Track Your Excel-to-Power BI Migration in One Sign-Off-Gated Workbook
A macro-free workbook that turns a risky Excel-to-Power-BI mandate into an inventory, slice, reconciliation, and sign-off record.
How does this Blueprint help you? A macro-free .xlsx workbook with five tabs: Pack Inventory, Migration Slices, Reconciliation Log, Sign-offs, and Plan Summary.
Why this exists
It gives the owner a visible inventory, slice plan, reconciliation log, and sign-off gate before any cutover decision.
Who will use it
An Excel-strong reporting pack owner who needs to prove a safe Power BI migration plan before numbers change.
Blocker it removes
Leadership wants the pack moved to Power BI, but hidden rules, manual adjustments, and trust risk mean the owner needs an evidence-backed migration plan.
V1 proof
The sample workbook demonstrates all statuses and blocks sign-off while any variance is open.
How this Blueprint becomes a working result.
A Blueprint is the plan for creating a named result. A Course teaches; a Briefing helps you decide.
This is a guided setup plan. Nothing is installed, connected, sent, or changed automatically.
If you can follow instructions, you can finish this. AI explains each step and answers your questions as you go.
You remain responsible for the result. You make and approve each change in the existing tool. AI coaches you through the setup.
AI is the guide, not the builder. AI can explain the next step, draft safe examples, and help check the result. It cannot see or control the tool.
Stuck on a question? Just ask. If anything in the guided session is unclear, tell the AI. It explains, gives examples, and helps you answer before moving on.
Before you begin
Access to the named tool, permission to change its setup, and sample or low-risk data. Get a builder estimate before you approve or commit to the work.
Start safely
Begin with a reversible change and sample data. Confirm the result before using live information or sharing it.

A Blueprint runs inside an agentic AI tool such as Claude Cowork or Codex, where the AI reads the whole Blueprint and works through it with you. If you have never used one, our free plain-English guide gets you comfortable first.
