EXCEL end result is showing 1 when supposed to be blank - excel

im creating a recreational spreadsheet to keep track of my soccer league standings.
Here is my problem....(IN BOLD)
HOME/AWAY OPPONENT GOALS FOR GOALS AGAINST W T L
H RED 4 2 1
A RED 1 3 1
1
1
1
(and so on...)
Im using a formula for Ties ---> =if(c5=d5,1,0)
what changes should i make for the end result to be blank until I enter a value in the goals for/against column.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Use isblank to test for an empty cell and a pair of speech marks ("") to show nothing in a cell until the logical test is true.
eg
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(c5),ISBLANK(d5)),"",IF(c5=d5,1,0))
That will keep the result from showing until both the scores have been entered

excel : determine if a combination of several cells exists and output result

Considering the following data :
sheet1 (customers)
A
0 customer_name
1 john
2 kevin
3 mickael
sheet2 (products)
A
0 product_name
1 book
2 ball
3 game
sheet3 (orders)
A B
0 customer_name product_name
1 john book
2 john game
3 mickael ball
I would like to know for each combination of customer and product if an order has been ordered and display it in the sheet1 to get something like that :
sheet1 (customers updated )
A B C D
0 customer_name book ball game
1 john 1 0 1
2 kevin 0 0 0
3 mickael 0 1 0
I know how to do that with "code" (by doing a macro in vba or a small exe in c# that will update the file), but I want to do it (if its possible) by just setting a formula inside my sheet (fyi, I can put the 3 inputs in the same sheet if needed, that's not a constraint
Updated :
with the previous configuration described, I have put the following formula in sheet1 B2 : =COUNTIFS(Sheet3!$A:$A;$A2;Sheet3!$B:$B;B$2), and when running the formula and extending it to every cell in my sheet I am getting everywhere the value #NAME? (I've translated if from french so I am not sure if its the right error in english). I think where I am making a mistake is that I am not using sheet2, how can I say first to "do all the combinations possible of customers insheet1 and products in sheet2 and look for those combinations in sheet3, knowing that I am in sheet1 and that I want to display the result like aking before?
Use COUNTIFS:
=COUNTIFS(Sheet3!$A:$A,$A2,Sheet3!$B:$B,B$1)

With SharePoint calculations, How can I do do a count on if one column is greater than X as well as another column being greater than Y?

I want to do the following with a SharePoint calculated field:
I have two columns that count results from other columns called Red and Amber.
IF Red is 4 or more fail otherwise pass, if red is 3 or more and amber is 2 or more fail otherwise pass, if red is 2 or more and amber is 3 or more fail otherwise pass.
I've tried the following and it did not work:
IF([Red]>3,"Fail","Pass")+IF(AND([Red]>2,[Amber]>1),"Fail","Pass")+IF(AND([Red]>1,[Amber]>2),"Fail","Pass")
It just gave me the result: #VALUE
Thanks
Try:
IF([Red]>3,"Fail",IF(AND([Red]>2,[Amber]>1),"Fail",IF(AND([Red]>1,[Amber]>2),"Fail","Pass")))

Dynamically sort list based off associated values with tie-breaker values

I'm trying to sort students based off frequency of participation. I have a table that is automatically generated totaling up how often a student has participated in the last few days.
I want it to do 2 things that I can't figure out.
I want it to ignore students that are at 0 removing them from the resulting rankings.
The first number is most important but I want it to reference the next value in the result of a tie.
Short example of table:
Andy - 1 1 2 3
Brad - 0 1 2 3
Cade - 1 2 3 4
Dane - 1 1 1 2
Desired result:
Cade - 1
Andy - 1
Dane - 1
The tie-breaker isn't that important and I figure I can have conditional formatting to remove children at 0, but I still can't seem to figure it out.
The closest formulas I have found in my searching are:
=INDEX($A$10:$A$9,MATCH(ROWS($C$1:C1),$C$1:$C$9,0))
This one doesn't work because it returns #N/A for pretty much all students who are tied.
=IFERROR(INDEX($C$1:$C$9,MATCH(SMALL(NOT($C$1:$C$9="")*IF(ISNUMBER($C$1:$C$9),COUNTIF($C$1:$C$9,"<="&$C$1:$C$9),COUNTIF($C$1:$C$9,"<="&$C$1:$C$9)+SUM(--ISNUMBER($C$1:$C$9))),ROWS($C$1:C1)+SUM(--ISBLANK($C$1:$C$9))),NOT($C$1:$C$9="")*IF(ISNUMBER($C$1:$C$9),COUNTIF($C$1:$C$9,"<="&$C$1:$C$9),COUNTIF($C$1:$C$9,"<="&$C$1:$C$9)+SUM(--ISNUMBER($C$1:$C$9))),0)),"")
I had this formula that can handle ties but it needs to be OFFSET but I don't know how since it is an array formula. Also, with both these formulas it reverses the ranks with the lowest values at the top. If anyone could assist me I would greatly appreciate it. I'm doing this so that I can give all students a chance to participate equally.
Use a helper column. In that column put the following formula:
=IF(B1=0,"n/a",SUMPRODUCT(B1:E1/10^(COLUMN(B1:E1)-MIN(COLUMN(B1:E1)))))
This will return a single number based on the rankings.
Then in your output column use:
=IFERROR(INDEX(A:A,MATCH(LARGE(F:F,ROW(1:1)),F:F,0)),"")
Then a simple VLOOKUP to return the first number:
=IF(I1<>"",VLOOKUP(I1,A:B,2,FALSE),"")

