Office automation
Use case 1: Automating annual reports
Scenario
Jane, the Director of Administration at a 300-person tech company, creates an annual work summary for the board of directors at the end of each year. She collects year-end reports from eight departments—including R&D, marketing, sales, HR, and finance—and consolidates them into a single document, reusing the previous year's format and referencing the company's reports from the last three years. Previously, this manual process took at least two full days, as it involved sifting through over 50 Word and PDF documents to extract relevant paragraphs and repeatedly refine the content and format.
This year, she decided to try QoderWork CN.
File preparation
Jane created a folder on the desktop named "2024 Annual Summary Materials" and put all the relevant materials inside:
desktop/2024 annual summary materials/
├── 2022 annual work summary.docx
├── 2023 annual work summary.docx (template)
├── R&D department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── marketing department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── sales department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── human resources department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── finance department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── customer service department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── product department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── operations department - 2024 year-end report.docx
├── 2024 financial data summary.pdf
└── 2024 business indicator performance.xlsx
Three steps
-
Select the working directory
In QoderWork, create a task. At the bottom of the dialog box, click "Select working directory" and choose the 2024 Annual Summary Materials folder.
-
Enter the prompt
In the dialog box, enter the following prompt:
Read all documents in the folder and complete the following tasks: 1. Use "2023 annual work summary.docx" as the formatting template. 2. Extract key work achievements, critical performance metrics, and project highlights from each department's 2024 year-end report. 3. Incorporate core business figures, referencing the financial data summary and performance against business indicators. 4. Follow the writing style and section structure from prior years' summaries. 5. Generate the 2024 annual work summary report, including: an overall business overview, progress across business lines, team building and organizational development, and planning and outlook for the next year. 6. Maintain the formatting and layout of the template. Output the result as a Word document.
QoderWork CN overview
QoderWork CN automatically processed all 50+ documents in the folder, identified the template structure, and extracted key data and highlights from the eight departments' reports. It then combined this information with financial data and business metrics, emulated the writing style of previous summaries, and generated a complete annual work summary in just 6 minutes. Jane only had to make a few minor edits before submitting the draft that same day.
Ongoing use
The following year, Jane can simply add the new department reports to the folder and instruct QoderWork CN to generate the 2025 annual work summary based on the previous year's format. The more historical data the folder contains, the more accurately the report reflects the company's business development over time.

Tips and best practices
The success of this use case depends on two factors: standardized folder organization and a clear prompt structure.
Jane organized over 50 documents into a single folder with a consistent naming convention (DepartmentName-Year-FileType), allowing QoderWork CN to understand the full context in a single pass. The prompt performs three key tasks:
-
Explicitly specify the template file ("Use '2023 Annual Work Summary' as the format template") to ensure a consistent output format.
-
List all data sources (department reports, financial data, and business metrics) to ensure completeness.
-
Define the output structure (business overview, business segments, team building, and future outlook) to provide a framework for the generated content.
With the folder as the source and the prompt as the blueprint, QoderWork CN generates a draft in one pass.

Case study 3: Technical presentation for a client pitch
Pain points
Presales engineers manually create solution PPTs tailored to specific customer requirements and align them with the presentation's talk track. This multi-step process, which includes understanding requirements, structuring the solution, designing the PPT, writing a script, and planning for the Q&A session, is time-consuming and difficult to quantify or control.
After adopting QoderWork CN
QoderWork CN automatically generates a proposal presentation—containing a customer background, pain point analysis, solution architecture, and value comparison—and an accompanying 30-minute script from the customer data and solution documents in a folder.
Prompt example
Review all materials in the folder and prepare for the "Cloud Migration Solution Defense for a Financial Services Customer":
1. Identify the core pain points and key requirements in the customer requirements document.
2. Design a solution using the provided materials and relevant industry success stories.
3. Create a presentation of about 20 slides covering: customer background, pain point analysis, solution architecture, implementation plan, value comparison, and success stories.

