I am trying to create an excel formula using SUM and SUMIF but cannot find how to.
I have a first column(A) which is the total time of a piece of work and then for each row the time spent in that task during each day(columns B, C, ...).
For each day(columns B, C, ...), the formula would return the sum of only those values in column A that(for that specific column), relate to task that have been completed that day: the sum of all cells within a row is equals or more than the time the task was allocated.
Example for one 12-hours task:
A B C D E
12 4 6 2 0
Using the formula:
A B C D E
12 4 6 2 0
0 0 0 12 0
where 12 is displayed in column D because 4 + 6 + 2 = 12(Column A)
Second example(3 tasks):
A B C D E
10 9 0 1 0
21 8 8 5 0
5 0 0 3 2
Using the formula:
A B C D E
10 9 0 1 0
21 8 8 5 0
5 0 0 3 2
0 0 0 31 5
Where:
31(Day D) = 10(Task 1 is finished that day) + 21(Task 2 is finished that day too)
5(Day E) = Task 3 is finished that day
Tried this formula (for Day B):
SUMIF(B1:B3,">=A1:A3",A1:A3)
(Sum those values in column A if the cells in that row p to column B(in this case just B) are >= than those iterated).
Then for column C, it would be,
SUMIF(C1:C3 + B1:B3,">=A1:A3",A1:A3)
The above examples did not work(first returns zero, second is an invalid formula),
Any ideas?
Thank you.
Formula below given by user ServerS works fine:
Col B:
=IF(SUM(B2)=A2,A2,0)+IF(SUM(B3)=A3,A3,0)+IF(SUM(B4)=A4,A4,0)+IF(SUM(B5)=A5,A5,0)
Col C:
=IF(SUM(B2:C2)=A2,A2,0)+IF(SUM(B3:C3)=A3,A3,0)+IF(SUM(B4:C4)=A4,A4,0)+IF(SUM(B5:C5)=A5,A5,0)
Col D
=IF(SUM(B2:D2)=A2,A2,0)+IF(SUM(B3:D3)=A3,A3,0)+IF(SUM(B4:D4)=A4,A4,0)+IF(SUM(B5:D5)=A5,A5,0)
However there are two inconvenients:
if new rows are added it needs to be adapted and include another IF(). Would be better to have a generic SUM if IF's
Trying to propagate the formula to adjacent cells is not possible as it would change part of the formula like "=A2,A2,0" to "=A3,A3,0" which needs to keep the same.
Any other ideas that improve this, if possible, are appreciated.
You can avoid using IF with a sumproduct. This method allows use to insert any row you want. Make sure range are correct (eg A2:A5 with 5 the last row used). I would go for this :
in column B :
=SOMMEPROD(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5)))
in column C :
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5+C2:C5)))-B6
in column D
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5+C2:C5+D2:D5)))-C6-B6
in column E
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$5)*($A$2:$A$5=(B2:B5+C2:C5+D2:D5+E2:E5)))-D6-C6-B6

I am creating an excel file to swap excel columns which contains the number corresponding to the ASCII character such as low letter, upper letter, number, special characters.
Here is the original table and the corresponding letter to the number
A B C D E F G H
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
I want to swap each of the cell to the end. Meaning I need to swap 1 to 8. 2 to 7. 3 to 6.
A B C D E F G H
8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
I would want to use the excel function to do this. Is there a way to achieve this? I have 156 columns.
what about this method.
A 1
B 2
C 3
D 4
E 5
F 6
G 7
H 8
If your data is always ordered then sorting would work.
But let's assume your data is not always alphabetically or numerically sortable, you can use a formula to reverse an unsorted list:
-
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
1
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
2
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
3
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1
Rows 1 and 2 are your original data. Row 3 is the reversing formula.
Add the formula below into cell A3
=INDEX($A$2:$G$2, COLUMNS(A2:$G$2))
Note (important) that the first Range of the INDEX is absolute $A$2:$G$2, but the only the last value of the columns range is absolute A2:$G$2 (no dollars)
Either drag cell A3 across to H3 or copy cell A3 and paste over B3:H3
This has an advantage over plain sorting in that it can reverse unsorted lists for you.
I have two problems here.
The data is as follows:
Col X Col Y
A 10
A 12
A
A 32
B 11
B 31
B 9
C 8
C 7
C 3
D 1
D 3
D
D 9
I need to do the following:
Count the entries in Column Y using the Categories in Column X, for ex. A repeats 4 times in Column X but has 3 total corresponding numbers in column Y, i need the 3 count of the numbers in Column Y.
