I will clean excel and CSV data and remove duplicates
About this Gig
I clean Excel and CSV data into a consistent, usable spreadsheet, with a short log of the changes made.
Typical tasks:
Remove duplicates using your chosen matching rules
Standardise dates, text, names and number formats
Trim unwanted spaces and fix inconsistent entries
Split/combine columns and organise rows
Convert Excel/CSV files
Add simple formulas or restructure tables in Standard/Premium
Packages:
Basic: 100 rows, 10 columns, 1 file.
Standard: 500 rows, 15 columns, 1 file.
Premium: 2,000 rows total across up to 2 files, 20 columns per file.
One item means one data row, excluding headers; one table per file.
Delivery includes your cleaned Excel/CSV file, a cleaning log and clearly flagged missing or ambiguous values. I follow agreed rules and do not guess missing facts.
Please send the files, cleaning rules, duplicate criteria, required date/number formats and preferred output. Message me first for wider tables, multiple worksheets or complex formulas. Macros and advanced dashboards are outside these packages.

FAQ
What counts as an item, and what are the package limits?
One item is one data row, excluding headers. Basic: 100 rows, 10 columns, 1 file. Standard: 500 rows, 15 columns, 1 file. Premium: 2,000 rows total, 20 columns per file, up to 2 files. One table per file; please discuss wider tables or multiple worksheets first.
How do you handle duplicates and missing information?
I follow your agreed matching columns and formatting rules. Missing or ambiguous values are flagged rather than invented. Please tell me which columns identify duplicates and how conflicting entries should be handled.
What files and instructions should I provide?
Upload Excel (.xlsx) or CSV files and list the required cleaning steps, duplicate rules, date/number formats and desired output. Please identify the table or worksheet to clean and any values or columns that must be preserved.
What will I receive?
You receive a cleaned Excel or CSV copy, a short log of changes and clearly flagged unresolved values. Standard and Premium can include agreed simple formulas and restructuring within their row, column and file limits.
What does a revision cover?
A revision corrects or adjusts the file against the original cleaning rules and agreed layout. Extra files, additional rows or columns, new formulas or changed requirements may need a separate quote.