Data processing
Use case 5: Foreign trade technical documents
Customer stories
Zhou, a merchandiser at an apparel trading company for eight years, dreads processing tech packs from international clients—20+ page PDFs that contain over 30 measurement points, specialized English terminology, a tolerance chart, and fractional values for seven different sizes.
Previously, her workflow involved opening a PDF, translating it line-by-line, and manually entering each number into Excel. This process, which took two to three hours per tech pack, was highly error-prone. For example, a single mistake last year—misreading half an inch as a quarter-inch—forced a complete batch rework, costing the company over 200,000 yuan.
Recently, her team lead suggested she try QoderWork CN.
Prepare files
Zhou put the customer's latest tech pack in a folder:
desktop/orders-2024SS-customer-ABC/
├── ABC-SS24-Style001-TechPack.pdf
├── ABC-SS24-Style002-TechPack.pdf
└── ABC-SS24-Style003-TechPack.pdf
Three steps
-
Select the working directory
In QoderWork CN, select the
Order-2024SS-ClientABCfolder. -
Enter the prompt
In the dialog, enter the following prompt:
These are English Tech Pack PDF files from the client. Process each one as follows: 1. Extract all Points of Measurement (POM) and translate the English technical terms to Chinese. 2. Organize the data into an Excel table with the following structure: - Columns: Part to Measure / English Name / Chinese Name / Tolerance (+/-) - Rows: Values for each size: S / M / L / XL / XXL / XXXL 3. Preserve the original precision for fractional values, such as 1/2" and 3/4". 4. Create a separate sheet for each style, and include the style number in the sheet name. Please pay special attention to the accuracy of fractional units, as it directly impacts production quality.
How QoderWork CN works
QoderWork CN automatically processed the three PDF files, identifying the complex table layouts and English terms. Within 10 minutes, it generated a standard bilingual size chart in Excel. Zhou reviewed the output and found that all data for the 30+ measurement points and seven sizes was accurate, including the easily confused fractional units.
Next steps
To process new orders, Zhou does the following:
-
Place the new tech pack PDF in the corresponding order folder.
-
Tell QoderWork CN, "We have tech packs for two new styles. Please process them using the previous format."
QoderWork CN automatically detects and outputs new files in the same format. Jane also uses it for cross-comparison. Using a prompt like "Compare the size differences between Style001 and Style002 and highlight any discrepancies," she can now complete in two minutes a task that used to take an entire afternoon.

Ensures 100% accuracy, preventing costly losses from scoring errors. |
|
Cumulative benefits |
A standardized order folder structure streamlines processing. |
User query
"It's 100% accurate, saving us hundreds of thousands."
Usage tips
The core technique for this use case is precisely defining the output format and precision in the prompt.
Instead of a vague request like "Help me organize the Tech Pack," Zhou's prompt precisely defines the Excel column structure (measurement point, English name, Chinese name, tolerance) and row structure (sizes S, M, L, XL). She even specifies critical requirements, such as "maintain original precision for fractional values" and "pay special attention to the accuracy of fractional units." Building quality guardrails into the prompt directly determines the output's reliability.
Another best practice is to organize files into order-specific folders, such as orders-2024SS-clientABC. For subsequent orders, you can simply place the files in the corresponding folder to reuse the workflow.
For precision-sensitive tasks, clearly define the desired output format and critical constraints in your prompt.
Case 6: Consolidated declaration for multi-factory shipments
Scenario: Pain Points
Each OEM factory provides its packing list in a unique format. These lists must be merged and then split into two—one for the United States and one for Canada. The style number, carton number, and quantity for each size must match exactly. This manual copy-and-paste process is highly error-prone, as a single mistake, such as a broken carton number sequence or an incorrect quantity, requires a complete rework of the customs declaration documents.
Using QoderWork CN
Select the folder containing the factory packing lists, and QoderWork CN automatically analyzes them, splits the data by destination, generates a customs declaration summary, and assigns sequential carton numbers.
Prompt example
The folder contains packing lists from three factories in Excel format. Complete the following steps:
1. Read all packing lists and identify the style number, carton number, and quantity for each size.
2. Merge the data and split it by destination into a "US order summary table" and a "Canada order summary table".
3. Renumber the carton numbers sequentially starting from 001, with no gaps.
4. Add a summary row to the end of each table showing the total carton count and total piece count.
5. Ensure the style numbers and quantities for each size are accurate, then output the results in Excel format.
Next steps
Create a folder for each shipment batch (e.g., 2024-03-shipment-batch-1), allowing you to select and process it directly for customs declaration.

