I have been using a great spreadsheet [URL] .... that allows the auto population of dates/events onto a calendar.
The spreadsheet only allows the input of 7 events per day, yet I am finding that I often have more than 7 events to schedule. How to modify spreadsheet to allow for more than 7 events to be populated in one day?
I am trying to auto-populate a table with data looked up from another sheet. The functions I have used are: Data Validation, vlookup, ISerror and if functions.
Cell B4 in sheet2 uses Data Validation to pick data from sheet1 (in this case "tax") and auto populate the table with the information- Job type, Name, employee type and Job title. If i change from Tax to HR, the table should get auto-populated with the correct information.
I have setup vlookups but I am unable to get it working. I am a novice at using vlookups (I learn it just 2 days ago) and am struggling to get it work. I am not even sure if vlookup is the right tool to get this job done.
I'm trying to auto populate a calender style sheet in Excel 2010 based on data from a Work Schedule sheet. The work schedule sheet contains a list of jobs, with each row representing a different job. There is a column for the start date (e.g. 25/04/14) and a column for the end date (e.g. 26/04/14). There are other columns which select resources such as people and vehicles. Each resource may appear on any one of several columns for each row, e.g. Site Operative 1, Site Operative 2 etc.
On the calendar sheet, in which one cell represents one day (e.g. 25/04/14), all the dates are shown along the top going right and all the resources are shown on the left going down.
On the calender sheet, in every cell I want a formula that will look at the Work Schedule sheet and see if that particular resource is being used on that particular date. If it does, the cell can display information from another cell such as the job number or job name to which the resource is assigned; if it doesn't, the resource isn't being used so it can display "Free" or "Available".
I currently use task scheduler to open a a spreadsheet at 4am every morning and run a macro. This macro refreshes data pulled from an accounting software. The macro also closes the spreadsheet at a specific time. After this is complete I have task scheduler open a separate spreadsheet and runs a macro to pull the data from the first spreadsheet into a dashboard presentation of sales data.
This all works fine...what I am looking to do is make sure both instances of excel get closed. Currently, this whole process is complete around 6am and when I get to work around 7 or 8 am there are two instances of excel still open. The workbooks are closed but excel is still open. When I am in the office I can just close these instances of excel but if I am out of the office these two instances of excel stay open and mess things up for the next mornings refresh.
Is there a way to make sure both instances of excel get closed? I am using the code below to close the spreadsheets.
Code:
Sub Closeworkbook()
ActiveWorkbook.Close True
End Sub
I am looking for an excel calendar that will auto-populate content into it based on a spreadsheet that I fill in.
Maybe I would just need the formula that would be inserted into each calendar day? I'm not sure how you would set this up, but I'm open to suggestions!
I have attached the .xls file for your reference.
For example: The comment "Client 1 - KOM" would populate in a blank calendar in excel on the date 3/23/2009.

i have a form that in excel using the Active X Controls thanks from the help on this board the form is working a great and praised by peers for the simplicity and design.
Anyway i would now like to add some code that will auto populate certain text boxes with information held on the PC?
The information is held on the PC so info like Environ$("USERNAME") etc.... what i would like is when the user opens the form these fields are populated with this information..
I have had a go but still cannot get it to work... Here is my attempt

I have a workbook that has multiple sheets. And on lets say as an example the first and third pages I have text boxes "reason for text boxes is for sizing issues" that are on both pages that are identical and have the same info that needs to be entered into them. What I would like to accomplish is when info is placed in those text boxes on the first sheet their values auto populate onto the third sheet and so and so forth. Being multiple text boxes on multiple sheets, going through all 5 would be daunting and time consuming.

The spreadsheet has the following columns: Name, Product, Prod Cost, Shipping Cost, Payment Received, Total. I have made a list way off the the right of the spreadsheet with all the products that I sell, so in the "Product" column I can use a pulldown menu and choose the item from the list. However, I was wondering if I could create it in such a way that when I chose the item from the list, it would automatically put the cost in the "Product Cost" field. Is this possible?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two spreadsheets, one is a Log Sheet for invoices that we have been printing out and filling in my hand throughout the day as our field technicians complete their work. The second spreadsheet has a sheet for each technician where we manually input the technician's invoice numbers and payroll for each job completed on that day.
What I'd like is a way to combine these spreadsheets so that instead of printing and filling in the first sheet by hand, I could input the invoice data and have it automatically populate the cells for the appropriate technician.
This is the running log we keep throughout the day:

Then at the end of the day, we painstakingly transcribe the data for invoice number and payroll onto this sheet for each technician:

