Although your question is not clear, it seems you are trying to achieve number column by matching answer column. You can try INDEX/MATCH following way.
=INDEX(B2:E2,,MATCH(A2,$B$1:$E$1,0))

e.g. I have a list of race results:
A B C D E F...
NAME P. RACE1 RACE2 RACE
abc =? 1 3 3
bcd 3 2 4
cde 4 4 2
def 2 1 1
and another sheet with points for each result:
A B
PLACE POINT
1 10
2 5
3 2
4 1
Is it possible to get the total points in sheet1 column B based on the race results in column C-E..?
Is it a connection from VLOOKUP and SUM?
Yes, that's possible. You can use a SUMPRODUCT formula for that. You may use this one in column B:
=SUMPRODUCT((C2:E2=$A$13:$A$16)*$B$13:$B$16)
Your result will look like this:
This is an array function. The term C2:E2=$A$13:$A$16 will check for race 1 to 3 if it was 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th place. This will result in an "imaginary" array of TRUE and FALSE. For name "abc", it will look like that.
Those results are then multiplied with the points from B13:B16 and the sum is formed.
In Excel O365, one could use:
Formula in B2:
=SUM(VLOOKUP(C2:E2,H$2:I$5,2))
Thanks so much for looking at my question! I am trying to create a formula that subtracts a specific value from another formula. However, that specific value may change.
Example:
A B C D
1 1 100 =(2000 - ( if A = 1, i want to subtract the C value where B =1))
1 2 250
1 3 310
1 4 .
2 1
2 2 =((2000 - ( if A = 2, i want to subtract the C value where B =1))
2 3
2 4
3 1
3 2
3 3
3 4
(A,B,C,D are the columns)
Hopefully this makes sense! I am trying to subtract the C value that goes along with the B1 value for each different A.
I was thinking an index match of some sort but wasnt exactly sure how to do that when the A's change. Thanks so much in advance for help!
INDIRECT or INDEX functions can help you. See this answer.
Would something like a nested if function work for you here? For example:
=IF(A2=1,IF(B2=1,2000-C2,"Enter calculation if B2<>1"),"Enter calculation if A2"<>1)
If this works, then you can simply copy/paste the function down the rows in column D.
I want to find a way for Excel to automatically give me the following 'interval':
Month 1 2 3 4 5 6
Demand 1 0 0 1 0 1
'Interval' 0 0 0 3 0 2
The 'interval' shows the amount of months between the demands. Is this doable in some sort of way? I couldnt find a function in Excel to do this. Maybe there is a way in VBA? I need this for the CROSTON forecasting method.
Thank you in advance for your time and effort!

Count the number of consecutive zeros in the row above and adjust. In B3 enter:
=IF(B2=0,0,COUNTIF($B$2:B2,"=0")-SUM($A$3:A3))
and copy across:
Assuming the 3 columns are A, B and C use:
=MATCH(1,Bn:B1,0)-1
where Bn its the n of C
I'm looking for a way to find the first specific value above a certain cell.
Using the example below, in the result column every time I hit a A in COL2, I need to substract the value in COL1 to the first A value above.
The trouble seems finding a way to keep the range dynamic...
I thought of =IF(B5="A";A5-INDIRECT("A"&MATCH("A";B:B;0));"")
But of course that only works for the first one as Match will always pick up the first one.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Example :
COL1 COL2 Result
1 A
2 0
3 0
4 A 4 - 1 = 3
5 0
6 A 6 - 4 = 2
7 0
8 0
9 0
10 A 10 - 6 = 4
Try this:
=IF(AND(ROW(B2)<>2,B2="A"),A2-INDEX($A$1:$A1,AGGREGATE(14,6,ROW($1:1)/($B$1:$B1="A"),1)),"")
The AGGREGATE() Function was introduced in 2010.
In D2 enter =IF(B2="A",A2-INDIRECT("A"&MATCH("A"&(E2-1),F:F,0)),"")
In E2 enter =IF(B2="a",COUNTIFS($B$2:B2,"a"),"")
In F2 enter =B2&E2
Copy formulas from D, E and F down all your rows
Column D is the result you're looking for
I am trying to create an excel formula using SUM and SUMIF but cannot find how to.
I have a first column(A) which is the total time of a piece of work and then for each row the time spent in that task during each day(columns B, C, ...).
For each day(columns B, C, ...), the formula would return the sum of only those values in column A that(for that specific column), relate to task that have been completed that day: the sum of all cells within a row is equals or more than the time the task was allocated.
Example for one 12-hours task:
A B C D E
12 4 6 2 0
Using the formula:
A B C D E
12 4 6 2 0
0 0 0 12 0
where 12 is displayed in column D because 4 + 6 + 2 = 12(Column A)
Second example(3 tasks):
A B C D E
10 9 0 1 0
21 8 8 5 0
5 0 0 3 2
Using the formula:
A B C D E
10 9 0 1 0
21 8 8 5 0
5 0 0 3 2
0 0 0 31 5
Where:
31(Day D) = 10(Task 1 is finished that day) + 21(Task 2 is finished that day too)
5(Day E) = Task 3 is finished that day
Tried this formula (for Day B):
SUMIF(B1:B3,">=A1:A3",A1:A3)
(Sum those values in column A if the cells in that row p to column B(in this case just B) are >= than those iterated).
Then for column C, it would be,
SUMIF(C1:C3 + B1:B3,">=A1:A3",A1:A3)
The above examples did not work(first returns zero, second is an invalid formula),
Any ideas?
Thank you.
Formula below given by user ServerS works fine:
Col B:
=IF(SUM(B2)=A2,A2,0)+IF(SUM(B3)=A3,A3,0)+IF(SUM(B4)=A4,A4,0)+IF(SUM(B5)=A5,A5,0)
Col C:
=IF(SUM(B2:C2)=A2,A2,0)+IF(SUM(B3:C3)=A3,A3,0)+IF(SUM(B4:C4)=A4,A4,0)+IF(SUM(B5:C5)=A5,A5,0)
Col D
=IF(SUM(B2:D2)=A2,A2,0)+IF(SUM(B3:D3)=A3,A3,0)+IF(SUM(B4:D4)=A4,A4,0)+IF(SUM(B5:D5)=A5,A5,0)
However there are two inconvenients:
if new rows are added it needs to be adapted and include another IF(). Would be better to have a generic SUM if IF's
Trying to propagate the formula to adjacent cells is not possible as it would change part of the formula like "=A2,A2,0" to "=A3,A3,0" which needs to keep the same.
Any other ideas that improve this, if possible, are appreciated.
You can avoid using IF with a sumproduct. This method allows use to insert any row you want. Make sure range are correct (eg A2:A5 with 5 the last row used). I would go for this :
in column B :
=SOMMEPROD(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5)))
in column C :
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5+C2:C5)))-B6
in column D
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5+C2:C5+D2:D5)))-C6-B6
in column E
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5+C2:C5+D2:D5+E2:E5)))-D6-C6-B6
