I have made an extremely simple chart of bills in Excel. I want it to show each day how many days it is until the monthly due date of each bill. If next to the column of bill names I make a column filled in with single numbers to represent what date of the month each bill is due, can I make a SIMPLE formula to put in the next column that generates the number of days it is until the bill is due?
View 9 RepliesI am trying to make a bill of materials using excel. The material is 10' sticks of pipe. What I want to accomplish is have a column (column A) with the lengths used in inches and have it show me the total amount of pipe used keeping in mind that once you hit 120" you have to start a new stick of pipe.
For example: If I used 40 inches I have 80 inches left over... But if column A read (40", 90", 60") I need it to know that the 40" will be cut from one stick, the 90" will need to be cut from a new stick, and the 60" can be cut from the left over of the 40" cut.
I am trying to do parts forecasting.
My customer makes 6 different widgets, all of which use a different number of the same parts (tabA ~ tabZ)
For example, model A has the following:
1 x tabA
2 x tabB
0 x tabC
4 x tabD.
I have a matrix which shows how many of the different parts are in each model. The part number goes down the rows and the model being produced goes across the columns. So this goes from A10:G:21
Now, I have to do a forecast for the next year and I trying to figure out the best way to do it and have each months totals of each part. My forecast has the model numbers going down the rows and the months going across the columns. This is from A1:G7
The way I used to do it is have a line for every part and manually multiply the monthly total by each models per unit and it ends up being a formula that gets longer and longer.
January needs for tabA are (B2*B11)+(B$3*C11)+(B$4*D11) ...
February needs for tabB are (B2*B12)+(B3*C12)+(B4*D12)...
When they have 20 distinct models it gets difficult. Also, there may be mid-season changes to the bill of materials that make it difficult to change.
I'm trying to set up a water bill calculator and am having troubles. We have a base rate that we charge for everything under 4000 gals. After that we have an increasing tiered rate. I'm trying to make a form so we can calculate bills accordingly. I don't know how to create an "IF" scenario.
example
If "total usage" is greater than 4001 but less that 8000 multiply by $4.50 per 1000 gal
If "total usage" is greater than 8001 but less that 12000 multiply by $4.75 per 1000 gal
If "total usage" is greater than 12001 but less that 16000 multiply by $5.25 per 1000 gal
If "total usage" is greater than 16001 but less that 20000 multiply by $5.50 per 1000 gal
If "total usage" is greater than 20001 and over multiply by $5.75 per 1000 gal
Is there an easy way to do this?
create a multi level BOM in excel:
i have a formula
A=a+b+c+B
B=a+d+e
if i select A, i need excel to give 2a+b+c+d+e (and that should be in another sheet.
also i may take 50% of A +50% of B the resulting formula must appear.
i attached an exemple file.
I use CAD software that generates Bills Of Material. I cut & paste these to an Excel template that has column headers in row 3, for example:
U3 = Item name
V3 = Manufacturer
W3 = Reference_item_name
X3 = Reference_item_ID
Starting from row 4, I would like to add the content of columns V, W and X to column U, separated by comma's. No superfluous comma's should be added when columns are empty. It would be nice to have a macro that uses the row 3 column names, so it still works if someone changes the column order.
I am trying to create user form for make bill format for super market example if enter in text box the item name etc. then add data in to excel sheet with excel formulas and if customer buy more then one item when enter another item name in to text box it's need to go with same bill number and when search with bill number it's need show all carrying with that bill number and we can print bill format paper.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to create Bill of material from single table. I need to select multiple parameters, to expend it till the lowest level, so I will try to explain:
I have one table (ODBC) and there's all data we need. Parent number col A, Item number col B and quantity col C. First level I select main Item number A1234 (this is only thing that I should choose, everything else should be automatically), I get table with all items that are parent A1234 (let's say 10 items). Now I need to look again one level lower in same table for items that have Parent item in list of those 10 items listed earlier (let's say 30 items) and multiply their quantities with quantity of their Parent Item (total qty could be in column D). Then one level lower for items with parent items in those 30 and so on and so on. So when I choose main Item I would like to get table like below (take notice that real table has over a 100.000 items, but I want to show only Bill of material for the main item till the lowest level).
