My worksheets:
ELKK BSN Voornaam Achternaam DOB Basisschool Advies Voorrangschool Voorkeur
1 1 John Smit 1 Test VWO Test Test
2 2 Chris Kong 2 Test 2 HAVO Test Test
This worksheet is called Leerlingen
The second one:
School Advies Klasnaam Regulier
Test VWO VWO 1
Test 2 HAVO HAVO 1
Test 3 VWO SPORT 0
This worksheet is called VO-scholen
What I want to happen is, when I change the value "Advies" in the Leerlingen worksheet. I want to get all the schools from the VO-scholen Worksheet who also have that "Advies" and return them in the Leerlingen worksheet into a list under the column "Voorrangschool".
This means that with "John Smit" I can select the schools Test and Test 3, and with "Chris Kong" I can select the school Test 2.
Here is what I already tried:
=INDEX('VO-scholen'!A2:G4;MATCH(G2; 'VO-scholen'!$C$2:$C$4; 0);2 )
But it won't return multiple values, only the first value it can find.
my answer requires MOREFUNC addon*
Here I assume data in purchase "table" is in A9:C11. Adjust accordingly.
formula for Leerlingen!H2:
=MCONCAT(IF('VO-scholen'!$C$2:$C$4=G2,'VO-scholen'!$B$2:$B$4,""),",")
notice the curly braces. This is an array formula you have to confirm using Ctrl+Shift+Enter, not just Enter (so that curly braces appear)
then copy the formula down

HERE is some information (by original author)
here is the last working download link I found
here is a good installation walk-through video
You'll want to modify this a little, but try:
=INDEX('VO-scholen'!$A$1:$G$4,MATCH($G2, 'VO-scholen'!$B$1:$B$4, 0),1 ) & IF(COUNTIF('VO-scholen'!$B:$B,Leerlingen!$G2)>1, ", " & INDEX(OFFSET('VO-scholen'!$A$1:$D$4,MATCH($G2,'VO-scholen'!$B$1:$B$4),0),MATCH($G2,'VO-scholen'!$B$1:$B$4),1),"")
The first index match grabs the first value in the table. The second index match grabs the first value in an offset from the first table. The offset starts the second lookup table down the number of rows from the first lookup value. In other words if you were searching in B1:B100 and the value was found in row 3, the second lookup will be in B4:B104.

I would like to count the number of ''mail opens'' by unique people per day.
I have included a small example below.
So in this case, because Harry opened the mail twice on day one, I only want to count him once.
I do want his ''mail open'' on day 2 to count towards the total numbers of mails opened on day two, though.
The result I should be getting from this is:
Day 1: 2
Day 2: 2
I have tried Countifs, unique combined with filter, etc. but have not yet been succesfull. I feel like they should be combined somehow, but keep struggelnig to get to the correct answer. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Per your request:
I would like to count the number of ''mail opens'' by unique people
per day.
If the input data is in the following range C2:E8 you can use the following formula:
=LET(days, E2:E8,
BYROW(UNIQUE(days),
LAMBDA(day, COUNTA(UNIQUE(FILTER(C2:C8,
(D2:D8="mail open") * (days=day))))))
)
Here is the corresponding screenshot:
If you want the result including the day number, you can concatenate the result via HSTACK function as follow in I2 cell:
=LET(days, E2:E8, HSTACK(UNIQUE(days),
BYROW(UNIQUE(days), LAMBDA(day,
COUNTA(UNIQUE(FILTER(C2:C8, (D2:D8="mail open") * (days=day))))))))
If you prefer expanding down the formula instead, just populate separately the unique days in I2-I3 cells and on cell J2 put the following formula and expand it:
=IF(I2="","", COUNTA(UNIQUE(FILTER($C$2:$C$8,
($D$2:$D$8="mail open") * ($E$2:$E$8=I2)))))
Explanation
We use LET function to shorten the formula avoiding repetition the same range. In our case E2:E8 named as days.
Now for each unique days (UNIQUE(days) by row) via BYROW function we count the number of unique person, based on filter conditions mail open and for a given day. The and condition is stablished in the FILTER function by multiplying each condition:
FILTER(C2:C8, (D2:D8="mail open") * (days=day))
Now we just need to count the unique elements (via COUNTA and UNIQUE) of the FILTER result (the elements of C2:C8 that matches the conditions).
I am trying to extract some data out of a large table of data in Excel. The table consists of the month, the agent's name, and either a 1 if they made a sale or a 0 if they did not.
What I would like to do is plug in a Month value into one cell, then have it spit out a count of how many agents made their first sale that month.
Sample Data and Input Output area
I found success by creating a secondary table for processing a minif and matching to agent name, then countif in that table's data how many sales months matched the input month. However I would like to not have a secondary table and do this all in one go.
