Shared Components or better solution?

In my Workspace environment I have to read the same input file in multiple workflows that run sequentially; recently my input excel file changed layout and I had to go trough the entire environment (more than 50 workflows) to update this excel reader to the new file layout.
I wonder if there is a way to avoid this repetitive work by using something like a component that reads my file and then next time I have to change it only do it in one place instead of many???

You can put the Reading and Preprocessing in a seperate Workflow and call it via Workflow Service at the different positions in your master Workflow

Hi Thanks for your reply, would the data table be available for use as the result of the call??

Thanks for the suggestion ill try that approach… however I still have the doubt about the reusability of a component…

Simple answer is yes if you set it up correctly :).