Challenges
Manually extracting and consolidating fields from eight bilingual PDF purchase orders into Excel takes at least half a day.
After using QoderWork CN
QoderWork CN automatically reads all PDFs in a folder, recognizes complex layouts, and extracts 280 order details—all in just 28 minutes. Users can then encapsulate this workflow as a reusable Skill.
Example prompt
Read all PDF purchase orders in the folder:
1. Extract key data from each purchase order: order number, supplier, SKU, product name, quantity, unit price, total amount, and delivery date.
2. Generate summary tables: consolidated, by supplier, and by product category.
3. Flag line items where the unit price deviates by more than 20% from the average price for that SKU.
4. Export the results to Excel.

Content creation
Case 13: Materials → PPT → Narrated video (End-to-end)
Use case
Sun is an instructor at a civil service exam prep center. His question bank for structured interviews is stored as a JSON data file containing questions, reference answers, and explanations. Previously, to create video lessons from this content, he would first compile the material into a PPT presentation and then use screen recording software to narrate each slide. For a set of 30 questions, this entire workflow would take at least two days.
He wants to see if QoderWork CN can get this link working.
Preparing files
desktop/civil service exam course production/
├── structured interview question bank-part1.json
├── answer framework template.pptx (optional, a PowerPoint style reference)
└── intro and outro assets/ (optional)
Three steps
-

Set the
Civil Service Exam Course Productionfolder as the working directory. -
Generate PPT
Read "structured-interview-questions-batch1.json" and generate one slide for each question: - Top half of the slide: The question content - Bottom half of the slide: Key points from the reference answer (listed as bullet points) - Final slide: A summary of the answering framework Use the color scheme and font style from "answering-framework-template.pptx". -
Generate video with voice-over
Convert the generated PPT into a video: - Add a conversational voice-over to each slide based on the reference answer. - Automatically adjust the display duration for each slide based on its content length. - Output the video as an MP4 file.
What QoderWork CN Does
QoderWork CN uses JSON data to automatically generate a 30-slide structured PPT handout. It then converts each slide into conversational narration to create a teaching video. This process reduces what was once a two-day task to a single morning.

Training, education, and knowledge sharing—any scenario that involves turning source materials into a course. |
Best practices
The key technique in this use case is a combination of step-by-step prompts and skill encapsulation, ideal for complex, long end-to-end workflows.
Instead of trying to manage the entire JSON → PPT → video workflow in a single prompt, Sun broke the task down into two steps:
-
The first step focuses on PPT generation: reading data and applying the template style.
-
The second step focuses on video composition: adding voice-overs and controlling timing.
QoderWork CN runs more reliably because each step has well-defined input and output. If you're not satisfied with an intermediate result, you can adjust just that step without restarting the entire process.
After validating the workflow, Sun used create-skill to encapsulate it as a Skill that teaching assistants can call directly, which enables "build once, use forever" reuse across the team.
Break down a complex task into step-by-step prompts, and encapsulate a proven workflow as a Skill to create your own custom automated pipeline.

