I have a table as:
(Column A)Company Name | (Column B)Company Number
ABC | 123
ABC |
CBA |
CBA | 234
ACB | 567
ACB |
In Column B I need to insert data in row 2 as row 1 (or vice versa) because row 1 and 2 in Column A have same data. The table i have has about 6M such rows and hence looking for some help.
I think you need filters and then just paste the values you need.
Column: A | B | C | D
Row 1: Variable | Margin | Sales | Index
Row 2: banana | 2 | 20 | 1
Row 3: apple | 5 | 10 | 2
Row 4: apple | 10 | 20 | 3
Row 5: apple | 10 | 10 | 4
Row 6: banana | 10 | 15 | 5
Row 7: apple | 10 | 15 | 6
"Variable" sits in column A, row 1.
"Fruit" refers to A2:A6
"Margin" refers to B2:B6
"Sales" refers to C2:C6
"Index" refers to D2:D6
Question:
From the above table, I would like to find the row of two largest "Sales" values when Fruit = "apple" and Margin >= 10. The correct answer would be values from row 3 and 6. I have tried the following methods without success.
I have tried
=LARGE(IF(Fruit="apple",IF(Margin>=10,Sales)),{1,2}) + CSE
and this returns 20 and 15, but not the row.
I have tried
=MATCH(LARGE(IF(Fruit="apple",IF(Margin>=10,sales)),{1,2}),Sales,0)+1
but returns row 2 and 6 as the first matches to come up are the 20 and 15 from "banana" not "apple".
I have tried
=INDEX(D2:D7,LARGE(IF(Fruit="apple",IF(Margin>=10,ROW(Sales)-ROW(INDEX(Sales,1,1))+1)),{1,2}),1)
But this returns row 7 and 5 (i.e. "Index" 6 and 4) as these are just the first occurrences of "apple" starting from the bottom of the table. They are not the largest values.
Can this be done with an Excel formula or do would I need a macro? If macro, can I please get help with the macro? Thank you!
use this formula:
=INDEX(D:D,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($A$2:$A$7)/(($B$2:$B$7>=10)*($A$2:$A$7="apple")*($C$2:$C$7 = AGGREGATE(14,6,$C$2:$C$7/(($B$2:$B$7>=10)*($A$2:$A$7="apple")),F2))),1))
I put 1 and 2 in F2 and F3 respectively to find the first and second.
Edit #1
to deal with duplicates we need to add (COUNTIF($G$1:G1,$D$2:$D$7) = 0). The $G$1:G1 needs to refer to the cell directly above the first placement of this formula. So the formula needs to start in at least row 2.
=INDEX(D:D,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($A$2:$A$7)/((COUNTIF($G$1:G1,$D$2:$D$7) = 0)*($B$2:$B$7>=10)*($A$2:$A$7="apple")*($C$2:$C$7 = AGGREGATE(14,6,$C$2:$C$7/(($B$2:$B$7>=10)*($A$2:$A$7="apple")),F2))),1))
I am attempting to write a macro to find February 2nd of each year in column A and then count the number of rows (days) until the value in column B changes. This count could be put in a new column, column C, but on the same row as the February 2nd that it correlates to, in this case row 3.
Using the table below the output to C3 would be 5. I am not counting the day of February 2nd but I am counting the day the change occurs. This is for 100+ years that I will need to loop through.
id | A | B | C
----------------------------
1 | 1946/01/31 | 0 |
2 | 1946/02/01 | 0 |
3 | 1946/02/02 | 0 |
4 | 1946/02/03 | 0 |
5 | 1946/02/04 | 0 |
6 | 1946/02/05 | 0 |
7 | 1946/02/06 | 0 |
8 | 1946/02/07 | 2 |
9 | 1946/02/08 | 0 |
The real challenge is to do it with a formula. Well, 2 formulas.
