I am using Excel to produce work orders and I need each one to have its own unique number. Much like an invoice or contract number, each time I open the file I would like Excel to generate a new number for that spreadsheet with a value of 1 more than the previous spreadsheet.
View 14 RepliesI am trying to create a spreadsheet that will automatically increase the work order number by 1. The cell will always be in the same place. The idea is that when the file is opened it populates the number. After being closed and reopened the number will be 1 higher than the previous.
The page will reused by various people to create and print work requests for my mechanics, I want it to assign the W/O automatically.
Here is a code for me to print the names in ascending order even if values are of same means it is showing one name only instead of the other name
means if values are A=1 B=2 C=3 D=4 E=2
it has to show like this A B E C D
But the result is coming like this A B B C D
Formula which i used
=OFFSET(B$6,MATCH(SMALL(C$6:C$18,ROW()-ROW(C$6)+1),C$6:C$18,0)-1,0)test.xls
Here i am attaching the sample file for your reference
See the attached file. I need month wise work order totals. for more details see the pivot table also
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet of 1000+ companies and I want to take a random sampling of 100 of them. I would assume this could be accomplished by auto-filling a numerical value to each line of data (which I did), then scrambling only the column with the numbers (which I can't figure out), and then selecting the entire text and resorting it to put the numbers back in order and then just work with the first 100 rows (which I can do, if I knew how to make the numbers random).
with a code to generate new sheet name and running number.
For example the name can be INF001 then follow by INF002, INF003 .... each time I run the code.
I wanted to generate 11 random numbers between 1 and 10, which added up to 100 every time I pressed F9...

Once the month and year is selected I want to import all work orders onto the calendar based first on the "Labor Name" found in the list of work tab, then assign each work order for that labor name to the respective date on the calendar for the month.

I have been playing around with some data and can't seem to get it the way I want it. I have played around with Pivot tables and grouping but I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish what I need in Excel. To better explain I have attached some test data of what I am trying to accomplish.
View 14 Replies View RelatedIt is data for a time study to compute labor hours. I have managed to group everything together per "work order" and "Employee ID". I am trying to sum up the labor hours by work order. I know it sounds simple but I do have another question. Once the total hours are set. Are they still available in the same format when put in a Pivot Table?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have these two woorkbooks. One serves as a register of warranty cards and the other as a template of a warranty card. For each new warranty card I need the register to generate automatically a new consecutive number. This new number should automatically be loaded in a specific cell in the template document after opening it (with a hyperlink or a button from the register, for instance), so that I don't need to mannually type the number in the template.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've managed to write a random number generator that produces multiple sets with no repeating numbers per a set.
Now, to step it up a notch, I'm trying to create an even distribution of the numbers generated which is where I could use a hand. Here's my current code:
Code:
Option Base 1
Sub RandomNumberStrings()
Dim rndno As String, strg As String, msg1 As String
Dim r1() As String, r2() As String
[Code]....
Equaling 500 numbers generated as intended, but my target is to get every number with an equal frequency.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIm am looking for a way of automatically sorting the data I have in column "C" (C2:C99 to be exact).
The data represents stock codes which are a mix of text and numbers, starting with 1 letter followed by numbers.
I would prefer something I can put in the sheet tab view code section, so that when any new data is added or altered it automatically sorts the stock codes in to alphabetical then numerical order
EG:
A10
A11
B13
B15
etc....
I have generated macro, all I want is when this macro runs on different work sheets it should automatically select the active range based upon column A and copy the formula in the inserted new column B, please see the macro which will make it clear. Basically whenever it is copying a value or a formula it should be for the active range.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a large amount of student demographic, course, and class data on an
Excel worksheet for an entire school district. The ethnic code for each
student is a single alpha character. I need to find a way to get a total for
each ethnic code in each course when filtering by each course.
Each column of data has a header and I am using the Auto-filter feature for
filtering. Is there a way that the COUNTIF function can be set up for each
ethnic code so that it will count from the filtered data? If not, is there
any other function, or nested functions, that will work?