Parent Item
Item
QTY
Total QTY
A1234

I'm flexible and ok to use VBA, SQL, Excel functions, multiple tables (how to select multiple parameters??)
In the attached sheet, I have logged my gas energy consumption (kWh) from 2006 to 2012. I want to analyse my relative consumption over time, on a monthly basis.
However, the bills have been generated by different suppliers for irregular periods (eg. 10-May-2006 to 24-Jul-2006, or 23-Feb-2010 to 6-Mar-2010). So, how can I re-tool my sheet to arrive at rough figures that can be allocated against each month?
Or, if there is no dependability about that method, formulae which allow for effective comparison over time? Let's say, daily?
Below is the partial copied text of a Multi Level BOM. I am trying to hide or unhide the rows with 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and greater number of dots. The dots indicate the level of BOM.
Would a macro make the task more automated?
When a date is entered e.g 1/27/2007 The bill payment dates should all be automatically calculated under the “Date” column. Rules for the date
Rule1. e.g. 1 Month—the date should be 1 month after the date entered (as shown by the simple example 1/27/2007 one month is 2/27/2007 in the sheet)
Rule2 if the date entered is the last day of the month, the calculated date should also be the last day of the month provided it is a working day.
E.g 1/31/2007 one month is 2/28/2007. (provided 2/28 is working day)
2/28/2007 one month is 4/30/2007 (provided 4/30 is working day)
Rule3 If the calculated date based on rule1 and rule2 is a non-working day, the date is pushed back by 1 till it becomes a working day. e.g 1/27/2007 two month is 3/27/2007 if 3/27/2007 is Saturday it becomes 3/28/2007 which is a Sunday, another non-working day. So the output should be 3/29/2007
Rule4, under rule3, the date cannot be pushed to the next month. Instead, we push the date forward. In the previous example assume 3/29, 3/30 and 3/31 are all public holidays, by rule3, it will be finally pushed to 4/1. But this becomes another month. So we push forward instead to 3/26 which is Friday. The output is 3/26/2007
Definition of working dates (Monday to Friday excluding the holidays listed in the sheet).........
How do I paste the first chart into the second chart but maintain the format of the second chart?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to plot various data on top of stock charts.
This data could be irregular in date: it could be weekly, or simply random.
To plot this data by itself requires a Scatter Chart.
From what I know so far, you CANNOT DO THIS.
However, I suspect this could be done if I build a Stock Chart from scratch using a Scatter Chart.
Error bars can be used to make the tails, however, I don't know how they built the body bar which has the characteristics of a bar (border, and interior.)
But since I don't really need those two characteristics, I just need a wider error bar line that is provided in the chart edit window. I'm guess through a macro, there are wider line widths assignable.
I know this has been discussed a number of times, but here is my problem
I have three charts in my workbook. I want to attach a macro so that when the chart is clicked it returns to Sheet - Home. I have using the following:
worksheets("Home").activate. But after I protect each chart and the workbook, and save and exit. When I reload the Workbook it has forgotten the assigned macros and nothing happens.
I am looking for a creative way to display a pie chart within a data point marker of a line chart.
My database has 3 value columns, Type1, Type2 and the Total (Type1 + Type2)
these are recorded per day (Date, in Column A)
I have a line chart that displays the total by date, but I want to find a way to display the percentage split of a particular day by type.
I was thinking to load the chart image into the Data point marker, but i don't think that is the best way as the data is updated daily and I would have to do it each day for a few line charts.
The other way I was thinking about was to have a generic Pie chat in the Line chart (Maybe in a corner) and the pie would update depending on way date series was selected or Mouseover'd)
the way that I am approaching it at the movement (Not the best way and by far not the coolest way. Is to have a list of all the dates in a column next to the Line chart and using some VBA, what ever date is selected in the column the pie chart displays the corresponding data. But eh challenge is that when there is alot of dates, I am going to be scrolling up and down.