The first formula in cell E2 finds the date 2nd Feb by looking for "02/02" at the end of the text in column B and if it is found it places the contents of C2 in that cell. if it's not found it compares C1 with D1, the 2 cells above to see if they are the same because a match was previously found and if so it takes the contents of the cell above. This results in the zeros you can see in column E between 2nd Feb and the point where column C changes.
Formula for E2 and then autofill down to the end of your data
=IF(AND(MONTH(B2)=2,DAY(B2)=2),C1,IF(AND(E1<>"",E1=C1),E1,""))
Now all we need to do is count the cells in column D by looking for the first non blank cell in column D AND(E1="",E2<>"") and then count all the cells that match that cell. I'm not sure what gap you're expecting to find but you can change the 200 to ensure that you count everything. The last part is to take away 1 so that the 2nd feb row is not being counted.
Formula for D2 and then autofill down to the end of your data
=if(AND(E1="",E2<>""),countif(E2:E200,E2)-1,"")
To illustrate the problem, consider the following data: 1,2,3,5,3,2. Enter this in a spreadsheet column and make a pivot table displaying the counts. Making use of the information in this pivot table, I want to create a new table, with counts for every value between 1 and 5.
1,1
2,2
3,2
4,0
5,1
What is a good way to do this? My first thought was to use VLOOKUP, trapping any lookup error. But GETPIVOTDATA is apparently preferred for pivot tables. In any case, I failed with both approaches.
To be a bit more specific, assume my pivot table of counts is "PivotTable1" and that I have already created a one column table holding all the needed lookup keys (i.e., the numbers from 1 to 5). What formula should I put in the second column of this new table?
So starting with this:
To illustrate the problem, consider the following data: 1,2,3,5,3,2. Enter this in a spreadsheet column and make a pivot table displaying the counts.
I then created the table like this:
X | Freq
- | ---------------------------------------------
1 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",R3C1,"X",RC[-1]),0)
2 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",R3C1,"X",RC[-1]),0)
3 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",R3C1,"X",RC[-1]),0)
4 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",R3C1,"X",RC[-1]),0)
5 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",R3C1,"X",RC[-1]),0)
Or, in A1 mode:
X | Freq
- | -----------------------------------------
1 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",F3),0)
2 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",F4),0)
3 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",F5),0)
4 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",F6),0)
5 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",F7),0)
The column X in my summary table is in column F.
Or as a table formula:
X | Freq
- | -------------------------------------------
1 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",[#X]),0)
2 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",[#X]),0)
3 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",[#X]),0)
4 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",[#X]),0)
5 | =IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("X",$A$3,"X",[#X]),0)
That gave me this result:
X | Freq
- | ----
1 | 1
2 | 2
3 | 2
4 | 0
5 | 1
If performance is not a major concern, you can bypass the pivot table and use the COUNTIF() function.
Create a list of all consecutive numbers that you want the counts for and use COUNTIF() for each of them with the first parameter being the range of your input numbers and the second being the number of the ordered result list:
A B C D
1 1 1 =COUNTIF(A:A,C1)
2 2 2 =COUNTIF(A:A,C2)
3 3 3 =COUNTIF(A:A,C3)
4 5 4 =COUNTIF(A:A,C4)
5 3 5 =COUNTIF(A:A,C5)
6 2
Suppose i need to multiply the entries in these two columns in the following order in MS Excel
This is just an example
A | B
1 | 5
2 | 10
3 | 15
4 | 20
bolck1:1*5
block2:(2*5)+(1*10)
block3:(3*5)+(2*10)+(1*15)
block4:(4*5)+(3*10)+(2*15)+(1*20)
how would i do it?
I used SUMPRODUCT(A4:A1,B4:B1) but it returned the same old sum 150 as was the case with SUMPRODUCT(A4:A4,B1:B4).
You could add a helper column. In C1 put:
=SUMPRODUCT(A1*INDEX($B$1:$B$4,1):INDEX($B$1:$B$4,COUNT($B$1:$B$4)-(ROW(1:1)-1)))
Drag it down then total the results:
