" summary

Shows a concrete replacement for an Excel project tracker in a finance team: a Power Apps canvas UI with hidden SharePoint backend, Power Automate approval flows that block direct due‑date edits, and embedded Power BI reports that cut analyst cleanup time from days to near zero. Also builds an escalation hub that routes fraud and AML cases to specialists via automated emails. Demo proves the design and most automations run, though a couple of flows hiccup during live network/demo conditions; Copilot scaffolds the app schema.
