First, you should add some dummy excel to catalog item for reference like you can show a line on catalog item 'Download template for excel here'. so that all the users use the same template.
Secondly, you have two options, you can do it using script, if you are using flow designer you can create a custom script action. Parse the excel and insert or update the data in table directly using GlideRecord.
Other way is, you can use transform map, every time you have to attach new excel, run transform map and then delete the excel from data source. It will all be done using flow designer actions.
