    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

    You don’t need a special template to create an approval process in Excel. You can store your Excel file in OneDrive or SharePoint, convert your data into a proper table. Then, in Power Automate, create a flow triggered when a row is added or modified, use the “Start and wait for an approval” action with the approver pulled from the table, and write the approval results back to Excel.

    This setup is reusable and flexible, you can either maintain one central table with different approvers per area or duplicate the flow for different Excel tables. It allows you to track approvals, comments, and dates while easily adapting the process for different departments or teams across your company.
