Hi there, I am proficient in creating automated data handling solutions and can develop an Excel system that meets your specific requirements. Using advanced Excel functions and VBA scripts, I will create FILE A to automatically extract data from FILE B located on an FTP server. FILE A will include dynamic filters, such as Brand and Price, to selectively process data. The processed data will then be output to FILE C in CSV format containing SKU, Quantity, and Price columns. Additionally, I will automate the saving of FILE C to another FTP folder and schedule this entire process to run daily at a specified time without manual intervention. Sincerely, Mir Niyazuddin

Hello, It will be a lot easier if FILE A is a Google Sheet instead of Excel file to input the filter parameters. Then I can write a Python script to be executed in AWS Lambda, which can be scheduled to run at regular intervals using AWS CloudWatch Events. That way everything will run in the cloud. The other option is to use Excel and automate the process with a VBA macro - download, filter, and upload the data to the FTP. For the daily updates, we can use the Windows Task Scheduler, but the PC has to be running at that time, but everything will be automated. Thank you for your time. -Petko
