Hello,
and welcome to Bonita community :slight_smile:

  1. You can upload file using a Bonita form with a file widget. File can be stored internally in Bonita BPM database.
  2. One option would be to create a process with a system activity that read entries from a database (db connector) and for each entry creates a new process instance by passing variables, as well (using Bonita BPM API). Such a process can be started automatically by a start timer with the frequence you want. Another option is to write your own connector that reads data from the excel file and instantiates processes using Bonita BPM API.
    Hope this helps,
