Formulas To Distribute Ranked Items?
Jan 7, 2014
Our Favorite Gifts.xlsx
This is a simplification of what I really need. But say I have 5 people, and I have 5 gifts (A-E) Each person is in order by who gets first choice, second, etc. And each person has indicated from 1 - 5 which gift they like best. 1=most favorite 5=least favorite
I'm trying to create formulas to show who gets what. My actual spreadsheet has more people/items but is virtually the same thing.
In the attached example,the first person, Bill, gets first choice, then Mary, then Karl etc.
Bill would get Gift C. Mary would get gift A Karl would get Gift D because gift C and A are already taken.
The spreadsheet itself could be done differently if there's a easier/better way to get the data.

I been working on excel sheet that will distribute 200 items between the employees that are available to work. I've attached a copy of the workbook. First I need to look at the quantity of employees I have working that day. Second Distribute the items to each one of the employees. Third give the first employee the first piece. Fourth give the next available piece to the last person with a zero piece in their list.

I need to create variables that splits out a length of stay across years and enters the number of days in each of those years into separate year variables. Below are two sample cases:
CaseID StartDate EndDate
222 12/23/1988 01/01/1997
22112/25/1989 2/12/1990
After creating different variables for the different years, in this case: 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, I want to be able to pull out the number of days that goes into those years as separate variables.
Thus
caseID daysin1988 daysin1989 daysin1990 daysin1991 . . . . 1997
222 9 365.25 365.25 365.25 0
221 742
and so on

This is a spreadsheet I'm using for my fantasy basketball draft that by adding information into table C3:N15 will populate stats into team sheets and output average stats into table D20:L31 and then create a rotisserie style scoring table outputted into B36:M47.
What I want to do (and have tried to do in table B51:M62) is output this to create a sorted ranked by Approx Score without using macros or VBA. I also want to do this using Excel 2003 rather than 07 (I'd love to take advantage of the AVERAGEIF function but i figure compatibility is my first concern).
The issue I have run into is that tie scores are going to make it difficult, and utilizing a table w/ summed ranked will lend itself to that happening...a lot. How can I solve this?

1) List of 500 employees, each allocated an account number where the payroll should be applied, in cells N1 through to N500.
2) Account numbers contain many uniques, ie employees within same department / function
3) require a list of unique account numbers, ranked in ascending order with the budget value, in rows O510 through to Oxxx (depending on how many unique account numbers exist)
4) this happens for 4 companies over 20 spreadsheet tabs for each company for each type of employment cost (each tab has different account numbers)
I know I can do this by manually copying the account numbers to another tab, sort them, remove uniques and then copy the result back o the summary area, for sumif formula, but was hoping for something a little more 'automatic', as these spreadsheets will be provided to payroll staff in each company for completion.

I have 3 columns, A B C: Distribution Center, Sales, and Top Ranked. What I am trying to get is a Rank function in the Top Ranked column that looks for the highest value in the Sales column, but returns the Distribution Center associated with this Sales value instead of the actual value. I could get this done with some helper columns and a VLOOKUP, but the report is rather large and the VLOOKUP not only slows it down but also pushes the file size over the limit. Also, I will be using this for metrics other than Sales where I'll be looking for the highest and lowest figures, so if a Max or Min function works better, that would be fine. I just haven't been able to figure out how to have it return the associated data instead of the ranked data.

I am trying to rank a series of data. I have most of this figured out. However, the data that is being ranked is based on a sum of a range of cells. I have lines that are waiting for new information to be put in related to the values to be ranked and the value is reference a sum of blank cells currently since there is no data there and it is showing up as zero and therefore being ranked number 1 in my list. I basically want the ranking to rank the values 1-11 while putting all values that are zero to be put at the bottom of the ranking. Any way to do this without macros. I have been using the VLOOKUP and RANK functions for my ranking purposes.
I have tried using an if statement that made the cells #N/A if they were zero, however they remained at the top of my ranking.

I 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,

I'd like to create, in a single cell, what we call a "geochemical signature".
I have data that looks like this....
AreaID, Cu, Au, Pb, Zn, Sb
2, 5.1, .1, 0, 2.2, .2
3, 0, 0, .1, .2, 0
And I'd like to add a column onto the end of the table that returns a value like this...
AreaID, Cu, Au, Pb, Zn, Sb, Signature
2, 5.1, .1, 0, 2.2, .2, Cu Zn (Sb Au)
3, 0, 0, .1, .2, 0, (Zn Pb)
Such that a single cell has an ordered (ranked) list of the elements that relate to that AreaID. Also, any element with a value < 1 is returned in brackets, and elements that have a value of 0 are ignored.

I have created a Macro and would like to make it available to other members of my team. This Macro is to be used in various different workbooks - so it cannot be tied to a single specific workbook. I tried creating an Add-In, but I've learned that, even if I instruct my colleagues how to load the Add-In, they will not be able to see the Macro that is inside it. So what methods are recommended for distributing Macro's to other users?