E-commerce operations
Case 17: Daily data automation for cross-border e-commerce
Scenario
For three years, Alex has run a cross-border e-commerce business, managing five stores and over 200 SKUs. Each morning, he would log into each of his five store backends to export the previous day's sales data, paste it into a summary spreadsheet, and manually calculate daily changes and ranking shifts. This daily routine alone took over an hour, and in the rush, he would often miss a store.
He could automate this process with QoderWork CN.
Example prompt
Automate daily data synchronization for e-commerce stores:
1. Log in to the seller console for each of the following sites:
- US site: [URL]
- European site: [URL]
- Japanese site: [URL]
- ...
2. On each site’s business report page, export yesterday’s sales.
3. Consolidate all site data into a single Excel file containing:
- Sales, orders, and return rate for each site.
- The top 10 best-selling SKUs and their performance.
- Day-over-day change, with any decreases highlighted in red.
4. Generate a brief daily operations summary (within 200 words).
How QoderWork CN works
QoderWork CN uses browser automation to log in to each store backend, navigate to the reports page, and export the data. It then merges and analyzes this data to generate a summary report. Each morning, Wang Lei opens his computer and finds the report already waiting for him in the folder.
Continued use
Save this workflow as a Skill. You can then run it daily by simply saying, "Generate the daily store report." As your data accumulates, you can also ask follow-up questions, such as, "Which SKUs are showing a consistent sales decline over the past 30 days?"

Best practices
The core technique for this use case is browser automation and skill encapsulation, ideal for repetitive tasks like logging into websites and performing actions.
In this scenario, QoderWork CN does not use local files; instead, it needs to open a browser, log in to multiple consoles, and export data. This process is guided by a prompt that specifies the URL and operation path for each site, for example, "export yesterday's sales data from the business report page," enabling QoderWork CN to navigate and perform these actions as a human would.
A daily, repetitive task can be perfectly encapsulated as a Skill. Once Alex saves the workflow as a reusable Skill, he can run it daily with a simple command like "Generate the daily store report." With its browser automation, QoderWork CN can not only process local files but also interact directly with web-based systems.
The best way to save significant time on repetitive tasks—such as logging into websites, exporting data, and performing backend operations—is to encapsulate the workflow into a reusable Skill with browser automation.

System management
Use Case 19: Deep-clean Mac disk
Scenario
Chen is a graphic designer with a 256 GB MacBook Pro. Recently, she's been getting frequent warnings about low disk space. With only 7 GB of available space left, she discovered that system data was consuming a staggering 124 GB. She doesn't know which files are safe to delete and finds the available tutorials long and confusing. She's worried that accidentally deleting system files could crash her computer.
On a friend's recommendation, she tried QoderWork CN.
Direct messages
You don't need to prepare a folder. In the QoderWork dialog, say:
My Mac has only 7 GB of available space left, and system data is taking up 124 GB.
Please do the following:
1. Analyze disk usage to identify large files and folders consuming space.
2. Identify what is safe to delete and what must be kept.
3. Provide a cleanup plan specifying how much space each action will free up.
4. Wait for my confirmation before starting the cleanup.
Important: Do not delete any system files or my work files. If you're unsure about a file, ask me first.
Working principle
QoderWork CN ran a system diagnosis and identified the largest consumers of disk space: 23 GB of development tool cache, 18 GB of unused container images, 31 GB of local snapshots, and 12 GB of application caches. It presented a cleanup plan detailing the estimated freed space, requiring Chen's confirmation for each item to proceed. In total, the process freed approximately 84 GB, increasing her available space from 7 GB to 91 GB.
Continuous Use
Once a month, Chen asks QoderWork CN, "Check my disk space and see if anything needs cleanup." QoderWork CN quickly scans her system and provides recommendations, effectively acting as her on-demand IT assistant.

Best practices
This use case's core technique is direct conversation with a safety confirmation mechanism—no folders or complex preparation needed.
Chen's approach is simple: she describes the problem directly ("available space is down to 7 GB, and system data takes up 124 GB") and adds two key instructions to the prompt: "Wait for my confirmation before proceeding with the cleanup" and "If you are unsure about anything, ask me first." These instructions place QoderWork CN in a safe mode, where it first diagnoses the issue, then recommends a solution, and waits for confirmation before acting. This avoids the risk of accidental deletion.
This use case shows that not all tasks require a folder. For scenarios such as system management and troubleshooting, a direct interaction is sufficient if you clearly describe the current situation and define the security boundary.
For tasks involving system operations, always instruct the model to present a solution and wait for confirmation before proceeding. This is a security-first best practice.
Use case 20: Storage space analysis and visualization report
Pain points
Without data on how file types use your disk space, you're left to guess what to clean up.
After using QoderWork CN
Analyze storage space usage and generate a visual HTML report showing the storage breakdown by file type.

