I would like to beg for my stupidity, bear with me, I am very new!
I will try to make it as clear as possible.
I want to create a excel program or possibly just do it with excel, that I can use for my business.
Let's say I have a customer that prepaid $100. He purchased $3 the first day and $8 the next day.
I would have a value of $100. I subtract $3 then the $100 would become $97. Then subtract $8 so it would become $89. So basically, it keeps updates the amount.
I couldn't figure how to do this in excel. Is there a way to allow this in excel? or do I have to make a excel workbook or excel template using commands?
I would love to get help from professionals!
Maybe this is the sort of thing you want:
This seems basically to be as described by #Jerry. C2 has an entered value and other values are entered in ColumnB. C4 onwards are simply the formula in C3 copied down to suit.

I am creating a spreadsheet where the user can enter different numbers and have a different result be returned.
For example if they were to enter a number that started 07, it would show 1, 070 it would show 2, 0345 3 and so on.
I have tried the IF and LEFT formulas but I am struggling!
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Sorry I was trying not to write war and peace but have missed out too much.
The users will write in phone area codes, e.g. 0345 or 0714 or 0701 and the sheet will return the price.
The price can be different depending on the first 4 digits. To keep it simple for this purpose I want it to be able to detect if the area code starts with 07 to show a "price" of 1, 070 price of 2 and 0345 a price of 3.
I have 10 different area codes but just added the 3 above for examples.
I hope this is clearer.
To get the length of a string with the leading zeros removed use the array function
=LEN(MID(A2,MATCH(TRUE,(MID(A2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A2))),1)<>"0"),0),LEN(A2)))
Replace A2 with the cell that the users will change and hit [Ctrl Shift Enter] on the cell with the formula to activate the array function.

I have a formula that is calculating if a certain cell is greater than 0 then multiplying 2 cells together. I only want to show the result though within one cell and then after that time the following cells are to be nought. At the moment I have cells with the same amount in e.g. Jan = £7, Feb = £7 but I need Feb to be 0 as Jan already has a sum in it.
=IF(M1>0,$F$1*$F$9,0)
Try using the AND and OR commands...
=IF(AND(M1>0, OR(ISBLANK(janCell),janCell=0)),$F$1*$F$9, 0)
Note that you haven't provided a great deal of useful information there. We know nothing about the structure of your work sheet, where the month results are stored etc. You should think about your question more before writing it up.
Hope the formula above helps.

I'm working on a budgeting spreadsheet that has a different replacement cycle for equipment and I want to visualize when everything will be scheduled to be replaced.
Column 1=name, Column 2=deployed, Column 3=expected life, Column 4=retire date, Column 5=price
I want to have another table next to it that shows the next several deploy dates (for the next 15 years) based on the expected life. Right now, I'm having to manually count over X number of cells and enter in the price and then count over again.... for each row.
I know there has to be a automated way to do this, but I'm new to excel macros and I've looked at several functions, but can't get anything figured out. What functions should I be looking at?
A formula like:
=IF((G$1-YEAR($B2))/$C2=ROUND((G$1-YEAR($B2))/$C2,0),$E2,"")
Should do the trick
(the above for column G, it is assumed the year is in G1)

I'm trying to write a vlookup formula that will
1). check for duplicates in the list and
2). if there is a duplicate, then check the dates, and pull the correct rate in the vlookup return value, depending on the date.
So for example, if Michael has a rate of $100 per hour for 7/1/2017, I can assume this is his rate until noted otherwise with an additional line. On 7/3/2017 his rate changes to $120. So for hours worked on 7/1/2017 and 7/2/2017, the rate should be $100, but on 7/3/2017 and on, the rate should be $120, or until a new line is added for Michael indicating a new rate on a specific date.
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks!
You could do something like this if you sort by name and by date descending
Note it's an array formula so you need to use Ctrl+Shift+Enter
You could do this with MAXIFS(). The multiple conditions lets you find the multiple conditions, but MAXIFS() will always return an individual value unlike SUMIFS or COUNTIFS. Place hte formula in cell F2 and fill it down
=MAXIFS('Effective Rate'!$C:$C,'Effective Rate'!$A:$A,A2,'Effective Rate'!$B:$B,"<="&B2)

i want to create a formula like this,
=DATE(YEAR(any)),MONTH((any)),14)
i don't care about year or month only the day.
apparently excel doesn't let me add "any" as a fuction. can someone please help me?
Consider:
=DATE(RANDBETWEEN(1,9999),RANDBETWEEN(1,12),14)
To use the current year and month, use this formula:
=DATE(YEAR(NOW()), MONTH(NOW()), 14)
However, the month does matter if you wanted to put 31 for the day (or 29/30 if the month happens to be February), so you might want to just always use a specific year and month that will allow for maximum flexibility, such as:
=DATE(2000,1,14)
One thing I would suggest is to ask yourself why you are storing this as a date in the first place if you only care about the day of the month. You could just store 14 and label the column "Day of Month". To better answer your question, it would be helpful to know what are you actually doing with these dates.
