Categorizing And Sorting Data
Jul 3, 2009
Every week I export a payroll report from my payroll provider (sample attached). The report is sorted by employee name. I need this report to be categorized by department and show a subtotal for each department. The payroll provider does not provide a means to put departments in the system.
I'd like to find a way to automate this as much as possible. The final report has to have a column that reflects each employee's department and the report must be sorted by dept with a subtotal for each dept. I tried to do this using a second worksheet that lists each employee and the dept they work in and linking it to the payroll summary using =IF; that obviously did not work.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how this can be accomplished? The process would need to be repeated for many clients each week, so I'd like to keep it as simple as possible.

I have one column of data which I need to split into two. Those values that are bold need to migrate to column B. Have some difficulty in phrasing the question properly.
Original:
A
10
0
0
2
4
Desired output:
A B
0 10
2 0
0 0
2 0
0 4
* note a few formatting issues here:
1. instead of bold and not bold, they are in green or in purple
2. 0 stands for an empty cell in my data set (I tried to fill the empty cells with zeros, but they somehow inherit the colors, i.e. some zeros are green and some zeros are purple; guess that wouldn't be a problem since the desired output they'll all be zeros anyway?)

I want to categorize the # of seats into buckets (1-5, 6-10, 11-20, 21-50, 51-100, 101-250, 251-500 and 500+).
So if the number of seats is 19, than the bucket would be 11-20.
Is there an easier equation than IF(OR?

I am working with an aging report where data is formatted in column. In the last column I would like to assign a value based on criteria from the adjacent columns (ex: If balance > $10,000 then value = "Hold").
My idea was that I would asign variable to the column, start a for next loop, and insert the criteria in an if then else loop. Is this the best way to go about it, should I be using case select, and how do best assign the variable to column so that I can loop down the entire report.
Here's an example of what I'm working with
Balance
Current
90

I'm currently working on a process to recategorise products for a distribution company to give a category based on successful sales transactions.
Product Code
Category
Month 1
Month 2
[Code].....
This isnt the actual data in case you're wondering I'm doing this with 32k lines.
So, what I want to have is categories based on sales transactions, labelled with letters. So, cat A is sales in three consecutive and top X when total of three month consecutive sales, cat B being above X number of transactions in three months not already categorised by cat A. There is a Cat C, and various others which I can do myself, but i dont know how to make the category A work.
I'm using Excel 2007.

I'm using Excel 2010 and I applied a Data Filter to a simple table. I then messed around with the drop downs in each column, sorting the data by different criteria. After doing this, is there a simple way to get the table to revert back to its original order/form?

I am trying to create a "Master Sheet" where I enter in the column data and after I have entered my data for each row, I can select the button which toggles the macro to run. I have it built to build new sheets as new clients are obtained. My problem is after I have a sheet that has client's data I cannot get new data to add itself below the data that is already there. I want each client's sheet to keep adding rows as more data comes in. My current macro is :

I need to have cell data on sheet 1 to populate cells / rows on sheet 2 when the data is sorted on Sheet 1.
So let me explain: I have workloads on each row in Sheet 1. Column A has a list of people that I assign to each workload. After assigning a name in Column A to each row, I sort Column A by the user to print out only their workloads.
Currently, we have a paper worksheet where they manually write in their workload. I have replicated this worksheet on Sheet 2 and was wondering if I could use the data in Sheet 1 after being sorted by user, to populate the worksheet on Sheet 2 ?

I have five columns of data A to E. In each row there can be data in either 2 3,4 or 5 of the columns. What I want to do is essentially condense the data. So in columns, say, G,H,I J,K if there is data in column A then It goes into column g, if not it asks if there is any data in column b and so on. Then for H it does the same but one on. I have attached an example to show what I would like to happen.

I am encountering numerous problems compiling a macro to sort some pretty messy data. Hoping some of you could take a look and offer some suggestions....
The Data I need sorting is shown in the 'DATARAW' worksheet, this comes in every day and shows positions for each traded period. Usually 48 periods which I have highlighted although the data download could somtimes consist of 46 or 50 periods.
Sheet 1 (DATA RAW) contains data which I download daily.
Sheet 2 (Data Sort) is how I need it to look after sorted (I only need the data in DATARAW replacing, not another worksheet creating).
So for example:
Where column A = SP8 and the adjacent column B = 1 I would need:
All values which = ECN to concatenate the value in B to the reference in column B directly adjacent to the value next to it, until the folowing rows are presented:
So for instance the first value reported would be 131964, second 131979 etc... until the following text is shown in the rows below
IDD
CAT
ACE
ACT
ACE
ACT
When these appear I need the entire rows to be deleted.
Then basically the same for the next period where SP8 appears in column A and 2 appears in Column B.
also, the final result should contain no formulas so it can be referenced by lookups etc... also, all numeric colums should be stored as number so excel doesn't get confused.
This will basically repeat itself until the end of the file showing the same split as aove but with ZZZ as a footer. Which I also need to delete. :-S
IDD
CAT
ACE
ACT
ACE
ACT
ZZZ
Rows containing the values below also need deleting.
AAA
NOH
DSI
AED
I've used colours in the attachment but the actual file doesn't have any.

