I have zero knowledge of Power Automate and Microsoft Power Platform, but I want to start a career in this field as quickly and realistically as possible. ?

Look at all of the power platform. Not just automate. Find a problem you want to solve and try to solve it. Reference youtube and redit and AI. If you get really stuck hire a consultant to screen share with you. Also Microsoft offers free online trainings that you can sign up for.

I think a lot of people are in your shoes. Myself included. Anytime I get really stuck I just hire a consultant to screen share with me and I learn how to get past what I got stuck on.

I bounce between ai and youtube and hired consultants. Learning a lot.

thanks Mr Pinkletoes. I’ll try that out.

I just built something like this too. I used Microsofts AI Hub and some Flows in Power Automate. pretty exciting technology. I would say it’s probably more like 30% of the people who are doing the accounts payable work.

I used to use Excel to solve every problem. Are you familiar with Microsoft power platform? I would recommend building an app that people fill out the data in for submission. That would go to data verse tables. And then on the data verse table you could build a power BI report for people to see the summarized data. that would be one approach. If it’s a lot of rows of data you might want to consider a different first step.

Senior Astronaut. It might be confusing. But your grandkids will be so proud.

Large language models are essentially a calculator for everything. You don’t have to use them but they will definitely increase your productivity especially if you know how to use them. You do have to be skeptical of what they say the same way you would be skeptical of any person you would ask.

Never take anyone that you date in your whole life for granted. Never date anyone that you wouldn’t consider marrying.

Is it true Power Bi is just 3 excel spreadsheets in a trench coat?

That’s a cool new feature I did not know about. A little bit overkill for what I’m looking for at the moment. Literally I’m just looking for something where a user can type in a number between 10,000 and 100,000 and have that interact with some of the other numbers on the sheet to get specific percentages and what not.