=IF(MINIFS(E2ERawData[Date Group],E2ERawData[Agent],'Processed Data'!B4,E2ERawData[E2E Participation],1)=0,"No Sales",MINIFS(E2ERawData[Date Group],E2ERawData[Agent],'Processed Data'!B4,E2ERawData[E2E Participation],1))
=COUNTIFS(ProcessedData[Month of First E2E Sale],H4)
Formula in column F is:
=MAX(0;COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$8;E3;$C$2:$C$8;1)-SUM(COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$8;"<"&E3;$C$2:$C$8;1;$B$2:$B$8;IF($A$2:$A$8=E3;$B$2:$B$8))))
This is how it works (we'll use 01/03/2022 as example)
COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$8;E3;$C$2:$C$8;1) This counts how many 1 there are for the proper month (in our example this part will return 2)
COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$8;"<"&E3;$C$2:$C$8;1;$B$2:$B$8;SI($A$2:$A$8=E3;$B$2:$B$8)) will count how many 1 you got in previous months of the same agents (in our example, it will return 1)
Result from step 2, because it's an array formula, we sum up using SUM() (in our example, this return 1)
We do result from step 1 minus result from step 3 (so we get 1)
Finally, everything is inside a MAX function to avoid negative results (February would return -1 because there were no sales at all and agent B did a sale on January, so it would return -1. To avoid this, we force Excel to show biggest value between 0 and our calculation)
NOTE: Because it's an array formula, depending on your Excel version maybe you must introduce pressing CTRL+ENTER+SHIFT
If one has got access to the newest functions:
=LET(X,UNIQUE(C3:C9),VSTACK({"Month","Total of First time sales"},HSTACK(X,BYROW(X,LAMBDA(a,SUM((C3:C9=a)*(MINIFS(C3:C9,D3:D9,D3:D9,E3:E9,1)=C3:C9)))))))
I have an issue at the moment which I'm not able to resolve even with multiple combinations of If and Vlookups. I'm not doing this right.
I have a sheet which has the names of the products and an empty column for the Sl Number. The Sl number needs to be retrieved from Sheet 2 if it matches the value in the adjacent cell of the formula (This I know can be possible with Vlookup). However, I am trying to display the value even if the match is not exact. By that I mean if the product name has all the values as on the sheet 1 but also has additional information in brackets, then the value should still be displayed.
Sheet 1
Formula in A2 - A7 = "=VLOOKUP(B2, Sheet2!B:E, 2, 0)"
Sheet 2
The complete data
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.
Apologies, I'm new here and not sure how this works. So trying to do the right thing but may take some time.
Thanks Frank and Tim. I have another extended question to this.
Is there a way to retrieve the value by ignoring text in brackets on the lookup cell itself?
For example:
Sheet 1
Sl Number Name
123454 Cream SPF 30+ 50g
**NA** Bar Chocolate 70g X 6 (Sample)
234256 Hand Wash 150ml
26786 Toothpaste - Whitening 110g
Sheet 2
ID Name Sl number Manufacturer Quantity
8 Collagen Essence 10ml 456788 AL 87
9 Hand Wash 150ml 234256 AD 23
10 Bar Chocolate 70g X 6 835424 AU 234
Row 2 on Sheet 1 has the name that includes (Sample) and the same product on sheet 2 does not contain the (Sample) for that product. Is there a way I can use lookup in the above scenario?
Thank you
Tim's comment
=VLOOKUP(B2 & "*", Sheet2!B:E, 2, 0) as long as the "Extra" info is tagged onto the end of the name, and none of your product names is a
substring of another product name. – Tim Williams 53 mins ago
Will get what you are looking for, as for getting rid of text between "(...)" use
=IFERROR(IF(FIND("(",A2),LEFT(A2,FIND("(",A2)-1),A2),A2)
To create a new column that will cut out anything that has parentheses "(...)" this presumes that all of your entries has the "(...)" at the end, i.e. far right side.
As you are new, I presume you might be interested in an explanation. I'll explain what Tim and I did. If I am incorrect, anyone is free to edit.
Based on your question, it would appear that you are familiar with Excel but not the site. This said, my understanding of the key difference between your attempt and Tim's was =VLOOKUP(B2 & "*", Sheet2!B:E, 2, 0) or specifically & "*". This introduces a Wildcard to the search parameter. So if you typed "Bob" but the actual reference was "Bob's Burger" That "*" would allow ['s Burger] to be included as part of the possible search given that you set vLookup to search for Approximate rather than exact matches. =VLOOKUP(B2 & "*", Sheet2!B:E, 2, 0) specifically , 0).
As for my part, IFERROR is effectively an catch-all for errors in IF functions. If there is a error, then X. In this case, if it does not find "(" in the cell, then it will throw an error. Since it is an error, display the original cell.
As for IF(FIND("(",A2),LEFT(A2,FIND("(",A2)-1),A2) It asks Excel to look for "(" in the cell A2, if it finds it, then it it counts from the LEFT until it finds the "(" and deletes the text one space to the left of the first "(". Thus removing the "(...)".
This question relates to the Schematiq add-in for Microsoft Excel.