Preparation
Case 23: Automatically generating a test
Use case
Ms. Zhao teaches eighth-grade physics to three separate classes. Before each monthly exam, her most challenging task is creating test papers. She must balance question types (multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, experimental, and calculation), control a precise difficulty gradient (60% basic, 30% intermediate, and 10% advanced), and ensure all chapter concepts are covered. In the past, this meant manually searching the question bank, hand-picking questions, and formatting the paper for printing. Each test took at least three hours to create. Creating a unique test for each of her three classes tripled her total workload.
File preparation
Ms. Zhao organizes her teaching materials in a folder:
desktop/Grade 8 physics-exam prep materials/
├── curriculum standard-Grade 8 physics.pdf
├── Chapter 1-mechanical motion-key points.docx
├── Chapter 2-acoustic phenomena-key points.docx
├── Chapter 3-changes in states of matter-key points.docx
├── past monthly exam papers.docx
└── class grades-last monthly exam.xlsx (optional, to create questions targeting weak points)
Three steps
-
Select the working directory
Select the "Grade 8 physics-exam creation materials" folder.
-
Enter exam requirements
Please generate 3 versions of a Grade 8 physics monthly exam based on the knowledge point documents and curriculum standards in the folder: 1. Scope: Chapters 1 to 3 2. Question distribution: 10 multiple-choice questions (3 points each), 8 fill-in-the-blank questions (2 points per blank), 2 experimental questions (16 points total), and 2 calculation questions (14 points total), for a total of 100 points 3. Difficulty ratio: 60% basic, 30% intermediate, and 10% advanced 4. The 3 versions must cover the same knowledge points but contain unique questions. 5. Each version must include a standard answer key and a scoring rubric. 6. Reference the previous monthly exam results to add more weight to topics where the class showed weakness, such as the graphical analysis of changes in states of matter. 7. Output as Word documents formatted for printing.
How QoderWork CN works
At Teacher Zhao's request, QoderWork analyzed the curriculum standards and topic documents to generate three exam versions of comparable difficulty, each with a detailed scoring rubric. It also used data from the previous monthly exam to add two image analysis questions about changes in states of matter, precisely targeting the class's areas of weakness.
Next steps
Before each monthly exam, Ms. Zhao now only needs to:
-
Add the knowledge point documents for the new chapter to the folder.
-
Tell QoderWork CN, "Expand the scope to Chapter 4 and generate a new set of test papers based on the same criteria."
-
For the final exam review, you can also say, "Based on all monthly exam results from this semester, generate personalized practice questions for each student to target their weak knowledge points."

Best practices
The core of this use case involves folder management and fine-grained parameterized prompts.
Ms. Zhao did two things right:
-
Centralized material management: Organize all materials, including knowledge point documents, curriculum standards, past exam papers, and class grades, into a single folder to create a complete item bank for QoderWork CN.
-
Use specific numbers to quantify all requirements: Define the question type distribution with exact point values (for example, 10 multiple-choice questions at 3 points each), specify the difficulty ratio as a percentage (60% basic, 30% intermediate, and 10% advanced), and assign greater weight to questions targeting weak knowledge points.
A parameterized prompt is more effective than a vague instruction like "create a moderately difficult test," because it provides QoderWork CN with clear constraints, making the output quality easier to control.
To take QoderWork CN's output from "close enough" to "exactly right," specify parameters like quantity, ratio, and score as specific numbers in your prompt.
Getting information
Use Case 24: Crawl macroeconomic news and send emails
Use case
Lin is an investment researcher at a private equity fund. Every morning before 8:00 a.m., he has one task: browse six information sources, including multiple financial information websites and the central bank's official website, find important macroeconomic news, and compile a briefing for his team. This seemingly simple task actually takes 40 to 50 minutes each day—a manual process of opening websites, flipping through pages, assessing importance, copying and pasting, formatting, and sending the email. Each step is essential.
direct conversation
No need for folders. Just tell QoderWork CN what to do:
Create a daily macroeconomic news briefing:
1. Crawl the following websites for major news from the past 24 hours:
- A financial news platform (xxx.com)
- The People's Bank of China website (www.pbc.gov.cn)
- IMF News (www.imf.org/en/News)
- Federal Reserve statements (www.federalreserve.gov)
- National Bureau of Statistics (www.stats.gov.cn)
2. Filter for news about macroeconomic policy, interest rates, exchange rates, GDP, and inflation.
3. For each news article, include the title, a single-sentence summary, and the original link.
4. Sort the articles by importance into two categories: "Must-Read" and "Reference".
5. Format the results as a concise email.
6. Send the email to team@example.com with the subject "Macroeconomic Daily-{today's date}".
How QoderWork CN works
QoderWork CN uses browser automation to scrape relevant news from six websites. It then filters and sorts the news by importance, generates a concise briefing, and automatically sends it to the team mailbox each morning.
Continued use
Once you encapsulate this workflow as a Skill, you can run it daily with a simple command like "Generate today's macro report." For special events, such as a central bank interest rate cut, you can also make a more complex request like "Perform an in-depth analysis of today's interest rate cut and generate a special report for the team."

