Similar to what jimnotgym said, workflow apps are a huge timesavers but trying to get IT to make or host one is a headache.

A big one I saw while consulting for big enterprises was document processing (esp Excel/CSV). The lowest person on totem pole goes through 100 documents replacing or reformatting some value. Python is great for this!

Is there a way to upload documents into Anvil?

Absolutely! Check out this fifteen-minute demo, building a document storage/tracking system: https://anvil.works/blog/document-tracking

For more advanced processing we have have pandas, python-xslx, and all that good stuff ready to use :)
