Every morning

Every morning I total yesterday's orders from a CSV export and write up the same little report.

How it goes now

Open the export.Sum the column.Count the orders.Work out the average.Paste it into the report.Save.Same again tomorrow.

Every morning, the same numbers in the same places.

Tell Kitewell once

You
Build a workflow that reads orders.csv in my daily-report folder, totals the amount_usd column with Python, and writes a Markdown report to report.md every morning at 8:00.

That's the whole setup. Kitewell lays out every step for you to check, and nothing is saved until you apply it.

For your own version, copy this and fill in the blanks:

Make a workflow that every morning at 8:00 reads [my orders CSV], totals [the amount column] with Python, and writes a short report to [a file].

Sample data

Good to know

  • No AI and no network: it runs entirely on this computer and needs only Python 3.
  • The walkthrough in Build a workflow builds this one step by step, with sample data.
  • Your computer needs to be on and awake when it runs. A run missed while it slept starts when it wakes, within 24 hours by default.

What it needs

  • Python 3