Usage tips
This use case combines browser automation, email integration, and Skill encapsulation to create a fully automated, end-to-end workflow: collection → curation → delivery.
Lin's prompt serves several key purposes:
-
Specify a list of websites and filter keywords (macroeconomic policy, interest rates, exchange rates, etc.)
-
Define the output format (title + one-sentence summary + source link)
-
Configure email delivery (recipient and email subject format)
With a single prompt, QoderWork CN handles the entire workflow, from data collection to email delivery. Once encapsulated as a Skill, this workflow becomes a recurring daily automated task.
Browser automation isn't just for managing the backend; it can also gather information. Combined with email sending and Skill encapsulation, it becomes a personal information assistant.
IT tools
Use case 25: Extract stack trace from website crash
Use case
Zhang is a backend engineer. His company has an internal crash log platform. Whenever a production issue occurs, he must manually open a browser, log in to the platform, locate the corresponding crash record, copy the stack trace, and paste it into a document for analysis. The process isn't complex, but repeating it several times a day is tedious. To make matters worse, his login session frequently expires, so he has to repeatedly enter his password.
Direct conversation
Describe your request in QoderWork CN:
To extract information from the crash log platform:
1. Open your browser and navigate to http://crash.internal.company.com.
2. If prompted, log in.
3. In the search box, enter the crash ID: CRASH-2024-03-001.
4. Extract the full stack trace.
5. Save it as a Markdown document, ensuring the filename includes the crash ID.
6. Analyze the stack trace to make a preliminary determination of the potential cause of the crash.
What QoderWork CN does
QoderWork CN automates a complete browser workflow, including login, navigation, search, and extraction. It saves the stack trace as a formatted Markdown document and generates a preliminary cause analysis, such as "A NullPointerException occurred at UserService.java:128, which may indicate that the user object was not initialized."
Next steps
Zhang packaged this operation as a skill. Now, whenever he receives an online alert, he can simply say, "Extract and analyze the stack trace for CRASH-2024-03-002." QoderWork CN automatically handles the entire workflow, so he can go straight to the analysis results.