What I want is for Excel to automatically fill in each technician's payroll log with invoice number and payroll time as we fill in the running log throughout the day, is this a doable thing?
I need to make a schedule for testing where I check the samples every 3 days but if that date hits on a weekend I want it to role over to the monday if it hits on a Sunday and Friday if it hits on a Saturday. In other words wait an extra day if it hits on a Sunday and check the sample a day early if it would normally be on a Saturday.
I have been playing around with the WORKDAY command and some of the other date functions but I can't figure this one out.
Basically i am trying to auto populate cells using two dates as the parameters, set up is
A1 - Start Date
B1 - Finish Date
C1 - Jan 07
D1 - Feb 07
E1 - Mar 07....and this carries on across till the end of the year.
What i am wanting excel to do is to be able to put in a start date and finish date in to the relevant cells.....this then populates a fixed figure across in to the correct month.
Eg
start date 05/07/07
finish date 17/10/07
This then puts in the figure 0.2 in to each cell that correspond with each month....July 07/Aug 07/Sep 07/Oct 07.
So in effect it is giving a gantt chart but with data in it.
One more thing....the start and finish dates could well be out of the range.....
eg
so start could be 07/08/06 and end could be 18/04/07 which would mean that all of the fields would need populating.
I've been trying for some time now to figure out how to have one sheet automatically fill in another based on a larger data sheet. I'm trying to find a way to take a monthly calendar which contains a row for each employee and column for each day and use that to create smaller lists on another sheet. Basically if someone puts in for a day off, or has a medical appointment etc, that person has a coded single letter for that day for tracking and planning purposes. I want to have a second sheet that references those codes and makes individual lists (the following people are on vacation, these people have a medical appointment etc.)
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am looking to create a table with ranked projects from a different tab that is able to pull data from the same tab and change based on value updates. It is difficult to explain, so I have attached the file below.
What I am looking to do is pull the ranked projects from tab #7 - Scoring to tab #5 - Final list. Each project has a unique ID#, but a lot of the columns I need populated are not unique. I tried using a combination of arrays, but it always returned a #value into the cells.
P.s: In tab #5 - Data sheet, the formulas in I5 and P5 work, but are pretty ridiculous, and I'm pretty sure there must be an easier way. I was looking up values from the 8-budget tab to try and determine which group column H values were from. The only complication I was having was that a project can be allocated to either a functional unit, or group so I need to have the "group" total as independent, not just as a sum of the functional unit totals. Like I said, these formulas work,
Is there a way to auto-populate all of the empty cells with the word "Need to Review" in a cell range (A1:A250)? Once any of the cells in this range is populated, whatever is inputted should house the cell.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIf you look at schedule.jpg you will see a how our work schedules are formatted.
Then if you look at schedule2.jpg, you will see what I wish to convert it to.
Now I'm looking for a way to search by the name of our employee (2 seperate sheets) and then by the time which corresponds to the first "1" in the chart under that name and the last "1" in the chart under that name.
So once I fill out our schedule.jpg, it will auto-populate the times on schedule2.jpg.
Is this even possible?
If necessary, I will be able to put both schedule and schedule 2 on one sheet.
On schedule.jpg time starts at 7:00 - Column C

I'm starting a dashboard, where on the front page I have two combo boxes on the left, and three empty fields to the right. I'd like the three fields to the right to auto-populate table-based values depending on the chosen criteria from BOTH fields (by store and month/date). I've attached a sample of what I've got so far. I've only provided three tables for this example, and I have a table with the same column/row titles for each metric and I have three different metrics I'd like to auto populate: COGs, Sales, and GM% or in the example, metric 1, metric 2, metric 3. No pattern in the table values, just wanted to populate the fields quickly. All fields are organized by store/month-date and I've set up a link to my combo boxes on a calculations tab.
View 2 Replies View Relatedi am trying to run excel file every one hour on the windows task scheduler. This excel file has macros and it open with

I have this excel workbook with VBA code that starts when the workbook is opened.
Every day at 12:00 the windows task scheduler opens the file (hidden). The problem is that my computer is not always turned on at 12:00 hence it would be better if I could store the file in the cloud and run task scheduler from there.
In an optimal world there also has to exist a dropbox connection.
Ive been looking at a bunch of examples, but everything that I have tried just gives me errors. what code to use to make a vbs script to run in windows task scheduler that will...
Open "J:GroupsBSHEETSSDANew EOD.xlsm"
Run the macro named "EODPrint"
Save the workbook
and close the workbook
Leaving excel open if other instances exist.
What I do know is how to set up a task in Task Scheduler and I have it set to open my Excel file: Workbook1.xlsm. This task is set to run at 7am each morning. Workbook1.xlsm has a bunch of different macros in it.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a userform which requires the user to enter the date a training course was completed. Initially I used DatePicker as I was running Excel 2010 and had that working, however the workbook I am creating will be used on about a dozen machines, all of which have different versions of Excel. To avoid needing calendar Add-ins to be downloaded and installed for this feature I decided to go the vba created calendar route. I am using one I found on this forum: [URL] .....
It works well for me using the example spreadsheet provided in the post but I am having some difficulty incorporating it into my code.

Sheet one has seperate logs for each item received in January and the reasons they were returned - so if you can imagine ( note / demonstrates column seperation) the following column headings: Date received / item description / approved within 1 day / returned for high risk.
On sheet 2: i've got a simplified data table which tells me that in January, there were 10 occurances of items approved within 1 day; and 8 occurances of items returned for high risk.
So sheet 2 looks like this:
01 Jan 2012 / 31 Jan 2012 / approved within 1 day / returned for high risk
I'm trying to get it so that any data input into sheet 1 for January will automatically update these columns in sheet 2.
This is what i've attempted to do:
what is the sum of the "1's" demonstrating occurances of "approved within 1 day" in sheet 1: Sheet1!J15:J179
if the date received in sheet 1 is between 1 Jan 2012 and 31 jan 2012 sheet 2: TODAY(Sheet1!D15:D179>Sheet2!A14
So at the moment i've got:
=SUMPRODUCT(Sheet1!J15:J179)*TODAY(Sheet1!D15:D179>Sheet2!A14

It seems Excel will only evaluate the first statement and ignore the Or statement, meaning when H5 is blank Halifax is checked off when I load the user form.