I have is a spreadsheet for maintenance on various equipment around my work site. I have the cells that contain the dates of the last maintenance performed conditionally formatted that when it reaches 2 months time after that work, they will turn yellow and alert me that it is time to perform that maintenance again. What i would like to have is a seperate sheet in the workbook that is nothing but "Work Orders", in other words once the cell turns yellow, it will also appear on the seperate sheet. Then I could print that "Work Order" sheet that would only have the certain piece of equipment that needs to be maintained on it, where as the main sheet will have all my equipment. I dont know if i need a formula for this, if so then I have posted the question on the wrong board, or a macro.
Wondering if it is possible to generate a random 4 digit number based off an alphanumeric string?
Example;
Cell A1 has 123XVF1234
Cell A2 has 321AFW4321
In B1 I would like to have a 4-6 digit number that is generated based on the alphanumeric data in Cell A1 (and so on down the list). If that is possible, I would also need to be able to convert back the 4-6 digit number back to its original alphanumeric value
Example;
If B1 returns 643562 it would need to be able to be converted back to 123XVF1234
I am using office 2007 and here is the problem I am facing. I am using a formula and it is based on two columns data. The formula result is at C20:C2400, while the two data columns are at A20:A2400 and B20:B2400. I add one more row of data at A2401 and B2401, I expect the formula result would auto extend to C2401 but it doesn't, nothing happen.
I check that I need to turn on the auto extend check box in option, I check and it is already on.
=IF(OR(J4="",K4=""),"",NETWORKDAYS(J4,K4,Holidays!Z29:Z39)-1)
Above is the formula I am working with. I am inserting it into row 4 thru row 996 in a number of different columns. The auto fill function works great for this part of the formula….
=IF(OR(J4="",K4=""),"",NETWORKDAYS(J4,K4,Holidays!
However, this part Z29:Z39 I have to enter manually row by row until I can figure out a better way. Do you know an easier way?
To put this formula…
=IF(OR(J4="",K4=""),"",NETWORKDAYS(J4,K4,Holidays!Z29:Z39)-1)
Into any column row 4 thru row 996, without having to change Z29:Z39 for every row, since I cannot rely on autofill?
I need to generate 8 (random) numbers which should range between 0 to 80 and the sum of those generated 8 numbers should be 80.? How can I achieve this.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm creating an order form in excel. I would like to add a control there where when it's triggered, excel would automatically assign a number that hasn't been used before and save the file using that number. It's like an order number generator.
For example, let's assume I'm entering a purchase order in excel. After I'm done doing that, I click on the "SAVE" control button. This will assign the number following the last saved order and save the file in a location I specify in this format: filename POnumber.
I have a list of unique number. They are part numbers. For convenience for the user, they cannot be resorted. A list may look like this:
AAAA
BBBB
AAAA
AAAA
CCCC
(blank cell)
CCCC
What I would like is a formula that i can put in the adjacent cell that will result in the following:
AAAA 1
BBBB 1
AAAA 2
AAAA 3
CCCC 1
(blank cell)
CCCC 2
Essentially, the formula/solution will "know" that the third occurence in the list is actually the 3rd occurence, and so forth... I tried COUNTIF but that just gave me the total number of occurences
AAAA 3 wrong
BBBB 1
AAAA 3 wrong
AAAA 3
CCCC 2 wrong
(blank cell)
CCCC 2
We have list for entries that is shared among few people. In that list, we manually add number for the entry. So if I input 99 then, next person should add 100 and so on. I would like to automize this, so say If I use this, then no one else can use it in the mean time and then when number is input, it should disallow if same number is input and it should automatically enter the next number.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an upholstery business and I have created a workbook containing multiple sheets (proposal, invoice, sales order log, etc.. ) Following, I have saved it in Template format, which I open and save by order number somewhere else. The issue is, I don't know how to track what the last order number I used was....
Is there anything I can work using excel that will allow me to make that easier without having to go open a window and looking at the last order number after arranging the workbooks by name inside a folder?

I'm making a Excel 2013 spreadsheet that has formula in a column that auto enters a number 1-40 when something is entered to the left of that cell. There are 300 rows in the spreadsheet. I would like to make a drop down list in a column cell to the right that would delete that number in that cell from the drop down list. For example cell C1 has 39, that 39 then is deleted from the drop down list. C2 has 22 in it, click on the drop down list cell and it shows 1-40 less 39 and 22.
