Counting Unique Instances Of A Number

Feb 10, 2007

I found the following formula online while searching for how to count unique instances of a number in a list. The list may have blank cells or repeated numbers but this formula works. =SUMPRODUCT((A1:100<>"")/COUNTIF(A1:A100,A1:A100&""))

So my question is...can someone verbally explain just exactly what is going on? i.e. I don't understand the <>"" in the sumproduct argument or the &"" in the second argument of the countif.

Counting Number Of Different Instances

Dec 5, 2006

I would like to count the number of instances of different schedules shows in one department. For example for dept. 1, I would like to know how many different schedules are in that dept. I have 48 schedules and 60 departments (numbered 1-60). I would like to know how many "different schedules" dept 1 has and so on. I don't think the frequency function will work. Is there a way I can use sumproduct to get the result I'm looking for? The information is on a separate worksheet in colums (Col. A holds the dept and Col. B holds the relative schedule).

Counting The Number Of Instances Between Blanks Cells?

Mar 18, 2009

I like to think that I am pretty good on Excel 2003, can't stand 2007 but hey thats for another thread.

I can do most forumulas and write some pretty elaborate macros, but one thing I am trying to do has completely stumped me.

Each month I compile a Pivit table that shows by day if a product was in stock or out of stock, this is represented by a blank cell (in stock), "1" Out of stock.

All this is fine, but I want to be able to show the number of instances that a product was out of stock in any given month...

Count Unique Instances Of Date While Filtering Based Upon Date And ID Number

Aug 14, 2014

I have a list of ID# (Col A) and dates (Col B). The ID # of reference is Col (F) and today's date (Col G). I need to count how many future dates there are in the list (Col B) that are unique and in the future from today's date.

I'm still fairly new to all these formulas and functions which is why I'm not attempting this in VBA.

I've attached an example work book and I would like the result in H2.

Formula To Count Number Of Instances

Jan 29, 2007

I need a formula to count the number of times the same thing occurs in a particular column. i.e. tree 1, tree 2, tree 3. I just tried the countif function and it is returning "0". Not sure if that's because the data I am looking for is part number/part text. Does this make a difference? There are also spaces between the number and the text. Also, the range I am asking excel to look in is based on a concatenate formula.

Counting Unique ID's

Mar 26, 2009

I've got a list that's about 15,000 rows long. Column A has a date and column B has an alpha numeric ID. The list is sorted in order of oldest date at the top, most recent at the bottom. The range of dates is from 1/1/2007 through 3/23/2009. Both the same date and ID show up multiple time throughout the list.

I need to figure out how many unique ID's show up on the list in each given calendar month. I could manually break up the list into months, use an advanced filter and then run a count formula, but it seems like there must be an easier approach.

Counting Unique Occurrences

Mar 27, 2008

We've got a column of names. A single name might appear once or two hundred times. The column is over 25,000 lines long, so we don't want to have to count how many different users there are (besides the likelihood of doing it wrong!). Is there some way to make Excel count the number of unique entries in the list, ignoring multiple repetitions of the same name?

Counting Unique Ticket Ids

Nov 28, 2009

I have a data which contains the number of customers who have logged cases with us to find a solution. So the data looks like as shown below;

Case IDCategoryCountrySubject QuestionClosing Details2550EMEADenmarkHi Please help me with the follwing orders, ticket number is JN567786Contact the retail shop12550EMEABelgiumHi please note that the product KA12QT seems to be having hardware problems. the ticket number is JN567786.

Technical issue fixed, DCK JN56778612876APJAustraliaProblem with the music system, resolution required.
The ticket Id logged is JN782238
new CD provided to resolve1

What i need to do is find out the unique ticket ID (eg: JN782238) from all the description provided from column 'Subject Question' and 'Closing Details'. All the ticket numbers start from JN... , however it is very manual for to check every row has a ticket number. I have to do this for many sheets and the data contains atleast 20 to 25000 lines.

Inorder to find this unique ticket number i search through filter by giving the criteria as JN1 and keep doing untill i reach JN9. Once i filter through each of these criteria, i add a number "1" in the last column indicating that this row contains a ticket number.

After completing for all the rows, I add a pivot to check the final count of the the unique numbers, But again i need to remove the duplicates from these count, as there might be several descriptions with the same ticket Id (eg:JN789899). So i add field "Case ID" to the row area in pivot and count of these numbers in the 'Value area' (pivot). Then i look for case IDs with numbers more than 1. I f i find 2 or 3 for a particular case Id then i search this case id in the data and delete one of the count ('1') in the last column.
