I have three columns in Excel 2010:
Name
Activity
Person_Days
a pattern looks like this:
John | Activity_A | 2
John | Activity_B | 10
John | Activity_C | 5
Mary | Activity_A | 2
Mary | Activity_D | 12
...
I want to make an extra column that tells me if a person is working 1-30% of the time, 30-60% of the time or 60-100% of the time. Maximum number of person days is 18.
How can I make a formula in Excel which calcultes that?
How about try the SUMIF formula?
=SUMIF(A1:A5, "John", C1:C5)
The above would check cells in A1 to A5 for the value "John" and sum the contents of C1 to C5 where the A column value is "John".
Take that and work out your percentage using your 18 person days. Then just throw in some conditional formatting to show colours for your percentage breaks.
Above would need tweaked to give you exactly what you want but the core idea should work.

I am trying to write a formula in Excel which will count how many times we have sold less than 50 of a particular product. For example, here is a day's sales:
Order | Product | Qty
1 | A | 5
2 | A | 5
3 | A | 5
4 | B | 30
5 | C | 75
I want a formula in a cell which says how many times we have a requirement for less than 50 of a certain product. So in the example above, there is a total of 15 As, 30 Bs and 75 Cs, so 2 of those are less than 50.
I think it will need to be an array function of COUNTIF and SUM, but can't figure it out.
You could use this formula:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(IF(ROW($B$2:$B$10)=MATCH($B$2:$B$10,$B$1:$B$10,0),SUMIF($B$2:$B$10,$B$2:$B$10,$C$2:$C$10),"")<50))
Note: It's an array formula and must be entered through Ctrl+Shift+Enter
Product order placement can be randomized and does not have to be in order.
Another way
=SUMPRODUCT((SUMIF(B2:B10,B2:B10,C2:C10)<50)/COUNTIF(B2:B10,B2:B10))
Maybe something like that will help:
=SUMPRODUCT(--IF($B$2:$B$11<>$B$1:$B$10,SUMIF($B$2:$B$11,$B$2:$B$11,$C$2:$C$11)<50,0))
Note that this is an array formula so needs to be entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter. Data needs to be sorted by Product (i.e. product A cannot appear in random rows, like row 2, 20 and 100; it needs to be grouped together).
Result:
Using Excel 2011 for mac, I have three columns: ID, Start date, end date and time to completion. (Date format: dd/mm/yyyy)
ID | Start | End | Time
1 | 01/01/2016 | 05/01/2016 | 4
2 | 04/01/2016 | 08/01/2016 | 4
3 | 01/02/2016 | 14/02/2016 | 13
4 | 02/02/2016 | 20/02/2016 | 18
5 | 01/03/2016 | 05/03/2016 | 4
6 | 06/03/2016 | 08/03/2016 | 2
7 | 12/03/2016 | 15/03/2016 | 3
Column D is basically the difference between column C and column B.
Now I have the total average, which is easy to calculate but I'd also like to have the averages for the different months.
And this is where my knowledge falls apart. I've tried several things but I can't seem to figure out how to calculate an average using only the cells in a column that match a certain value in another column. I could sort the tickets by date and do it manually by doing the average for only a certain range but as this list constantly changes this is definitely not a nice option.
Check out the AVERAGEIF function
AVERAGEIF(selection_range, criteria, averaging_range)
It uses the values in the selection_range to filter which values in the averaging_range will be averaged.
In your case you could say AVERAGEIF(B1:B8, "01/01/2016", D1:D8)
There are multiple ways. I would personally use an array formula, but that may be a bit advanced and overly complicated.
I suggest adding a column E "Month" - into E2 add:
=MONTH(B2)
Then copy cell E2 to E3:E8.
Now you can easily get a monthly average by applying the AVERAGEIF command:
=AVERAGEIF(E2:E8,2,D2:D8)
The second argument, 2, indicates February, but may be exchanged with any number from 1-12.
I have two spreadsheets built. I want to be able to put what step a teacher is in which looks like this; BS, 1 or BS, 2 etc. (My second worksheet has each step and salary on it) I then would like the cell directly next to it to pull the correct salary amount from my other Worksheet.
I would add a picture, however it won't let me. Thank you for any help you can offer me.
Assuming the name of the teacher and category of the teacher is in Sheet1 columns A and B
(A) | (B)
|
Max | 1
Tammy | 4
Alex | 2
and on Sheet 2 you have category and salary
(A) | (B)
|
1 | 30000
2 | 45000
3 | 75000
4 | 120000
Then in cell C1 on sheet 1 you would use the formula:
=VLOOKUP($B1,'Sheet2!$A$1:$B$4,2,0)
You would then copy this formula down as required.
