Problem: Tasked with having users validate their reports. Users have to have their reports validated against a master report file. If their data exist within the report its valid.
Master Report Example:
User Report Example:
If the entire row of cell data exist then the row entry is valid, if not than not valid.
Task 2: If not valid row entry, identify which cells make the entry invalid.
Resolutions: Have attempted using countifs statements but did not result in away to identify which cell was making invalid, just if the entire row entry was valid.
Assuming "User Report" is Sheet2 & "Master Report" is Sheet1, with "PO" located in A1.
is Sheet2, cell E2 :
=IF(A2="","",IFERROR(MATCH(1,INDEX((A2=Sheet1!A:A)*(B2=Sheet1!C:C)*(C2=Sheet1!F:F)*(D2=Sheet1!G:G),0,1),0),"NOT OK"))
and drag downwards.
Idea : based on the same logic as the last formula here , iferror will output "NOT OK" if no match is found.
Please share if it work/understandable/not. ( :

I have a "Report Deadline" column and "Date Report Issued" column on my table, and both are date-only columns with rows that can be blank. My goal is to add an additional column to the table that says "TRUE" only if the Report Deadline date has already passed AND there is not a date in the Date Report Issued column, it should show "FALSE" for any other scenario.
The formula I have created is shown below
=AND([#[Report Deadline]]<TODAY(),[#[Date Report Issued]]="",[#[Report Deadline]]>0)
But this formula seems to just display FALSE for all of the values, how can I correct it.
This worked for me (change the test for empty cell to isBlank()):
=AND([#[Report Deadline]]<TODAY(),ISBLANK([#[Date Report Issued]]),[#[Report Deadline]]>0)
Try this function. =if(and([column 1 reference]<Today(),not(isblank([column reference 2]))),true
Summary tab:
Source tab:
I'm having some trouble using index match combo and getting the data to reference correctly.
what I am trying to achieve is in a tab called "Summary" I have a calendar with range D5:O6. the first cell in the calendar should change everyday to reflect the current date which will change the rest of the row making a rolling calendar. I have a data reference sheet called "PFS" from which the data needs to be referenced.
The thing I'm having trouble with is that with the formula
=INDEX(PFS, MATCH(A8,Snames,0),MATCH(D5,Sdates,0))
is returning the top left intersection (B8 of the source tab) of A8 and D5 values smith, bob & 4-Aug. a cell that i have entered the value "Wrong Corner".
Snames A8:A9, Sdates D5:O5 are the rows and columns containing the dates and names from the Summary tab
what I need help with is why its returning the wrong intersection and what I can do different to get the data I'm looking for.
The correct return would be the number one, which I have conditionally formatted to turn the cell blue and blank the text
You don't show what PFS references to. It seems to start in A1.
You can either use a range that starts in the correct cell, or add the required offset to the Match results.
=INDEX(PFS, MATCH(A8,Snames,0)+2,MATCH(D5,Sdates,0)+2)
Also make sure that Sname and Sdates refer to the ranges in the Source tab, not the Summary tab.
on the below Schedule image I am trying to create a Drop Down List in the "Gland (A)" Column. Rather than just creating a list of all available "Glands" I want that list to be filtered based on the data within "CORES / PAIRS", "SIZE mm" and "CABLE TYPE". For this example we will use a "3c 16 BS5467, XLPE/SWA/PVC".
Schedule
To determine the filter for the list, the "ID Ø (mm)" and "OD Ø (mm)" for the select cable need to be taken in to consideration, see Cables image below. As you can see for the example we are using the cable has an "ID" of 15.5 and "OD" of 20.35.
Cables
Finally seen below in the Glands image, the "ID" from above needs to be within the "INNER MIN/MAX" and the "OD" needs to be within the "OUTER MIN/MAX".
Glands
So back to the first image in the "GLAND (A)" columns for row 4 the drop down list should be filtered and only show concatenated values:
151/RAC/B/M25
501/453/UNIV/B/M25
ICG/653/UNIV/B/M25
In two separate formulas I managed to VLOOKUP just the "OD" based on the cable types:
=VLOOKUP(B4&C4&E4,'Cables'!A$2:H$169,8,FALSE)
Then based on the retrieved value LOOKUP the "GLAND SIZE" from within the "OUTER MIN/MAX":
=LOOKUP(2,1/((F4>='Glands'!E$3:E$9 + 1)*(F4<='Glands'!F$3:F$9 - 1)),'Glands'!B$3:B$9)
The problem is I don't know how to include checking the "ID" as well, also to retrieve concatenated cells ("GLAND TYPE" and "GLAND SIZE") and then for them to be a Data Validation Drop Down List.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Ok, this is going to be hard to explain. I'll do my best. Maybe if we wrap this up in a dedicated sheet we won't make mistakes.
PHASE 1: create a new sheet.
Create a new sheet and name it "Calculations". We will put most of the stuff here. First of all we type "Selected row in Schedule" in the cell A1.
PHASE 2: determine what cable number is selected.
Since we have multiple entry of cable in the Schedule sheet, we will need multiple list of possible glades. Creating a dedicated list for each lane or costraining the user freedom would be unpractical. Therefore we need to know what row the user is selecting in the Schedule sheet. We have to use VBA. Right-click on the Schedule sheet name tag and click on "View code". Copy-paste this code in the window that has appeared:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
'Filling the cell A2 in the sheet Calculation with the row number of the selected _
cell in the scheet Schedule.
