Excel Consolidation App issues while simple workflow is working fine

$

Hey Guys,

 

I am working on a simple data consolidation app by combining multiple excel sheets ( Located at different directories) to consolidate data.

I am updating the Input Data tool via file browse option but getting a strange error

"Input Data (8) 1 records were read from "xx\xx\*.xlsm" (`Standard Format - Data Capture$`) (ended by a downstream tool)"

of which there is no solution over web.

On the contrary if I do the same steps in a static macro it works perfectly.

 

This is the workflow with File browse which is giving the mentioned error.

This is the static workflow which is working fine.

Attached sample is only for two files. I need to do this for multiple files and it needs to be an app to ask user for the location of the files. I tried multiple ways(dynamic input taking feed from text input which is updated by File Browse) of achieving this even with a simple batch macro but every time I am getting the error "(ended by a downstream tool)". 

 

Any help will be much appreciated.

 

Cheers !