I organize monthly audits of work completed by the team. Essentially we all audit each others work; but we cannot audit our own work.
I would like a formula that will evenly distribute the jobs for audit without passing a job back to someone that owns the job originally. e.g. Gareth cannot audit a job Gareth owns, but can audit Zach or Claire's jobs. The Excel sheet attached should make it easy to understand.
So far I have tried: =INDEX(A2:A24,RANDBETWEEN(2,24)) but this duplicates data and I cannot get it to evenly spread the jobs amongst the team.

Is there a tool that can make an Excel application behave like a “real” software? Meaning, the user will still be able to do what I planned for him to do with the file, BUT it will be very difficult for the more-than-average user to “crack” any password protections I have applied to the file? (Something like an MDE file in Access, perhaps?) The reason I am asking is because I have invested a lot of time and efforts into creating an application that I wish to sell to some of my clients, and don’t want them to easily find their way into the formulas and macros I have placed in the file.
The protection tool does not have to be an Excel tool, necessarily, but it should not require any programming skills (because I don’t have them. If there isn’t such a tool? My application contains User Forms (for input), a Database (with Auto Filters and formulas) and some Pivot Table reports. BTW, my application was created in Excel 2003 but should also be used by users with Excel 2007.

I'm trying to find a formula that would spread out a value amongst multiple cells along a bell curve. Say I have $x,xxx. I want to spread that amount out in a certain proportion, regardless of how many cells I'm spreading it throughout.
Say I have a $10,000 project. I want to be able to spread it out like a bell curve in the cells I choose. For instance, if it was a five month project it would be distributed as
January - $1,000
February - $2,500
March - $3,000
April - $2,500
May - $1,000
If I added another month it would change to
January - $833.33
February - $1,666.66
March - $2,500.00
April - $2,500.00
May - $1,666.66
June - $833.33
I already thought of manually adding percentages to each cell, but the formula needs to be dynamic.

I'm working on a project that will will have varying tasks & estimating the total duration to complete these tasks.
For example:
If estimating that the min-project will take 90 days & I have 17 tasks, how can I distribute the 90 days evenly amongst the 17 tasks?

I have searched and have not been able to find exactly what I need. I currently do this manually and it is taking too much time.
I start with a file (sheet1) that has data in column A for a location.
Column B has a unique 10 number (each location can have between 1 and 10000). Example:
Location,secnumb
1000001,10052950
1000001,10052960
1000002,10052980
1000002,10052990
1000002,10053000
1000002,10053010
1000002,10053020
1000004,10053530
1000004,10053540
1000004,10053550
I need to get this data into the following format for a mail merge:
Location,secnumb1,secnumb2,secnumb3,secnumb4,secnumb5
1000001,10052950,10052960
1000002,10052980,10052990,10053000,10053010,10053020
1000004,10053530,10053540,10053550
I was thinking I would set up a sheet2 with all the unique location codes, and then do a match between the location code on sheet 2 and sheet1 and use an offset function?
But I am way over my head when I work with vba.

I am currently tracking our company's service tasks in Excel and would like a formula or method that will take the total hours a task has been approved for and equally distribute the hours into columns under each month.
Column A = Resource
Column B = Task Owner
Column C = Task Name
Column D = Task Description
Column E = Approved Hours
Column F = Start Date
Column G = End Date
Column H = Jan 07
Column I = Feb 07
Column J = March 07 etc. etc.
I basically want to take the approved hours (Column E) and have those hours automatically calculated and filled into the month columns (Column H forward), as per the start and end date fields (Column F & G) so the hours are evenly distributed over each month.

I'm having some problems to find a way to distribute quantities from a known average price. Here's the Example:
My Client bought 100.000 Shares from a Stock, in various prices.
Qtty Price
10041,71
30041,61
70041,78
1.50041,72
4.40041,68
5.50041,75
10.00041,94
13.50041,70
64.00041,80
Then the client wants to distribute this trades for 7 different funds at the same average price.
Qtty Fund 1: 294
Qtty Fund 2: 541
Qtty Fund 3: 1.213
Qtty Fund 4: 13.370
Qtty Fund 5: 16.582
Qtty Fund 6: 28.002
Qtty Fund 7: 39.998
I'm sending an example attached.

I have a list of parts with quantities that i would like to distribute among several columns that represent cities, based on the number of parts in stock. For Example, if i have 5 parts and ten cities, i want it to put one part in the first five. In the case where theres more parts than cities i want it to loop back to the first city and add one and so on. I attached a sample spreadsheet.

I would like to distribute a workbook that makes use of the calendar control in a userform.
Trouble is.... Not all the end users have the control installed or even a copy of the mscal.osc file.
This workbook is going to be rolled out to a large number of users with varying levels of computer literacy. For this reason I would like to try to 'attach' the calendar control to the workbook OR somehow distribute the mscal.osc fil and automate the installation.

I am in need of an Excel Macro to help me create an address list by market. For simplicity sake I’ll set up a mini-example: I have an Excel document with a MASTER tab that lists the Market (Column A), a person’s name (Column B) and their Phone number (Column C). What I need to macro to do is read column A and make a new tab for each market in that column, then populate the name and phone fields accordingly.
A found one macro that was close, but it does not automatically make a new tab (I have to do that manually) and it does not refresh the sheet each time I open it, so when I run the macro again I get duplicate entries.
