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 sheet where I am recording what I eat:
Another where I keep an index of values to lookup
I tried
=SUM(VLOOKUP('Sheet1'!A2:A11,'Sheet2'!A2:E11,2,FALSE))
but that only returned the first match, so then I tried
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF('Sheet1'!A2:A11,'Sheet2'!A2:A11,'Sheet2'!B2:B11))
but that isn't working either.
does anyone have a solution, where I can also multiply the value of the return match by the # of servings in the first sheet?
Thanks!
If you want a single output of calories through SUMPRODUCT then you can use
=SUMPRODUCT(B2:B11*IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2:A11,Sheet2!A2:B11,2,0),0))
If you are sure that all entries on Sheet 1 can be located on Sheet 2 then you can drop IFERROR portion like
=SUMPRODUCT(B2:B11*VLOOKUP(A2:A11,Sheet2!A2:B11,2,0)).
Beware that if a value is not found in Sheet 2 then formula will produce wrong result as IFERROR will multiply the serving quantity with 0.
I combine 2 tables into one sheet, Table 1 housed in Column A & B and Table 2 housed in Column D & E
In G2, "Total Serving Colories" enter formula :
=SUMPRODUCT(VLOOKUP(T(IF({1},A2:A12)),D2:E12,2,FALSE)*B2:B12)
It's not super-clear what you're trying to get at. But defining the "Calories Per Serving" in a range called "cals",
+---+---------+-----+--------------------------------+
| | A | B | C |
+---+---------+-----+--------------------------------+
| 1 | egg | 3 | =(VLOOKUP(A2,cals,2,FALSE))*B2 |
| 2 | oatmeal | 1.5 | =(VLOOKUP(A3,cals,2,FALSE))*B3 |
| 3 | shrimp | 2 | =(VLOOKUP(A4,cals,2,FALSE))*B4 |

Say I have a product category lookup like so:
Sheet 1
Product Name | Product Category
--------------------------------------
product 1 | A
product 2 | A
product 3 | B
product 4 | A
product 5 | B
product 6 | C
and I also have a list of purchases which only use Product Name like this:
Sheet 2
Product Name | Purchase Quantity
---------------------------------------
product 1 | 35
product 4 | 10
product 5 | 5
I would like to produce a rollup like this:
Product Category | Purchase Quantity
------------------------------------------
A | 45
B | 5
C | 0
I've tried a variety of ways to solve this like:
SUMIF(LOOKUP('Sheet 2'!A2:A6,'Sheet 1'!A:A,'Sheet 2'!B:B), "=A", 'Sheet 2'!B2:B6)
SUMPRODUCT(LOOKUP('Sheet 2'!A2:A6, 'Sheet 1'!A:A, 'Sheet 2'!B:B)="A"*'Sheet 2'!B2:B6)
Excel doesn't like the first one. It says the formula is incorrect, but I'm not seeing why. The second one yields #VALUE. Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
With A in D2, use this as an array formula.
=SUM(SUMIFS(Sheet2!B$2:B$4, Sheet2!A$2:A$4, IF(Sheet1!B$2:B$7=D2, Sheet1!A$2:A$7)))
Array formulas need to be finished with Ctrl+Shift+Enter, not just Enter.
In my opinion there is no need to use complex formulas for such an easy question. Just add another column next to Purchase Quantity sheet 2 to get the Product Category and simply use =SUMIF. I have prepare a solution to illustrate my thoughts:
Formula for VLOOKUP:
=VLOOKUP(D2,$A$2:$B$7,2,FALSE)
Formula for SUMIF:
=SUMIF($F$2:$F$4,"=" & A10,$E$2:$E$4)

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

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'm trying to work out a small problem with my excel Pivot table. I have data from a Excel Sheet which i have made a Pivot table of. The data is structured as below
Name | Count Cell1 | Sum of Cell 2 |
Eric | 25 | 5 |
Sam | 5 | 1 |
Joe | 10 | 5 |
What i want to have is a formula that takes the Count of Cell 1 and divide it by Sum of Cell 2 and display it in % like the example below.
Name | Count Cell1 | Sum of Cell 2 | Difference|
------------------------------------------------
Eric | 25 | 5 | 20% |
Sam | 5 | 1 | 20% |
Joe | 10 | 5 | 50% |
All formulas i have tried only uses the original Table cells and not the sums of them.
So is there a smart way to have a formula lookup inside of a pivot table and display it in %?
In your Pivot Table, you can enter a calculated field to do what you want.
Select somewhere in your pivot table (e.g. one of the Sum of Cell2 fields)
In the PivotTable Tools > Options ribbon, in the Calculations section, click Fields, Items & Sets and from there pick Calculated Field
Change the name to Difference and the Formula =Cell2/Cell1
In the Field Settings for that field, change the Custom Name to Difference and Number Format to Percentage
EDIT - question updated for Count & Sum
So, as far as I can see, trying to do the combination of Sum/Count really upsets it... the only workaround I could find was adding a helper column in the data source with just the number 1... in that way, the sum of that gives you the count, and so the Calculated Field can be Cell2/HelperColumn -horrible!
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.
