Hello all,

I'm looking for advice on the best way to merge one row of data from multiple tables into one table. I am happy to look up and learn the process, but I'm a bit confused about which option is best so I can direct my learning.

Solution needed for:

1. Workbook containing 6 worksheets, each worksheet is for a different location
2. Each worksheet has a table with identical column headers e.g. 'Month', 'Year', 'Highlight', 'Concerns", 'Risks' and each worksheet is updated monthly by the staff member responsible for that location
3. Once a month a report is required for Executives that pulls the latest month's row from each worksheet resulting in a report for, say January 2024 that contains the January entries for each of the six locations/worksheets
4. It needs to be clean looking, e.g. a snapshot with no need to drill down into information

Is anyone able to suggest the best method to do this so I can focus my learning in that direction? I have already looked into it but am a bit confused about data model, power query or whatever else might be the best solution, even if that is just an Excel formula.

Many thanks in advance for any suggestions. :)

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
If you know the sheet location , or get a copy of the sheets from the people and store it in your location Power Query can do the trick.
Take a look at this video:

It may not do exactly as you ask. But, you could probably figure out how to filter to get only the new records.
