Record daily XRF coating counts into operational logs

Automatically collect XRF inspection counters across Schedule by Zapier, Storage by Zapier, Formatter by Zapier, Zapier Tables, and Microsoft Excel. Create and update daily log records when the 7:00 AM run starts, counters are missing, or weekend logging kicks in—so you can store inspection history, update reporting rows, and reset counters without manual audits.

How this automation logs daily XRF counts

When the daily 7:00 AM run starts, delays can disrupt quality control recordkeeping. This automation retrieves inspection counters and formats dates and times, then creates Zapier Tables records and appends Microsoft Excel rows—so your team can audit daily output without chasing files.
