I would like an excel formula for the below. For each month (columns) I have a total (all in same row). I want to sum the range of totals and highlight the month in which the cumulative sum of months turns positive. These totals will change based on other variables.
Columns = A1 through L1 (months)
Totals in row B for each month
Assuming your cumulative total will be in row 3, in A3 you would put the formula:
=SUM($A$2:A2)
note the dollar signs in the first part of the range. When you now copy it down the row the second part will change creating a cumulative sum of the total values.
To highlight the first positive value you would select the whole range of cumulative values (say A3:X3) and create New Rule for conditional formatting, select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format", and place the following formula as the condition:
=A3=MIN(IF($A$3:$X$3>0,$A$3:$X$3,""))
Which will highlight the lowest non negative value in your row with the formatting you select. Hope this helps. Regards,

I would like to apply this formula =SUMIFS(K:K;A:A;A3) on a cell on a column only after a change in the date for example:
On this image the 14/12 a sum is calculated 2 times while I would love it if only on sum would calculate for each day. Is this possible maybe add a check weather whats MAX day?
Use =IF(COUNTIF(A$1:A3;A3)-COUNTIF(A:A;A3)=0;SUMIFS(K:K;A:A;A3);"") in the same row # as A3
The 1st countif is a counter from the first row up to the current row meeting the condition.
The 2nd countif is a counter of total occurances of the condition.
If 1st minus 2nd equals 0 it'll show your sumif formula, else it shows blank.
Using only "vlookup" does not work because there are a bunch of malfunctioning minutes & total numbers of it. So as I know I should combine "vlookup" with "sum" or I am wrong? please support me on this query.
You can use Countif() to count with conditions and Sumif() to sum up numbers that fulfill a condition.
In cell K10 (count System No malfunctions)
=Countif(A:A,K9)
... in words: count the rows in column A whose text is equal to that in cell K9.
In K11 you can conditionally sum with this formula:
=Sumif(A:A,K9,C:C)
... in words: for all the rows in column A whose text is equal to that in cell K9, sum the values in column C.
Copy the two formulas from K10 and K11, paste them into K15 and K16 and change the reference from A:A to D:D to look at the code column instead of the system number.
What I'd like is to have a fill down formula that looks to see when the date value changes, and sum all the previous rows for that specific date.
For example, here's a spreadsheet:
In column J, you'll see that those values are the sums of each day. Those sums should only be displayed when the date changes, and the sums will just be the sums of each specific day. I think this has to require an array formula of some kind, but any suggestions? Thanks!
UPDATE
#Scott
I should mention that the dates aren't always the same length, meaning there could have been 2 rows on one date, and 6 on another date. They are sorted, but different number of rows. So it needs to also look backwards to see where the dates change as well...
I've used the formula provided in column K, and then filled it down. The expected answer is in the column just to the right of that.
Moving my comment to an answer because I believe this works, assuming your data is sorted by date, as Scott notes:
=IF(B2<>B3, SUMIF(B:B, B2, I:I), "")
This says if the next date is not equal to the current date, sum all values for that date. Otherwise leave the cell blank.
Edit: just noting for clarity based on the comments, the formula with the given row references assumes the table in question has a 1 row header, and the formula is written in row 2 and filled down. For this question the formula goes in J2 and is filled down. Also note that if you choose to reference a specific cell range instead of entire columns with B:B and I:I, the row references need to be anchored so they don't move when filled down, for example: =IF(B2<>B3, SUMIF(B$1:B$100, B2, I$1:I$100), "")
Update #OP was looking for a forumla based approach.
Well, if the dates are sorted then it can be done with following formula in row 2 beside the Net Units column.
=IF(B2<>B3, SUMIF ($B$2:$I$50, B2, $I$2:$I$50), "")
The row numbers and columns letter should be changed to reflect the data to be selected. Missing the $ (absolute reference) will break the formula.
sumif (range, criteria, sum_range)
// Range is you area from criteria column till the sum_range column, and sum_range is the column that has numerical value to be added.
This kind of problem is best solved by using Pivot Tables. Select your data, make sure each column name/field is unique and then proceed as follows:
Go to Menu > Insert > Pivot Table
Select the cells or worksheet (new worksheet preferred) where you want the Pivot Table to be created.
In the PivotTable builder select, your Date column to Rows
Select the columns that you want to be summed up and drag to the Values Filed
Adjust the Value Filed Settings (in the Values Field list (click the drop down arrow next to each field) to SUM function. [if needed]
Viola! This should produce the desired outcome and should be the preferred method.
I have a work sheet in which there are several cells with a specific entry - let's say "A". These are not all in the same rows/columns. After each cell is a date.
I need to count the number of cells containing "A" which also have a specific date in the cell immediately to its right. I've tried combinations of Countifs and Indirect, with no success. How can I achieve this?
This counts the number of times that there is A in column A and 1 in column B
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$1:$A$5="A")*($B$1:$B$5=1))
This outputs in cell D1
Not too difficult.
I have created a sample sheet with 8 rows and 5 columns of data.
See below, the formula in cell C12 counts the number of occurrences where the a cell with a date of October 31, 2017 is directly to the right of a cell that contains the text A.
If you want more info as to how this works, read on:
When searching for cells that contain A, you don't search in the last column of the data (in this case, column E) because it is impossible for a column to the right to have any date in it. This is why a portion of the formula says A1:D8="A" instead of A1:E8="A". This is the same reasoning why we start searching for a date in column B rather than column A in the formula.
You can achieve this with a helper row. Add additional row on top of your Worksheet. In cell "A1" enter formula below.
=COUNTIFS(A2:A2000,"A",B2:B2000,"YourDate")
Drag this formula to the rightmost of where you have data, then simply sum all values returned by formula.
Is there any way to put the sum of a column values on the top of same column.
For ex: I want to add the values on column A and put the total in the cell A1 and number of rows on column A is dynamic.
In A1 enter:
=SUM(A2:A1048576)