I am using Excel 2010, but I cant not use the slicer's as the other users do not have 2010, they have 2007.
I have a spreadsheet created in Excel 2003 (which is what we use at work, unfortunately).
My employees periodically take a test to ensure they have certain items memorized (or are making progress to that end). The spreadsheet rows show all 46 of my employees, and their test scores. The columns are the dates that the tests are administered. I can create a line graph based on the chart data, and interpolate these data with no problems.
The problem is that there are 46 employees! 46 lines on the same graph make for a very cluttered, hard to understand visual. I want to simplify the view by "filtering out" some of the data.
I have an additional column in my spreadsheet for each employee's work area (Area 1, Area 2, etc), and another column with data based on first letter of last name (the values here could be "A-G", "H-M", "N-S" and "T-Z", for example). I figure i could filter my line graph based on these two columns. For example, somehow select just Area 1, and reduce the number of lines on the graph to 16. Or better yet, Choose "Area 2" AND "A-M" and end up with 7 employees (and therefore 7 lines on the graph).
Here's what i have tried:
1) Select the work area column, and use the Filter, which created a drop-down list at the column heading. When i use this drop-down list, i can easily filter the data in the worksheet by Work Area, but this is not reflected in the line graph, which still shows all 46 lines. The problem was that i forgot that i had set the Calculation Options to "Manual". Setting this to "Automatic" (or leaving it on Manual and pressing F9) solved the problem, as the chart now updates when i use the filters. Calculation options are under the "Formula" tab in 2007, or in Tools -> Options -> [either calculation or formula, i forget what it's called] in 2003.
2) Create several separate line graphs in several separate sheets. I wouldn't want to assign someone else the task of maintaining a spreadsheet of such inefficient design.
I have created a population pyramid and want to add another chart on the secondary axis which I can do. The part which I seem not to be able to complete is getting the line chart secondary axis to read from the primary y axis. It seems to add a new axis, even when I delete this the line chart does not read correctly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow can I add missing values to the axis in a pivot chart line chart? I have a numerical X-axis with values such as 0,1,5,8,14, etc. I have another set of Y values that correspond to the X values. If this was an XY-scatter plot I'd be able to plot X vs. Y and connect the dots for "gaps" in the X values. Since it's a pivot chart I cannot use an XY-scatter plot, I can only use a line chart. The line chart doesn't give me the ability to add the "missing" values, so it gives the impression that my data is more closely packed than it is. The data source is external to my spreadsheet, so I cannot add the values before creating the pivot table/chart.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to combine data from multiple worksheets and make a chart. I have about 200 keywords in every worksheet (about 50), and some of them repeat themselves through worksheets and some don't. For every keyword, I have an associated value in the next column that I want to portray over time (each worksheet is for a different period).
So what I need to figure out is how to be able to pick any 10 keywords from the worksheets and put them in a line chart where I can see the associated value for each period for every worksheet so I can compare my keywords' efficiency. The tricky part is that some worksheets do not contain the keyword and other worksheets contain the keyword in a different cell than the previous wsheet.
I would like combine (overlay) a bubble chart with a connected point scatter chart. I understand that, without VBA, this is not possible. However, I understand that, by using VBA, the markers of a scatter chart can be configured as circles with their size proportional to values in a specified column. This pseudo-bubble chart can then easily be combined with a connected point scatter chart.
My question is: does anyone have any VBA code to share that shows how to configure a scatter chart as the type of pseudo-bubble chart described above.
I am trying to overlay a line chart on top of a stacked column chart. The stacked column chart is a chart where the x axis is dates and the y axis is amount. The line chart is a projected amount that I will reach in few years; the x axis is the date while the y axis is an amount. I can get a chart that has a line and stacked columns, but ever time, the dates get messed up. The line has an extremely wide date range while the columns only have about a month of data.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to display only the current month and the past 11 months in a Line Chart in Excel? So if I was to print Jan 2008 Excel graph, it would only display Feb 2007 - Jan 2008 data charting.

