EXCEL How do I summarize a list? - excel-formula

I am going to do my best to explain what I have and what I need.
I have a list of wood pieces (length x width) that I want to summaries in order to have the pieces quantity of every type of piece.
For example
This list has 3 columns (Colum A Colum B and Colum C)
Colum A shows the length
Colum B shows the width
Colum C shows the quantity
And in the list, the same type of piece can be shown few times and whit different quantities.
Looks like this
10x10 1
10x10 4
20x40 6
30x40 1
30x40 5
20x40 3
I’m looking for a solution that can help me to:
SUM the quantity shown in Colum C for the same type of wood piece.
The solution for this example is next.
10x10 5
20x40 9
30x40 6
clik for the example image EXAMPLE

Try the SUMIFS formula (see image). First you'll need to manually enter all different combinations of length and width (see columns E and F).

Sum values using lookup table, where lookup values are a list of values with comma delimiter

I am trying to sum values based that equal a lookup value. However, that value is actually a list of values delimited by a comma. Below is an example of what I mean.
Suppose I have raw data in the form of sheet1 below:
Sheet1:
A
B
1
ID
VALUE
2
A
30
3
A
50
4
A
20
5
B
10
6
B
20
7
C
70
8
C
40
9
D
30
10
E
50
11
F
20
12
F
30
13
G
10
And I have a look table that groups all IDs by their respective teams, as per sheet2 below.
Sheet2:
A
B
1
TEAM
IDS
2
Red
A, B
3
Blue
C, D
4
Green
E, F, G
And I want to create a report where the user can select the team name, and the sum of the values in sheet1 will aggregate based on the selection, as per the following example. So the user would select "Green" in cell B1 and it would return the sum of values that correspond to E, F, and G in sheet1.
Report:
A
B
1
Select Team:
Green
2
Sum:
110
I have searched all over for a solution to this and was able to find something similar. I tried to repurpose the formula for my data but couldn't get it to work because I think that solution dealt with numbers rather than text.
Excel: Perform a SUMIF where the criteria is a comma-delimited list
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Edit: Just want to add that I realize I could first parse out the IDs in sheet2, however I'm looking for a formula that can bypass that as my real dataset is quite large and parsing out the IDs under each team would explode the number of rows.
A variation of #JvdV solution on the linked question:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIFS(Sheet1!B:B,Sheet1!A:A,FILTERXML("<t><s>"&SUBSTITUTE(VLOOKUP(Sheet2!F1,Sheet2!A:B,2,FALSE),",","</s><s>")&"</s></t>","//s")))
Note, this only works with Excel 2013 or later and only on PC. FILTERXML is not available on Mac or prior to 2013.
If Mac or prior to 2013:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIFS(Sheet1!B:B,Sheet1!A:A,TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(VLOOKUP(F1,Sheet2!A:B,2,FALSE),",",REPT(" ",999)),(ROW($ZY1:INDEX($ZY:$ZY,LEN(VLOOKUP(F1,Sheet2!A:B,2,FALSE))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(VLOOKUP(F1,Sheet2!A:B,2,FALSE),",",""))+1))-1)*999+1,999))))

Sumproduct - counting equal pairs of numbers (and filtering them)

In columns D&E I have a list of scores for a game, where D is points for and E is points against, like so
D E
1 3
4 2
3 3
3 1
I'm trying to create a formula that displays a win / draw / loss record based on whether column D is larger, equal to or smaller than column E. In this example it would display 2 / 1 / 1.
So far I have this
=(SUMPRODUCT(--(D12:D200>E12:E200)))&" / "&SUMPRODUCT(--(D12:D200=E12:E200))&" / "&(SUMPRODUCT(--(D12:D200<E12:E200)))
But there are two issues. One is that all the blank rows are being counted as equals, so the result is coming out as 2 / 186 / 1.
The second is that in another column I have a list of days of the week, and I would like to be able to filter out rows by day and have the results reflect this. I have different formulas using SUBTOTAL instead of SUM to count overall number of points, which works fine. But I don't know what the equivalent change I need to make would be for my formula. Any help would be appreciated.
As for your first issue, your formula indeed takes blanks into account and treats them as equals. You can adjust your middle SUMPRODUCT formula to omit the blanks, just like that:
=SUMPRODUCT(ISNUMBER(D12:D200)*(--(D12:D200=E12:E200)))
The second question is regarding filtering out rows by the day of the week. Here's the view before "Day" filter is applied - as you can see we have 5 wins (blue), 4 draws (orange) and 3 losses (green).
You need to use the following formula to make SUMPRODUCT dynamic (i.e. it will react to filtering out rows):
=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(F12:F200,ROW(F12:F200)-ROW(F12),,1)),--(D12:D200>E12:E200))&" / "&SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(F12:F200,ROW(F12:F200)-ROW(F12),,1)),ISNUMBER(D12:D200)*(--(D12:D200=E12:E200)))&" / "&SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(F12:F200,ROW(F12:F200)-ROW(F12),,1)),--(D12:D200<E12:E200))

