Is there a way to create a formula that:
Shows unique same number for each item
Creates a new ID (the max existing value for code +1) for a new item based on the existing codes and items.
For example:
Code
Item
1000
A
1001
B
1002
C
1000
A
1000
A
1002
C
So, if i add item "D" its code would be 1004, and so on...
One way would be defining a list against each letter. How many letter can be for your actual case? With your given sample data you can try below-
=XLOOKUP(B2,{"A","B","C","D","E","F"},{1000,1001,1002,1003,1004,1005})
Edit: You can also try-
=IF(B2:B20="","",1000+XMATCH(B2:B20,SORT(UNIQUE(B2:B20)),0))

I understand this is a tough way of wording the problem I have. Please try and help me.
I want to create a Column called Orders which contains cells based on corresponding item values.
So if I have columns: FlatNo, Truffle, Pineapple, Mango, Chocochips; I want to create a column called Orders which has value:
FlatNo - A51
Mango - 1
Chocochips - 1
(if no values in the Pineapple & Truffle Columns, none show up in Orders columns)
See image
How do I do that ? Thank you in advance
You can use IF and &. & simply puts the different desired things altogether.
Hope the following formula will get you the result for column orders. I have put the number of each item ordered inside parentheses before the item.
="Flat No. "&A2&IF(ISBLANK(B2),"","-("&B2&")"&$B$1)&IF(ISBLANK(C2),"","-("&C2&")"&$C$1)&IF(ISBLANK(D2),"","-("&D2&")"&$D$1)&IF(ISBLANK(E2),"","-("&E2&")"&$E$1)
For instance the third order is shown like this: Flat No. E-23-(1)Truffle -1 Pc Rs 60-(3)Mango -1 Pc Rs 60
I have an excel sheet like the following, and would like to go down each row and add 1 to each of the numbers listed under the L3 column. Eventually, I would like to output something like this:
L3s Count Attr Ids
4770 10 [370, 380, ...]
6420 8 [481, 490...]
21253 20 [580....290]
... ... ...
The count is derived by going through all of the rows, and adding 1 to each L3 number whenever it is encountered. Attr IDs are the ids that contributed to the count. Is there any simple way to accomplish this in excel without having to vba/python?
Thanks in advance!
If you have windows Excel O365, you can use the following formulas:
(Note that I made the original data into a Table)
Sorted Unique list of the L3s:
=SORT(UNIQUE(FILTERXML("<t><s>" &SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(TEXTJOIN("</s><s>",TRUE,Table1[L3s])," ",""),",","</s><s>")&"</s></t>","//s")))
Count of the L3s
=COUNT(FILTERXML("<t><s>" &SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(TEXTJOIN("</s><s>",TRUE,Table1[L3s])," ",""),",","</s><s>")&"</s></t>","//s[.=" & F8 &"]"))
Associate Attr IDs
="[" &TEXTJOIN(",",TRUE,FILTER(Table1[attr],ISNUMBER(FIND(","&F8&",",SUBSTITUTE(","&Table1[L3s]& ","," ","")))))&"]"
I tried to use some functions that I found whilst searching to solve my problem, they are slightly modified it to remove duplicate data in a field.

Rather than a count of 4, I would like the count of 2 from column J. The information below are my attempts for 4 different sections on the attached document as I always thought the next one would give me the result that I wanted.
H ====I==========J
P13C Body Exterior 4943
P13C Body Exterior 4943
P13C Body Exterior 5122
P13C Body Exterior 5122
=IFERROR(INDEX($K$7:$K$142,MATCH(0,COUNTIFS($H$7:$H$142,B14,$K$7:$K$142,$E$14),0)),"")
as does this
=IFERROR(INDEX($J$7:$J$142,MATCH(,IF(H$7:H$142="P13C",COUNTIF(I7:I142,$J$7:$J$142)),)),"")
and this
=IFERROR(INDEX($K$7:$K$142,MATCH(0,COUNTIF($H$7:$H$142,$K$7:$K$142),0)),"")
This, gives me a 0
=IF($J$7:$J$142>1,IF($K$7:$K$142="20",SUM(IF(FREQUENCY($H$7:$H$142,$H$7:$H$142)>1,1))))
This gives me a DIV error
=SUMPRODUCT(((H7:H142="P13C")*(I7:I142="Body Exterior"))/(COUNTIFS(J7:J142, J7:J142, H7:H142, "P13C", I7:I142,"Body Exterior")+((H7:H142<>"P13C")+(I7:I142="Body Exterior"))))
There are duplicates in $J$7:$J$142, but I only want the one count.
Sort the column J in smallest to largest order
concatenate all three values by using '&' on next column K ---> H&I&J
then use IF and COUNTIF formula on next column L,
Column L:
=IF(K1=K2,COUNTIF(K1,K1:K142),"")
this a easy method to get count 1 for J column
I have a set of batch numbers in a sheet which are alphanumeric code as follows
sdc234
fgh345
ght587
jki876
The alphabets of the batch number represent a product code. For example
sdc = 20499999
fgh = 45999999
ght = 67999992
jki = 56700000
The above relation is in another sheets.
I want to match product code with batch number directly. How do i lookup a product code based on this partial info ?
You can sort your second table in an alphabetical order and use VLOOKUP with TRUE (approximate match) as your third argument.
Assuming the second table is in column A and B:
D E
sdc234 =VLOOKUP(D1,A:B,2,TRUE)
fgh345 =VLOOKUP(D2,A:B,2,TRUE)
ght587 =VLOOKUP(D3,A:B,2,TRUE)
jki876 =VLOOKUP(D4,A:B,2,TRUE)
The output is as below:
D E
sdc234 20499999
fgh345 45999999
ght587 67999992
jki876 56700000
EDIT:
Assuming your product code is always 3 letters, you can use the LEFT function to get the first 3 letters and then use that as the lookup value. This way you can use the exact match as your third argument:
sdc234 =VLOOKUP(LEFT(D1,3),A:B,2,FALSE)
fgh345 =VLOOKUP(LEFT(D2,3),A:B,2,FALSE)
ght587 =VLOOKUP(LEFT(D3,3),A:B,2,FALSE)
jki876 =VLOOKUP(LEFT(D4,3),A:B,2,FALSE)
Credits to Mladen Savic's comment for making me think of this solution.
This question relates to the Schematiq add-in for Microsoft Excel.
Using =tbl.Lookup(table, columnsToSearch, valuesToFind, resultColumn, [defaultValue]) the values in the valuesToFind column have a consistent 3 characters to the left and then varying characters after (e.g. 908-123456 or 908-321654 - i.e. 908 is always consistent)
How can I tell the function to lookup the value based on the first 3 characters only? The expected answer should be the sum of the results of the above, i.e. 500 + 300 = 800
tbl.Lookup() works by looking for an exact match - this helps ensure it's fast but in this case it means you need an extra step to calculate a column of lookup values, something like this:
A2: =tbl.CalculateColumn(A1, "code", "x => LEFT(x, 3)", "startOfCode")
This will give you a new column that you can use for the columnsToSearch argument, however tbl.Lookup() also looks for just one match - it doesn't know how to combine values together if there is more than one matching row in the table, so I think you also need one more step to group your table by the first 3 chars of the code, like this:
A3: =tbl.Group(A2, "startOfCode", "amount")
Because tbl.Group() adds values together by default, this will give you a table with a row for each distinct value of startOfCode and the subtotal of amount for each of those values. Finally, you can do the lookup exactly as you requested, which for your input table will return 800:
A4: =tbl.Lookup(A3, "startOfCode", "908", "amount")
