How do I automate spreadsheet data cleaning and formatting for xlsx files?

Automate spreadsheet data cleaning by providing the source file path and formatting rules to normalize columns, apply business logic, and export a ready-to-use .xlsx workbook. The process leverages pandas and openpyxl to read, edit, and generate files with consistent formatting.

How do I preserve Excel formulas when converting CSV to xlsx?

Preserve Excel formulas during CSV to xlsx conversion by maintaining formula compatibility through openpyxl. The workflow requires LibreOffice for formula recalculation via a provided recalc script to ensure error-free, reproducible results across the generated workbooks.

Does spreadsheet automation work with both csv and xlsm file formats?

Spreadsheet automation works with .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, and .tsv formats. You can read, edit, and generate files across these formats while applying clean-up rules, managing formulas, and maintaining consistent formatting for business reports and data pipelines.

What is the best way to normalize columns in a customer data spreadsheet?

The best way to normalize columns in a customer data spreadsheet is applying automated clean-up rules to the source file. The process normalizes columns, applies business rules, and exports the cleaned data to .xlsx for reporting.

Do I need LibreOffice to recalculate formulas in generated xlsx workbooks?

You need LibreOffice to recalculate formulas in generated xlsx workbooks. The skill leverages a provided recalc script that uses LibreOffice to ensure formulas are recalculated accurately, producing error-free and reproducible spreadsheet results.

Why are my Excel formulas not calculating after automated data processing?

Excel formulas may not calculate after automated data processing if the recalc script is skipped. Running the provided LibreOffice recalculation step ensures all formulas in the generated .xlsx or .xlsm workbooks are evaluated correctly for reproducible results.