Sheets("Calculations").Range("A2").Value = ActiveCell.Row
'Preventing multiple selection in the F column of the sheet Schedule.
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Range("F:F")) Is Nothing Then
Target.Resize(1, 1).Select
End If
End Sub
This code will report in the cell A2 of the sheet Calculation the row number actually selected in the sheet Schedule. Everytime the selection is changed, the value changes. It also prevent the selection of multiple rows of the F column in Schedule sheet (the column where Glades dropdown list will be placed). You can test the code by changing the selection in the Schedule sheet and looking at the result in Calculations sheet.
PHASE 3: determine what type of cable is selected and its ID/OD.
In the Calculation sheet, type "Selected cable" in range B1. In range B2 type this formula:
=INDEX(Schedule!$A:$F,Calculations!$A$2,2)&INDEX(Schedule!$A:$F,Calculations!$A$2,3)&INDEX(Schedule!$A:$F,Calculations!$A$2,5)
This formula reconstruct the name we will search in the LOOKUP column of the Cables sheet. It's a series of INDEX functions, nothing really complicated.
Now that we know what to look for, we can extract its ID/OD. Type "ID" in the cell C1 and "OD" in cell D1. In cell C2 type this formula:
=VLOOKUP($B$2,Cables!$A:$H,7,FALSE)
In cell D2 type this formula:
=VLOOKUP($B$2,Cables!$A:$H,8,FALSE)
These formulas will search the cables' list in the Cables sheet and extract the ID/OD of the given one.
PHASE 4: create the filtered list.
Your glands' list has its first gland in the third row. So just to make it easier to crosscheck the data, we will place our formulas accordingly. In sheet Calculations type "List stage 1" in cell E2. In cell E3 type this formula:
=IF(AND(C$2>=Glands!C3,C$2<=Glands!D3,D$2>=Glands!E3,D$2<=Glands!F3),ROW(),"")
Drag it all the way down until it will be cover the same number of rows of the glands' list in the Gland sheet. This formula will "highlight" in what rows are the glands we are looking for (if there are any). At this point the list is very long, unsorted and presumably has a lot of blank cells. We need to sort it. In cell F2 type "List stage 2". In cell F3 type this formula:
=IF.ERROR(SMALL(E:E,ROW()-ROW(F$2)),"")
Drag this one down just like the previous one. Now we have a compact list of numbers. We need to translate them into glade's names. In cell G2 type "Filtered gland list". In cell G3 type this formula:
=IF.ERRORE(INDEX(Glands!A:B,F3,1)&"/"&INDEX(Glands!A:B,F3,2),"")
Drag it down again like previously did. We have our list.
PHASE 5: name the list.
We need to create a dynamic reference to the list to cut out all the blank cells. Define a new name calling it Gland_Filtered_List referred to this formula:
=INDIRECT("Calculations!$G$3:G" & ROWS(Calculations!$G$3:$G$1048576) -COUNT.BLANK(Calculations!$G$3:$G$1048576)+2)
PHASE 6: insert data validation.
In the Schedule sheet, create a data validation for the glands column using the list mode and Gland_Filtered_List as origin.
That should do the trick. Right now i have to hurry for work, so i can't check the explanation. Everything should be in order. Try this and ask any question. I'll answer later.
I'm trying to create an input/search field in an excel sheet that when someone enters data in the field, it starts autopopulating from X Range, when they find the data they want they hit enter and it pulls from Y Range.
Closest I've found is XLOOKUP, but I can't get it to work on a field when someone types into that field. I want this to work through column A of the entire sheet, so when the user goes to a new line it does the same as the line above.
So, input data into A4, while typing it search C:C and auto fills in as I type. Once I find what I like I hit enter and it pulls the cell next to the C cell I found the data on, resulting cell data, so D:D column.
I've tried inputing this into a dropdown validate field, but no go, just errors out:
=XLOOKUP(INDIRECT("a9"), C:C, D:D)
Maybe I have used the wrong phrase to search but I have not been able to find a solution to the following challenge for Excel/VBA:
In Sheet 1 I have a database of order data from cells A1 to F10. Each row contains data for one order. Column A contains the order number.
As first step I, in sheet 2, wish to make a search on the order number and retrieve all data for that order into cells A5 to F5 in sheet 2.
After reviewing the data (and running another macro to recalculate the sales price) I wish to have the revised data replace the original data in sheet 1.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you in advance!
The 1st part does not need macro.
vlookup (fkeres magyarul) is your function. If you put this function in A5-F5 fields in sheet 2, looking for a given order number, in Sheet1 $A$1:$F$10, entering the required column number, asking exact match (FALSE), it works nicely. I entered the functions parameters in my previous sentence.
The 2nd part needs macro which makes Copy Paste back.
OR
Look for the requested order row in sheet2 A5 cell with MATCH (HOL.VAN magyarul) function, like =MATCH(A1;Sheet1!A1:A10;0)
and put INDIRECT (INDIREKT magyarul) function, like =INDIRECT("Sheet1!B"&A5;TRUE) in B5, etc.
In this case the Copy-Paste back macro is (starting from Sheet2):
Myorder = Range("A5").Value
Range("B5:F5").Select ' A5 is the row number of order, not the order No
Selection.Copy
Application.Goto Reference:=Worksheets("Munka1").Range("A" & Myorder)
ActiveSheet.Paste