Calculate the median of those numbers using the category (excluding blanks whenever there are, not to be assumed as 0 by the code), for ex. Median for A is 12, Median for D will be 3.
Please help.
So 1 is:
=COUNTIFS(X:X,"A",Y:Y,"<>")
2 is:
=MEDIAN(IF(X:X="A",IF(NOT(ISBLANK(Y:Y)),Y:Y)))
Hold down ctrl + shift when you're using 2 as it's an array formula
In EXCEL sheet I have 1728 rows and 2 columns (L and O). I am doing addition of these 2 columns in column P. Further I want to count the occurrence in this column if addition is EQUAL to 2 or 4 or 6 or 8 BUT condition here is that The COUNT should be such that BOTH the columns L and O are EQUAL and Their addition is either 2 or 4 or 6 or 8.
This means that only the columns in L and O with values "1+1" , "2+2", "3+3", "4+4" should be counted. The addition of "1+3", "4+2" should not be counted.
=COUNTIF(P:P,4)
does not work.
L O P M
===========================
1 1 2 1 (NO OF 2'S)
2 2 4 1 (NO OF 4'S)
3 3 6 1 (NO OF 6'S)
1 3 4* NO TO BE COUNTED
4 4 8 1 (NO OF 8'S)
2 4 6* NOT TO BE COUNTED
4 2 6*
AS SEEN ABOVE RESULT OF COUNTING IS STORED IN M. Let me know the formula
=IF(L29=M29,SUMPRODUCT(--($L$29:$L$35=$M$29:$M$35)*(L29=$L$29:$L$35)),"Not Counted")
My data started in row 29 so you will need to adjust the references. It counts the entire table in 1 shot. So if you added a row to the bottom that had 1 and 1 and 2, the results in column M in your first row would become 2 and the same for the row you just added.
Will this formula help...?
=IF(AND(A1=B1,OR(SUM(A1,B1)=2,SUM(A1,B1)=4,SUM(A1,B1)=6,SUM(A1,B1)=8)),SUM(A1,B1),"NOT TO BE COUNTED")
Just drag the formula till you have data. You will need to adjust the references.
Here is the reference data.
I'm looking for a way to find the first specific value above a certain cell.
Using the example below, in the result column every time I hit a A in COL2, I need to substract the value in COL1 to the first A value above.
The trouble seems finding a way to keep the range dynamic...
I thought of =IF(B5="A";A5-INDIRECT("A"&MATCH("A";B:B;0));"")
But of course that only works for the first one as Match will always pick up the first one.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Example :
COL1 COL2 Result
1 A
2 0
3 0
4 A 4 - 1 = 3
5 0
6 A 6 - 4 = 2
7 0
8 0
9 0
10 A 10 - 6 = 4
Try this:
=IF(AND(ROW(B2)<>2,B2="A"),A2-INDEX($A$1:$A1,AGGREGATE(14,6,ROW($1:1)/($B$1:$B1="A"),1)),"")
The AGGREGATE() Function was introduced in 2010.
In D2 enter =IF(B2="A",A2-INDIRECT("A"&MATCH("A"&(E2-1),F:F,0)),"")
In E2 enter =IF(B2="a",COUNTIFS($B$2:B2,"a"),"")
In F2 enter =B2&E2
Copy formulas from D, E and F down all your rows
Column D is the result you're looking for
I'm trying to build a macro in excel that will take a bunch of data like this:
D 1 2 3 4 5
D 1 2 3 9 5
D 1 2 3 4 5
And process it to insert a row when a value in column 4 differs. I also want to populate this row at the same time with either static values or a formula.
So ideally, taking the above table I would get:
D 1 2 3 4 5
H A B C D E <- This row got added as there was a change in column D
D 1 2 3 9 5
H A B C D E <- This row got added as there was a change in column D
D 1 2 3 4 5
I would want this to iterate through a quite long list.
Can anyone give me any pointers?
Thank you for your help.
Something like this should work. I didn't test it but if you run it and use F8 to iterate through it should be easy to debug if it doesn't work exactly as intended.
Dim i as integer
for i = 2 to cells(1,1).end(xldown).row 'itereate thru all rows
if cells(i,4).value <> cells(i-1,4).value then 'compare the cells in col 4 with previous row
rows(i).entirerow.insert 'insert a row if the values don't match
cells(i,1) = "A"
cells(i,2) = "B"
cells(i,3) = "C"
cells(i,4) = "D"
cells(i,5) = "E"
i = i + 1 'since we inserted a row we have to make i bigger to go down
end if
next i
