I have a pivot table with a lot of items currently grouped by date into quartiles and then months under that. My question is this, Our Financial year is not Jan to Jan so can I set up quartiles to reflect this? also our financial periods are not simply set months, they follow the months but are always full weeks around that. for example, P1 this year is 04/07/2015 - 07/08/2015. and Q1 would be 04/07/2015 - 02/09/2015.
Aside from manually grouping is there a way to set this up to happen automatically within Excel?
As stated by pnuts in the question's comments:
The most practical way may be to define the quarters (?) in your source data.
If you are at least using a Gregorian calendar, you may want to subtract an offset from your dates (i.e. # of days between 01-Jan-YYYY and DD-MMM-YYYY ... whereby the offset YYYY doesn't need to be the same as your date's YYYY). By this subtraction you get an "ordinal number" of the date within your business year.
[offset] =[FOY]-DATE(YEAR([FOY]),1,1)
So with your year starting on [FOY]=04-Jul-2015, you have an offset of of 184 days and a normalized date of
[date_normalized] = [current_date]-[offset]
So 04-Jul-2015 will be shrunk to 01-Jan-2015. Now the quarter easily calculates to
=CEILING(MONTH([date_normalized])/3,1)
... or =VALUE(MID("111222333444",MONTH([date_normalized]),1)) ... if you prefer
For your not-quite-months always being full weeks, I suggest to calculate a week number by
=MOD(CEILING(([date_normalized]+1)/7,1)-1,52)+1
to create a weekly reporting period 1 .. 52. With a further =CEILING(.../4,1) this can be converted to quasi-months having 4 weeks each.

TLDR: I need a way to track date values in a dynamic calendar and count the days I've worked on on a monthly base.
So I've made a dynamic calendar (in the 1904 Date system to enable negative time handling) to help me track days and hours worked in Excel that has some automatic features. I would now like to add a calculator to calculate the accumulation of vacation days based on the following conditions:
Days worked per month >= 14
OR
The total hours worked per month >= 35
If one or both of these conditions are met I will receive 2 vacation days (2.5 after the 1st year of employment) and the accumulated vacation days should be shown in a single cell C7 (see picture for reference).
I know that I need to calculate the days that I've worked on on a monthly base and compare the result to the 1st condition (and the same for the worked hours and compare the result to the 2nd condition, but the solution for that is much the same as for the 1st condition). I've made my calendar in a way that I can't use fixed cells to do the calculation, as the length of the calendar is fixed to 53 full weeks and the dates change to accommodate the length according to the year in cell C2 i.e. January 1st will not always be in cell D17. Here are the first 10 rows of my dynamic calendar in Table Markdown format with the formulas as asked.

A snippet of the dynamic calendar
I've tried combining the DATE and SUM functions with other functions like COUNTA, and COUNTIF. I've also tried using different LOOKUP functions but to no avail.
The new dataset filtered by Year
And filtered again by Month
Microsoft money used to be a brilliant programme for keeping track of a pension portfolio in that it showed value change weekly, monthly, 3 monthly and year to date, now it is no longer supported I have been trying to find an alternative. I now have an I Mac with MS excel on but am trying to do a sort and display on the following and try keep track as per MS Money did.
[Sample][1]
This data is updated weekly and would like to know if it is possible to replicate MS Money.

ok so lets try the things you said about and see if we can get you close:
name the ranges (link) dates and values
weekly movement (current value / value 1 week ago):
=SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates),values)/SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates)-7,values)
1 month movement:
=SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates),values)/SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates)-ROUND((MAX(dates)-EDATE(MAX(dates),-1))/7,0)*7,values)
3 month movement:
=SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates),values)/SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates)-ROUND((MAX(dates)-EDATE(MAX(dates),-3))/7,0)*7,values)
ytd:
=SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates),values)/SUMIF(dates,MAX(dates)-ROUND((MAX(dates)-DATE(YEAR(MAX(dates)),1,1))/7,0)*7,values)
this assumes those named ranges and that the date is exactly every 7 days apart. if also looks for the closest date to 1 month ago, 3 months ago and start of year.
also it does a current value as percentage of the start value for the period
Need to find out the difference between two quarter periods.
Data as shown below:
Any plan sold year on same quarter (Let's say Oct, Nov or Dec) and the Check Month quarter ( Let's say May, June, July) would have the same difference in the quarter periods.
Need the formula to catch the difference between two quarter periods.
Eg:
Plan Sold Year: 2013 Dec
Check Year: 2018 Feb
Difference in periods: 18 periods (including 2013 quarter period as well)
One way of tackling your question is to work out the Plan Sale Quarter Start Date and Check Quarter End Date, then do a calculation between the two dates to work out the periods (full quarters) in between.
In my solution I used two helper columns being PSQStart and CQEnd that represent the two critical dates mentioned above.
Formulas are:
PSQStart =DATE($A2,FLOOR(MONTH(DATEVALUE("1/"&$B2&"/"&$A2))-1,3)+1,1)
CQEnd =DATE(D2,FLOOR(MONTH(DATEVALUE("1/"&$E2&"/"&$D2))+2,3),30)
Periods =ROUNDDOWN((H2-G2)/90,0)
Drag all three formulas down to apply to all rows.
You can choose to combine the first two formulas into the third one but it will make the formula too long to be easily interpreted and/or edited for future needs.
Here are the main functions used in my solution:
DATE() convert yyyy,mm,dd into a valid date/numerical value for calculations;
DATEVALUE() convert text date dd/mmm/yyyy into a valid date/numerical value for calculations;
FLOOR() work out the start/end month for a given month;
ROUNDDOWN() calculate the number of periods.

This task seems easy enough yet I just can't figure a way of doing this without resorting to vba.
All I need is to know the number of hours an employee has used up on annual leave, based on a start and end date, and their hours of work.
To be more clear, this example shows one employees contracted hours from Monday to Sunday i.e. they work only Weds, Thurs, and Friday, for 7.5 hours each day.
Below shows the start and end date that the employee has chosen to take for annual leave. I need to calculate, based on their contracted hours, how much annual leave is used between the two dates. The answer would be 45 hours in this case.
Here's another approach - I've expanded the days between the start and end dates into an array then used the resulting day numbers to offset into the days of work range
=SUMPRODUCT(N(OFFSET(A3,0,WEEKDAY(ROW(INDIRECT(A6&":"&B6)),2)-1)))
If you had a list of holiday dates somewhere (say in I3:N3) you could exclude them as follows
=SUMPRODUCT(N(OFFSET(A3,0,WEEKDAY(ROW(INDIRECT(A6&":"&B6)),2)-1))*ISNA(MATCH(ROW(INDIRECT(A6&":"&B6)),I3:N3,0)))
- it is a bit long-winded but the only way I can think of at the moment.
I'm trying to find a trend projection that compares between same week of 2 consecutive years and also from previous weeks of a particular year. What is the excel formula that helps me to do this?
I need to find the projected values for week 15 all the way to week 53 for This year, based on
The previous weeks of This year (Week 1- Week 14) as well as
The same week Last year (Week 15)
You could use the Trend function, setting Known X's to Last Year weeks 1 to 14 and Known Y's to This Year weeks 1 to 14.
Then set the New X's to the same week for last year and the function will use the Least Squares method to extrapolate for this year.
If you use absolute references (e.g. $A$1:$A$10) for the Known X's and Y's, and a relative reference for the New X's, then you can just copy/paste the formula from This Year week 15 down.
Keep in mind though that the further you get from the Known values, the less accurate the forecast becomes...