I am trying to create a macro where users can rearange data in a table. I used the macro recorder to sort the data in colmn C in descending order and this is the code that I got:
VB:
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("By Client").Sort.SortFields.Clear
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("By Client").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range( _
"C3:C176"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlDescending, DataOption:= _
xlSortNormal
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("By Client").Sort
[Code]...
This works for the table as it is but the range may change as more rows are added to the table. I want it to start at row three as the first two rows are headers but in future tables the bottom row may not be 176. I dont want to include all rows as row 177 contains totals that I dont want to be included in the sort. what I should put as the range so that this macro will work regardless of how many rows are in the table?

I have A spreadsheet.
The spreadsheet contains 8 worksheets, of which I am only concerned with 7 as the 8th merely presents a graph.
The first 6 worksheets all contain raw data exported from BMC Remedy indicating the names of users who logged incidents to have their passwords reset or their AD Accounts unlocked over a 6 month period, hence 6 worksheets (per month basis).
The 7th worksheet contains raw data from another application known as FIM (A MS based interface which allows users to reset their own passwords) indicating all users who are registered to utilize this functionality.
The goal of my exercise is to consolidate the data and sort it to such an extent where I can ascertain which users phoned the service desk to log an incident for a password reset, even though they are registered to do it themselves via FIM ... I have been going through the list manually and it took me 10 solid hours to go through 265 ... ... ... ... I have 3'900 to go through!

I have an issue with some data that I need to sort into several columns. Basically, I have a column that has data listed in each cell like this; A 567 T 1 D3. What I want to be able to do is sort that data into several columns. I am not sure how to do this at all. I have attached my data to be looked at. I have already started the process but manually, and I don't feel like having to do this manually as this is very time consuming considering I am trying to sort the data into ~1927 rows and 5 columns.

I need to data sort several rows of a worksheet, followed by a different selection of rows, followed by another selection, etc, etc. The first selection is done by highlighting the rows and then following the data sort menu. \
However, if I try to highlight a second selection and use the repeat command, excel repeats the action on the first selection, not the second. As a result, I have to use the data sort menu again. There must be a repeat option which acts on the new selection.

I need help with either a formula or macro for sorting data into specific columns. I need the entries under the headings Ar,Bj... to be sorted into the correct columns. To add to the problem, the data may not be exactly the same as the heading.
Attached is an simple example of a spreadsheet where the top is the original and the bottom is what I need the final outcome to be. The data is pasted from a different spreadsheet and will be changing each time.

I'm looking for a opinion on what might be the best way to organize some data for sorting later.
I work for a company and we have a lot of equipment. I have a spreadsheet with each piece of equipment in a row. Column A has the equipment name with all the following columns having info about the equipment. One example would be voltage, some equipment runs at 120v and some runs at 208v, some runs either or and some runs at other odd ball voltages, although this is rare. I am trying to determine what the best way to enter data like this would be. Would I be better off entering one column labeled voltage and filling in the voltage, but this becomes problematic when a piece of equipment can run multiple voltages. The other though is to do multiple columns, one labeled 120v, one 208v, one 480v or whatever and go from there. Than put a "X" or Yes or something in the columns that apply.
I have this same scenario for multiple variables like connectors, hardware accessories and things like that. I am trying to think this through before entering all my data of what could be the negative effects of this.
Would it be possible/make sense to do a radio box?
My end result is hopefully to be able to say I want a piece of equipment that meets multiple scenarios like runs 120v, this accessory and this connector. Ideally setting up some sort of easy sort method in my column headers.

I've attached the spreadsheet I want to use. As you can see there are three sets of "bootcamper name" and "time" columns
I wanted to know how I can sort by name or time if I were fill in data that started from A7 and B7 all the way down to A43 and B43 then restarts at C7 and D7 all the way down to let's sat C30 and D30
If I wanted to list all the data alphabetically ( or by time ) from A7 and B7 all the way down to C30 and D30, how can I do that?

I have a continuously growing list of data that I need to sort onto another sheet automatically. The sorting data is always in column A but sometimes is not always in the same format; however the sorting data is always the first 6 digits of the data in the cell. When i add the new data to the first sheet I would like the data to be automatically sorted onto the second sheet with 1 row in between each group of data.

Unsure how to start this off, any help would be great.
I have a spreadsheet with raw data in it, and am looking for a way to sort the raw data into separate sheets within excel using a Macro / VBA.
Here are the different columns of data I would like to copy into a different sheet.
Man Ord No.
Product No.
Operation Description
There is a Work Centre column I would like to use this column as a way to select the different rows of data.
So if there are five different rows of data for ACT#01 in the Work Centre column I would like it to copy the rows of data, delete all the columns that are not needed that’s all of them except for the above three, then add three new columns below.
Add a column called “Run Time
Add a column called “Resrce Name”
Add a column called “Available”
Work Centre will become the name of the sheet in Excel
The titles of the columns will have to be added in also, via the macro.
See the example excel file that I have started to make by hand, this is just one part of the process that am looking are automating there are other parts as well but just getting started for now.