Assign one value at the time from a column i Excel if the value is the same

I got some help with a problem finding column values in Excel: Find column value Excel
The table looks like this:
A 17 8,5 5,666666667 4,25 3,4 2,833333333 2,428571429
B 5 2,5 1,666666667 1,25 1 0,833333333 0,714285714
C 5 2,5 1,666666667 1,25 1 0,833333333 0,714285714
G 4 2 1,333333333 1 0,8 0,666666667 0,571428571
The code that I got help with basically selects A, B, C and G based of the order of the largest numeric value. The largest value is 17, that is one point for A, then comes 8,5 which gives another point for A. That works fine.
However, then comes 5. I now get B two times instead of first B and the C (the order does not matter, but I do not want to get two points for B when B and C have the same value). How can this be fixed?
(The real problem that this example illustrates is the number of seats on local boards in Swedish multiplicitets, where the number of seats for the different parties is based on the number of seats in the city council.)
Edit: Formula: =INDEX($J$16:$J$25,AGGREGATE(14,6,ROW($K$16:$W$25)/(K28=$K$16:$W$25),1)-ROW($J$16)+1)
Edit2: Wanted result:
Mandate Party
1 A
2 A
3 A
4 B
5 C
To do this by formulas, I think a simple way is to
unpivot the original data using formulas
Apply a unique rank formula to that data
Then use VLOOKUP to return ranks 1-n
The following formulas and defined names will be useful
origTbl =Sheet2!$A$1:$H$4
unpivotTbl =Sheet2!$A$8:$C$35
A8 =RANK(C8,$C$8:$C$35,0)+COUNTIF($C$8:C8,C8)-1
B8 =INDEX(origTbl,INT((ROWS($1:1)-1)/7)+1,1)
C8 =INDEX(origTbl,INT((ROWS($1:1)-1)/7)+1,MOD(7+ROWS($1:1)-1,7)+2)
Fill down A8:C8 to row 35
In the formulas in B8 and C8, the 7 is the number of columns in origTbl minus 1 (eg: COLUMNS(origTbl)-1)
Any changes you make in origTbl will be reflected in the final table
For appearances, you can certainly hide the UnPivot table someplace.
Note: in my locale, decimal separator is the dot

Excel - Formula or Macro to fill a cell based on another cell that links to yet another cell

In Excel, I am trying to make a cell based of the values contained in two other cells.
I need Cells X and Y to have data based on Cells L and #, like so....
X Y L 1 2 3 4 5 6
A 6 1 1 6;1 6;1 7;1 7;2 7;2 8;1
B 7 2 4 6;1 6;1 7;1 7;2 7;2 8;1
So row A, has columns X and Y filled based of the values in the number columns. The specific number needed is what is filled in in column L.
I am not sure the best way to phrase this question. If my example doesn't make sense, I can try to clarify or provide more examples.
I have no idea if this can be done with fancy formulas or with a VBA macro or two. I am an excel noob.
If I've understood your question correctly you can do this with a combination of Left/Right, Index and search.
In my example images, the user inputs their value in column D, and then columns B and C use the formulea
=LEFT(INDEX($F2:$K2,1,$D2),(SEARCH(";",INDEX($F2:$K2,1,$D2))-1))
=RIGHT(INDEX($F2:$K2,1,$D2),(SEARCH(";",INDEX($F2:$K2,1,$D2))-1))
respectively
Here, the Index function returns the correct column to look at (i.e. the value chosen by the user, the Search function finds the position of the semi-colon, and the left/right functions return the values either side of the semi-colon.

Excel line up data

I'm a total Excel nub and can't find the answer I'm looking for. Must be easy peasy, but since I'm not into Excel I also don't know what to look for. Sorry if I'm having my question wrong.
I have output in Excel like this:
A 1
A 2
A 3
A 4
B 1
B 2
B 3
B 4
B 5
B 6
and I want it like this:
A 1 2 3 4
B 1 2 3 4 5 6
this question is quite complex in a way.
let me explain it more in detail:
as you see above, we have two columns A and B, you have text strings in column A , these text strings could be repeated. As you see in the example, there are 4 As, 5 Bs, 3 Cs 1 D and 3 Es. In column B each one of these strings have different corresponding values. For example, text strings B in column A has five corresponding values in column B, namely 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16.
Now we want a list of UNIQUE values from column A, and lets say, we put this list in column C and then for each of these unique values in column C we want to list their corresponding cells in column B and put them HORIZONTALLY in front of each of these unique text strings in column C.
For this you need two kinds of formulas:
Formula 1 to calculate the list of the unique values in column A :
this goes in C2:(leave C1 empty)
=IFERROR(INDEX($A$1:$A$999;MATCH(0;FREQUENCY(IF(EXACT($A$1:$A$999;TRANSPOSE($C$1:C1));MATCH(ROW($A$1:$A$999);ROW($A$1:$A$999)); ""); MATCH(ROW($A$1:$A$999);ROW($A$1:$A$999))); 0)); "")
this is an array formula, so press ctrl+shift+enter to calculate the formula, and drag and fill down as many as you want in column C.
*Formula 2 to find and list horizontally the values from column B *
=IFERROR(INDEX($B$1:$B$999;SMALL(IF($C2=$A$1:$A$999;ROW($A$1:$A$999)-ROW($A$1)+1);COLUMN(A$1)));"")
this is an array formula, so press ctrl+shift+enter to calculate the formula, put this in D2 and drag and fill down until the last cell of column C. then select D2 to D6 and drag and fill horizontally. You should get all of the corresponding cells in front of each unique item.
P.S. adjust the formulas to meet your regional settings by replacing ; with , I suppose.
Finally here is the link to an example sheet downloadable from here .
This is very generic but hopefully will help.
Highlight the cells that you want to transpose to.
Type the equation..."=TRANSPOSE(B1:B4)" (edit as necessary).
While the cells are still highlighted, press "ctrl+shift+enter". (brackets should appear around the equation)
Finish editing the cells.
