What shop script can take data from Excel?

In one small shop, you need to put a computer to maintain a database of goods, and make a website. But since people far from IT work there, they need something simpler to account for goods. I think that an ex-fur-tree - just will be.
I would like them to edit themselves in Excel, store the file in some kind of dropbox, and the online store would take data from this file.
What is a ready-made solution that can solve such a problem?

Идея у вас просто отличная. Я бы даже сказал, что вы просто обязаны её реализовать! Но вряд ли вы найдёте такой "скрипт". Скорее всего придётся писать бакенд. Есть хороший компонент на java: docx4j (site, maven). Пусть вас не смущает приставка docx - он отлично читает excel. Просто он заточен под формат openxml, а весть msoffice сделан сейчас на нём (во всяком случае достаточно сильно соответствует этой спецификации). Пользовался одно время poi - но вот как-то не пошёл. Видел, что есть компонент для nodjs, но сам не пользовался.
As for dropbox, you still need to make a "forward" before it (your desire with dropbox is part of a workflow system such as sharepoint, but here it's too much). Can it be limited to uploading an excel file to the POST portal, "pulling" it there and adding it to the store's database?
PS
The file is docx, xlsx are regular zip archives of xml files. You can open and see how they are arranged from the inside.