Using =tbl.Lookup(table, columnsToSearch, valuesToFind, resultColumn, [defaultValue]) the values in the valuesToFind column have a consistent 3 characters to the left and then varying characters after (e.g. 908-123456 or 908-321654 - i.e. 908 is always consistent)
How can I tell the function to lookup the value based on the first 3 characters only? The expected answer should be the sum of the results of the above, i.e. 500 + 300 = 800
tbl.Lookup() works by looking for an exact match - this helps ensure it's fast but in this case it means you need an extra step to calculate a column of lookup values, something like this:
A2: =tbl.CalculateColumn(A1, "code", "x => LEFT(x, 3)", "startOfCode")
This will give you a new column that you can use for the columnsToSearch argument, however tbl.Lookup() also looks for just one match - it doesn't know how to combine values together if there is more than one matching row in the table, so I think you also need one more step to group your table by the first 3 chars of the code, like this:
A3: =tbl.Group(A2, "startOfCode", "amount")
Because tbl.Group() adds values together by default, this will give you a table with a row for each distinct value of startOfCode and the subtotal of amount for each of those values. Finally, you can do the lookup exactly as you requested, which for your input table will return 800:
A4: =tbl.Lookup(A3, "startOfCode", "908", "amount")
I need to be able to search my whole table for a row that matches multiple criteria. We use a program that outputs data in the form of a .csv file. It has rows that separate sets of data, each of these headers don't have any columns that are unique in of them self but if i searched the table for multiple values i should be able to pinpoint each header row. I know i can use Application.WorksheetFunction.Match to return a row on a single criteria but i need to search on two three or four criteria.
In pseudo-code it would be something like this:
Return row number were column A = bill & column B = Woods & column C = some other data
We need to work with arrays:
There are 2 kinds of arrays:
numeric {1,0,1,1,1,0,0,1}
boolean {TRUE,FALSE,TRUE,TRUE,TRUE,FALSE,FALSE,TRUE}
to convert between them we can use:
MATCH function
MATCH(1,{1,0,1,1,1,0,0,1},0) -> will result {TRUE,FALSE,TRUE,TRUE,TRUE,FALSE,FALSE,TRUE}
simple multiplication
{TRUE,FALSE,TRUE,TRUE,TRUE,FALSE,FALSE,TRUE}*{TRUE,FALSE,TRUE,TRUE,TRUE,FALSE,FALSE,TRUE} -> will result {1,0,1,1,1,0,0,1}
you can can check an array in the match function, entering it like in the picture below, be warned that MATCH function WILL TREAT AN ARRAY AS AN "OR" FUNCTION (one match will result in true
ie:
MATCH(1,{1,0,1,1,1,0,0,1},0)=TRUE
, YOU MUST CTR+SHIFT+ENTER !!! FOR IT TO GIVE AN ARRAY BACK!!!
in the example below i show that i want to sum the hours of all the employees except the admin per case
we have 2 options, the long simple way, the complicated fast way:
long simple way
D2=SUMPRODUCT(C2:C9,(A2=A2:A9)*("admin"<>B2:B9)) <<- SUMPRODUCT makes a multiplication
basically A1={2,3,11,3,2,4,5,6}*{0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0} (IT MUST BE A NUMERIC ARRAY TO THE RIGHT IN SUMPRODUCT!!!)
ie: A1=2*0+3*1+11*1+3*0+2*0+4*0+5*0+6*0
this causes a problem because if you drag the cell to autocomplete the rest of the cells, it will edit the lower and higher values of
ie: D9=SUMPRODUCT(C9:C16,(A9=A9:A16)*("admin"<>B9:B16)), which is out of bounds
same as the above if you have a table and want to view the results in a diferent order
the fast complicated way
D3=SUMPRODUCT(INDIRECT("c2:c9"),(A3=INDIRECT("a2:a9"))*("admin"<>INDIRECT("b2:b9")))
it's the same, except that INDIRECT was used on the cells that we want not be modified when autocompleting or table reorderings
be warned that INDIRECT sometimes give VOLATILE ERROR,i recommend not using it on a single cell or using it only once in an array
f* c* i cant post pictures :(
table is:
case emplyee hours totalHoursPerCaseWithoutAdmin
1 admin 2 14
1 him 3 14
1 her 11 14
2 him 3 5
2 her 2 5
3 you 4 10
3 admin 5 10
3 her 6 10
and for the functions to check the arrays, open the insert function button (it looks like and fx) then doubleclick MATCH and then if you enter inside the Lookup_array a value like
A2=A2:A9 for our example it will give {TRUE,TRUE,TRUE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE} that is because only the first 3 lines are from case=1
Something like this?
Assuming that you data in in A1:C20
I am looking for "Bill" in A, "Woods" in B and "some other data" in C
Change as applicable
=IF(INDEX(A1:A20,MATCH("Bill",A1:A20,0),1)="Bill",IF(INDEX(B1:B20,MATCH("Woods",B1:B20,0),1)="Woods",IF(INDEX(C1:C20,MATCH("some other data",C1:C20,0),1)="some other data",MATCH("Bill",A1:A20,0),"Not Found")))
SNAPSHOT
I would use this array* formula (for three criteria):
=MATCH(1,((Range1=Criterion1)*(Range2=Criterion2)*(Range3=Criterion3)),0)