Alternatively you could achieve the same results with an INDEX/MATCH combination
=INDEX('Sheet2'!$B$1:$B$4,MATCH(B1,'Sheet2'!$A1:$A$2),0)
I have a worksheet with columns similar to the below
name | id | contact | category | week 1 | week 2 | week 3 | ... |week 52
What I need to do is transpose the 'week' columns into rows, so I end up with:
name | id | contact | category | week
With an entry for each week as a row in the s/sheet - thus making a long list on rows with the column data for each week.
example current format:
jones | 12345 | simon | electronics | 100 | 120| 130| 110 | ..........150
Required format
jones | 12345 | simon | electronics | 100
jones | 12345 | simon | electronics | 120
jones | 12345 | simon | electronics | 130
jones | 12345 | simon | electronics | 110
...
jones | 12345 | simon | electronics | 150
I have tried the usual excel transpose (via paste) but cannot get the first few columns to stay static, whilst transposing the week columns
Ideally I would like to achieve this within excel, but I can import the data into a mysql database and use that if the solution would be easier that way
Hope this makes sense
[added examples]
I would do the work on a second sheet, which uses the INDIRECT function to do the lookups for you:
http://www.excelfunctions.net/Excel-Indirect-Function.html
Start by setting up some indexes on the new sheet - we will use these to indirectly look up into the original sheet and pull the data across.
I would count up to 52 again and again in column A, starting with a 1 in A2, and using this formula below:
=if(A2=52,1,A2+1)
This would be my count of the weeks per person.
In column B, I would count my people, starting with a 1 in B2, and using this formula:
=if(A3=1,B2+1,B2)
This gives me the row and column offsets to use in the INDIRECT function to fetch the data from your original sheet.
Now the fun part - matching these row and column offsets to your actual data.
Lets assume your original data is in a sheet called "original". This is where we need to look up the data.
We will map the original column A into the new sheet's column C. So C2 can hold this formula:
=indirect("original!R"&($B2+1)&"C1",false)
What you are doing there is looking in the row that you calculated in the B column (formula above), and looking in the first column of that row (i.e. column A) - this is where the Name is stored.
Similarly, the "id", "contact" and "category" columns get mapped to new sheet columns D, E, F, using modifications of that formula:
=indirect("original!R"&($B2+1)&"C2",false)
=indirect("original!R"&($B2+1)&"C3",false)
=indirect("original!R"&($B2+1)&"C4",false)
Only the column offset gets changed in these updates.
To pull the weekly data across, we use a similar formula; the difference is that now we get to use the newly calculated column A, where we counted up from 1 to 52 over and over.
So G2 becomes:
=indirect("original!R"&($B2+1)&"C"&(4+$A2),false)
Copy this all down as far as you need, and hide columns A and B.
I have a longitudinal spreadsheet of adolescent growth.
ID | CollectionDate | DOB | MOTHER ID | Sex
1 | 1Aug03 | 3Apr90 | 12 | 1
1 | 4Sept04 | 3Apr90 | 12 | 1
1 | 1Sept05 | 3Apr90 | 12 | 1
2 | 1Aug03 | 21Dec91 | 12 | 0
2 | 4Sept04 | 21Dec91 | 12 | 0
2 | 1Sept05 | 21Dec91 | 12 | 0
3 | 1Aug03 | 30Jan89 | 23 | 0
3 | 4Sept04 | 30Jan89 | 23 | 0
This is a sample of how my data is formatted and some of the variables that I have. As you can see, since it is longitudinal, each individual has multiple measurements. In the actual database there are over 10 measurements per individual and over 250 individuals.
What I am wanting to do is input a value signifying the number of older brothers and older sisters each individual has. That is why I have included the Mother ID (because it represents genetic relatedness) and sex. These new variable columns would just say how many older siblings of each sex each individual has. Is there a formula that I could use to do this quickly?
=COUNTIFS($B:$B,"<>"&$B2,$H:$H,$H2,$AI:$AI,$AI2,$J:$J,"<"&$J2)
Create a column named Distinct with this formula
=1/COUNTIF([ID],[#ID])
Then you can find all the older 0-sexed siblings like this
=SUMPRODUCT(([DOB]>[#DOB])*([MOTHERID]=[#MOTHERID])*([Sex]=0)*([Distinct]))
Note that I made the data a Table and used table notation. If you're not familiar [COLUMNNAME] refers to the whole column and [#COLUMNNAME] refers to the value in that column on the current row. It's similar to saying $A:$A and A2 if you're dealing with column A.
The first formula gives you a value to count that will always result in 1 for a particular ID. So ID=1 has three lines and Distinct will result in .33333 for each line. When you add up the three lines you get 1. This is similar to a SELECT DISTINCT in Sql parlance.
The SUMPRODUCT formula sums [Distinct] for every row where the DOB is greater than the current DOB, the Mother is the same as the current Mother, and the Sex is zero.
I have a possible solution. It involves adding two columns -- One for "# older siblings" and one for "unique?". So here are all the headings I have currently:
A -- ID
B -- CollectionDate
C -- DOB
D -- MOTHER ID
E -- Sex
F -- # older siblings
G -- unique?
In G2, I added the following formula:
=IF(A2=A1,0,1)
And dragged down. As long as the data is sorted by ID, this will only display "1" once for each unique person.
In F2, I added the following formula:
=COUNTIFS(G:G,"=1",D:D,"="&D2,C:C,"<"&C2)
And dragged down. It seemed to work correctly for the sample data you provided.
The stipulations are:
You would need the two columns.
The data would need to be sorted by ID
I hope this helps.
You need a formula like this (for example, for row 2):
=COUNTIFS($A:$A,"<>"&$A2,$E:$E,$E2,$D:$D,$D2,$C:$C,"<"&$C2)
Assuming E:E is column for sex, D:D is column for mother ID and C:C is column for DOB.
Write this formula in H2 cell for example and drag it down.