Concatenating INDEX/MATCH with multiple criteria and multiple matches

I am using Excel to track a team game where players are divided into teams and subteams within teams. Each player within a subteam scores a certain number of points, and I would like to have a summary string for each player with the number of points other players in the same subteam scored.
Example:
A B C D
PLAYER TEAM SUBTEAM POINTS
Alice Red 1 70
Bob Red 1 20
Charlie Red 1 10
Dave Red 2 70
Erin Red 2 30
Frank Blue 1 55
Grace Blue 1 45
My desired output looks like this:
A B C D E
PLAYER TEAM SUBTEAM POINTS SUMMARY
Alice Red 1 70 Bob:20, Charlie:10
Bob Red 1 20 Alice:70, Charlie:10
Charlie Red 1 10 Alice:70, Bob:20
Dave Red 2 70 Erin:30
Erin Red 2 30 Dave:70
Frank Blue 1 55 Grace:45
Grace Blue 1 45 Frank:55
The furthest I was able to go is a combination of CONCATENATE, INDEX, and MATCH in an array formula:
{=CONCATENATE(INDEX($A$2:$A$8,MATCH(1,(C2=$C$2:$C$8)*(B2=$B$2:$B$8),0)), ":", INDEX($D$2:$D$8,MATCH(1,(C2=$C$2:$C$8)*(B2=$B$2:$B$8),0)))}
This unfortunately just outputs a summary for the first player in the subteam:
A B C D E
PLAYER TEAM SUBTEAM POINTS SUMMARY
Alice Red 1 70 Alice:70
Bob Red 1 20 Alice:70
Charlie Red 1 10 Alice:70
Dave Red 2 70 Dave:70
Erin Red 2 30 Dave:70
Frank Blue 1 55 Grace:45
Grace Blue 1 45 Grace:45
What I need to do now is:
Excluding the player for the summary (I don't want Alice in the summary for Alice, but only Bob and Charlie)
Getting it to work for multiple matches (there can be an arbitrary number of players in each subteam)
Getting CONCATENATE to work with an unknown number of strings (because as said above, there can be an arbitrary number of players in each subteam).
Ideas appreciated!
I put together a helper column that concatenates each player/points and the TEXTJOINIFS from TEXTJOIN for xl2010/xl2013 with criteria for the desired results.
Unfortunately Excel (prior to Excel 2016) cannot conveniently join text. The best you can do (if you want to avoid VBA) is to use some helper cells and split this "Summary" into separate cells.
See example below. The array formula in cell E4 is dragged to cell J10.
= IFERROR(INDEX($A$4:$D$10,MATCH(SMALL(IF(($B$4:$B$10=$B4)*($C$4:$C$10=$C4)*($A$4:$A$10<>$A4),
ROW($A$4:$A$10)),E$3),ROW($A$4:$A$10),0),MATCH(E$2,$A$1:$D$1,0)),"")
Note this is an array formula, so you must press Ctrl+Shift+Enter instead of just Enter after typing this formula.
Of course, in this example I assume 3 players. Your requirement of arbitrary amount of players cannot be met with formulas alone, but you can just extend the "Summary" section over to the right as far as necessary.
If you really wanted to, you could even concatenate the "Summary" rows to form a single cell, e.g. something like:
= CONCATENATE(E4,": ",F4,", ",...)

count the total counts of cell per days

I am trying to find out the total number of order made in a day.
My data is like this :-
Date | Time | Product | Unit Sold
7/24/2018 10:45:59 Fries 1
7/24/2018 16:45:59 Fries 1
7/25/2018 12:45:59 Fries 1
7/25/2018 11:45:59 Fries 1
7/25/2018 1:45:59 Fries 1
7/25/2018 1:45:59 Fries 1
Now here you can see the count of 7/24/2018 is 2 , 7/25/2018 is 4 ..
I can manually filter and select all column and just copy the count from bottom bar.
but the problem is I have calculate of about 3 months of about 10 different branches.
I did googled up and found out about COUNTIF . and here what I tried
=COUNTIFS(range,">="&date1,range,"<="&date2)
But it returns me #N/A
Can anyone help me on here?
What you are asking is very simple, and can done with a little focus.
Step 1: Make sure the dates in date column are in the same format as with your system date. If yes then move to step 2, if not, Select date column -> then goto Data tab in Excel ribbon -> Under data tools you will find Text to columns -> Click that and convert the Dates to your system date format. move to Step 2
Step 2:
The formuala you mentioned
=COUNTIFS(range,">="&date1,range,"<="&date2)
I am assuming is an example and real code should look something like this unless you are using Names for ranges
=COUNTIFS(A2:A7,">="&B9,A2:A7,"<="&B10)
OR a better version would be
=SUMIFS(D2:D7,A2:A7,">="&B9,A2:A7,"<="&B10)
since this formula will actually sum up the Unit Sold column instead of date column. Example attached in image below. Enjoy.