My question is regarding changing properties in a chart without activating it. My current example is with adding data labels, but there are many other instances I could use this information in. Here is my current code:
VB: ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(2).ApplyDataLabels
However, I was hoping to replace it with something like this:
VB: Sheets("Dashboard").ChartObjects("Chart 1").SeriesCollection(2).ApplyDataLabels
I get the "Object doesn't support this property/method" error. Is there a way to do this? It just seems inefficient to have to activate the chart in order to make changes.

View 3 Replies View Related I have created a pie chart showing top 10 best selling categories. However, on this pie chart, I want %age of overall sales to be shown.
At the moment say I put in the following
Catalogue 1 100
Catalogue 2 98
Catalogue 3 92
Catalogue 4 85
Catalogue 5 84
Catalogue 6 75
[Code]....
I add Data Labels and select the percentages. This shows at Cat 1 having 12.5% of the sales (100 of 800 sales), Cat 2 having 12.25%, and so on..... However, what you don't see is the following data:
Catalogue 11 60
Catalogue 12 58
Catalogue 13 57
Catalogue 14 57
Catalogue 15 56
So based on 1,088 sales, Cat 1 at 100 is actually only 9.19% of TOTAL sales.
I understand what is happening, the chart is giving the percentage based on the data inputted into the chart.
I did consider adding an 11th category to the chart, which was the total of Catalogues 11-15. Whilst this does give a more accurate percentage figure (as now all sales have been inputted), it makes the chart look ****
Is there a way of either adding the 11th category, and then "hiding" it, so that the chart doesn't display it, but uses it's value to calculate Catalogues 1-10s percentage?
BTW: The reason I ask is that I could be dealing with anywhere from 30 to over 100 catalogues. So it's not ideal showing the others in 1 chart.
I have a pareto chart(Bar & Cumulative Line Chart) that I would like to have the line orginate at x = 0 & y = 0 without changing the position of the other points on the line chart.
Basically this is for better visual appearance. When I add a 0 to the table, it skews the alignment of the line chart with the corresponding bar chart.
I would like to combine / overlay a bubble chart and scatter chart with straight connectors.
I understand that, without VBA, it is not possible to combine a bubble chart with a scatter chart.
Unfortunately, I am a VBA newbie, and so I cannot write my own code (though I can usually adapt code to my specific environment).
My question is: does anyone have VBA code to share that will convert a scatter chart series (x,y data in 2 columns) to a bubble-style chart (bubble radius in 3rd column)?
Attached is the sample data worksheet. Chart 1 is XY type chart using Seconds (2nd column of sample sheet as x-axis from 42510 to 42530). How do I change it to Line chart using Time (1st column of sample sheet as the X-axis) retaining same data from 42510 to 42530 on both primary and secondary axis?. And how do I again change it back to XY chart?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a chart with 3 data series. The series are located in columns A, B and C respectively. Series I is a general number anywhere from 0 to 100,000. Series 2 is also a number, but is is devided by series 1. So, if series 1 was 100,000 then series two would be 25,000/100,000 which is 0.25. Series three will always be numerator of series 2 or 25,000 in this example. The numerator, or the 25,000 will never change, so, in my example, series three will be a straight line across the chart because it is always 25,000.
In my example, the .25 is plotted on the left value axes, and series one is plotted on the right value acccess (secondary axis). Series three is just a line in the middle.
My problem is that sometimes the line, series 3, doesn't match the values in both the right and left values axes. So, if series one is 48,000, then series two would be 48,000/48,000 = 1, and series three would be 48000 - the straight line. The third series should be a line touching the 48,000 on the right and the number 1 on the left. It does touch the 48000 on the left, but is below the number 1 on the left.