Best practices
This use case uses browser automation + Skill encapsulation to automate frequent, repetitive tasks.
Zhang's workflow is repetitive, performed several times a day: login → search for a crash ID → copy the stack trace. His prompt cleverly adds a requirement: "also analyze the stack trace and provide a preliminary assessment of the crash cause." This requirement elevates QoderWork from a simple data mover to a basic diagnostic assistant, performing a first-pass analysis as it extracts the data.
Once you've encapsulated the operation as a skill, you can simply say, "Extract and analyze the stack trace for CRASH-xxx," passing the crash ID as a variable.
Simple, repetitive daily tasks are ideal use cases for browser automation and Skill encapsulation.
Hands-on guide: Getting the most out of QoderWork with folders
Over half of the previous use cases read directly from a local folder. Organizing your folders and selecting one as the working directory is key to getting the most from QoderWork CN.
This section illustrates the workflow with an example: a teacher managing exam scores for a class.
Working directory importance
QoderWork CN lets you select a local folder as the working directory. Once you do:
-
QoderWork CN reads all files directly from the folder, eliminating the need for individual uploads.
-
QoderWork CN automatically saves processing results back to the folder, eliminating manual downloads.
-
QoderWork CN immediately detects and processes newly added files in the folder.
Just place the files in the correct location and leave the rest to QoderWork CN.
Get started in 3 steps
-
Organize your folders
Group files by topic or task into a single folder. Use clear folder names and a consistent file naming convention.
-
Select the folder in QoderWork CN
In QoderWork CN, create a task. In the dialog box, click "Select working directory" and choose your folder. QoderWork CN can then access all files within it.
-
Describe your requirements in natural language
You do not need to write code or specify a file path. Simply describe your requirements. QoderWork CN automatically identifies and processes the files in the working directory.
Managing class exam scores
In this section, we'll use a teacher scenario to walk you through the entire process, from folder organization to analysis with QoderWork.
Scenario
Ms. Zhang is a middle school math teacher who gets a spreadsheet with her students' scores after each exam. Over the course of the semester, she has collected four of these spreadsheets in a folder. She wants a comprehensive overview of her class's performance to identify improving students, pinpoint those needing extra attention, and track overall class trends.
-
Organize the folder
Ms. Zhang creates a folder on her desktop named "Grade 8 Class 2-Math Scores" and saves each exam's scoresheet inside:
desktop/Grade 8 Class 2-Math Scores/ ├── First Monthly Exam Scores.xlsx ├── Midterm Exam Scores.xlsx ├── Second Monthly Exam Scores.xlsx └── Final Exam Scores.xlsxNoteInclude the exam name or date in the filename, such as "2024-03-Monthly Exam Scores.xlsx". This allows QoderWork to automatically analyze the data chronologically.
-
Select the working directory
In QoderWork, create a task. At the bottom of the dialog box, click "Select working directory" and select the "Grade 8 Class 2-Math Scores" folder.
-
Let QoderWork analyze
In the dialog box, enter the following:
Read all exam scoresheets in the folder and perform the following analysis: 1. For each exam, calculate the class average, highest score, lowest score, and passing rate. 2. Identify the score trend for each student across all exams. 3. Find the top 5 most improved students and the top 5 students with the largest score drops. 4. Generate a visual class performance analysis report. 5. Provide recommendations for students who require special attention.QoderWork automatically reads all Excel files, performs the data analysis, and saves the analysis report to the folder. Ms. Zhang can then open the folder to view the analysis report.
Next steps
After the next exam, Ms. Zhang only needs to:
-
Place the new score sheet in the same folder.
-
Open QoderWork CN (if the working directory is unchanged, you don't need to reselect it).
-
Say, "New exam scores have been added, please update the analysis report."
The entire process takes less than five minutes. As data accumulates, QoderWork CN's analysis becomes increasingly valuable. For example, it can identify a student whose performance has consistently declined since the third exam, enabling early intervention.

Folder management
-
Follow a naming convention: Include a date or sequence number in your file names, such as
2024-03-Monthly-Exam-Scores.xlsxor01-First-Monthly-Exam.xlsx. This practice allows QoderWork to automatically determine their order. -
Use one folder per topic: Avoid mixing unrelated files. For example, keeping Chinese scores and math scores in separate folders improves the accuracy of QoderWork's analysis.
-
Maintain consistent formatting: Use the same template for similar files. For example, using the same column names—such as
Name,Student ID, andScore—across all exam result files enables QoderWork to align the data automatically. -
Use subfolders for organization: For large sets of files, create subfolders organized by date or category. QoderWork can read files within them recursively.
-
Build your dataset over time: The more data a folder contains, the more valuable the analysis becomes. Regularly place files in their appropriate folders to streamline future analysis.
