Creating Automated Audit Reports with Copilot While Preserving Style and Format
Hello everyone, I’m looking to create a prompt or algorithm using Copilot or Copilot Studio that can help me generate automated audit reports based on a template document. I have a few specific requirements, and I’d appreciate any advice or experiences you might have: Preserving Format and Style: I want the generated reports to retain the font, style, and overall format of my template document. Mimicking Writing Style: I would like the new text added to the report to mimic my writing style as seen in other documents I've authored. Using Information from a Table Document: The new information to be added to the report should be drawn from a table document where I enter data according to specific categories. Challenges Encountered: I’m limited to referencing up to 3 documents. The documents are quite lengthy, and Copilot only used the first paragraph from each one. Does anyone have any ideas on how to achieve this with Copilot or Copilot Studio? I’d also appreciate any recommendations for other methods or complementary tools that could assist me with this task. Thank you in advance!asafw1Nov 09, 2024Copper Contributor459Views0likes1CommentTired of drowning in a sea of data? Level Up Your Excel Game with Copilot

Hi - I believe this has been posted before but didn't see a resolution. I had the Copilot icon appear in new Outlook in the top right/taskbar a couple of weeks ago. Recently it disappeared. The Summary By Copilot for an email thread and Draft with Copilot are still available; this is for the overall Copilot functions for Outlook. Obviously I have the correct license setup as the icon was there before but is no longer there now. Is working/does show in Word, PPT and Excel. Any info would be appreciated.kbathNov 08, 2024Copper Contributor17KViews0likes9CommentsCopilot teams - mobile issues
Hello I've published my copilot studio on Teams. Whenever I use the desktop computer, everything works fine. When I use the mobile application, if I am not authenticated on MS Teams on the desktop, when a generative node is called, the app simply does not respond, without returning any error. As soon as I access the chat on the desktop computer, all pending responses are returned and synchronized in the mobile app. If I am authenticated on MS Teams on the desktop, the mobile application also works fine. I also tested this: when I use the mobile application, if I have an active authentication on MS Teams in the mobile browser with the desktop site enabled, the mobile application also works fine. I have also tested the following, but always with the same result of the mobile application not responding to generative nodes: - I tried different Wi-Fi networks and mobile data - I reinstalled the app on my phone - I cleared the cache in the mobile app - I tested on both Android and iOS - I tested with different users Any idea why the mobile application doesn't work with generative nodes when I don't have an active authentication on a desktop version?RuiPereira1055Nov 08, 2024Copper Contributor387Views1like7CommentsMicrosoft's Copilot: A Frustrating Flop in AI-Powered Productivity
Microsoft's Copilot was supposed to be the game-changer in productivity, but it's quickly proving to be a massive disappointment. The idea was simple: integrate AI directly into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office tools to make our lives easier. But when it comes to actually performing specific functions, Copilot falls flat. Here’s the problem: when you ask Copilot to alter a document, modify an Excel file, or adjust a PowerPoint presentation, it’s practically useless. Instead of performing the tasks as requested, it often leaves you hanging with vague suggestions or instructions. Users don't want to be told how to perform a task—they want it done. This is what an AI assistant should do: execute commands efficiently, not just offer advice. What makes this even more frustrating is that other AI tools, like ChatGPT, can handle these tasks effortlessly. When you ask ChatGPT to perform a specific function, it does so without hesitation. It’s able to understand the request and deliver exactly what’s needed. But Copilot? It struggles with the basics, and that’s unacceptable, especially from a company like Microsoft. It’s frankly embarrassing that Microsoft can’t get this right. The whole point of integrating AI into these tools was to streamline workflows and boost productivity. But if Copilot can’t even manage simple tasks like formatting a document or adjusting a spreadsheet, then what’s the point? Users don’t need another tool that tells them how to do something—they need one that does it for them. Microsoft, you’ve missed the mark with Copilot. It's not just a minor inconvenience; it's a serious flaw that undermines the value of your Office suite. When other AI tools can easily accomplish what Copilot can't, it's time to reevaluate. Users expect more, and frankly, they deserve more for their investment. What’s been your experience with Copilot? Is anyone else finding it as frustrating as I am? Let’s talk about it.Stephanie HobackNov 08, 2024Copper Contributor5.3KViews7likes20Comments
