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.
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?
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 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
B1111

I'm flexible and ok to use VBA, SQL, Excel functions, multiple tables (how to select multiple parameters??)
I have a 2-column employee file. Column A has the employee id and column B has the manager's employee ID. The reporting layers can get pretty deep. In this example, there are 6 layers of reporting. For example, Employee id 1200 (which is not in column A) has 2 employees. One of them (1712) has several employees, one of whom (1680) has employees reporting to them and so on for several levels.
Is there a way in Excel (2003 or 2007) to summarize the reporting structure? For instance, I need to know all of the employees that report up through emp id 1712 - not just that report directly to 1712, but all those under 1712's tree.
I have the following function. the problem with this excel is i give it "C:" as directory, it search only one level of sub folders i.e it will search the filename in
C: est
C: est3
It does not go deeper. i.e it wont look in folder that is for example
C: estanotherlevel
C: est3anotherlevelmylevel3
How to modify my function so that it goes to the deepest folder. is there a way to do it?
Function GetFile(directory As String, filename As String)
Dim FSO As Object
Dim fldr As Object
Dim subfldr As Object
Dim file As Object
Dim fullname As String

I'm looking for a formula to pull the correct piece of data from one worksheet and display it in another. I have tried VLOOKUP, but it is only returning values from the first instance of my lookup value. Below I have included a sample of what the data from the first sheet looks like. My lookup value is entered on Sheet2 in cell A1. The formula I have used is as follows...
=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A2:D13,4,FALSE)
The result this would return for a value of 111111111 is 15, but I'm looking for one more level of depth in this lookup, by being able to pull not necessarily the cost of the first code, but of a specific code......
Been trying to figure out whats wrong with my formula. The 4th column doesn't seem to produce the intended result. I have attached here for reference.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSo our company gets Material Statements which basically state what chemicals and how much of said chemicals go into producing X item.
I need to figure out the percentage of MASS for each chemical.
So data might look like this:
Total Weight of product: 500 grams or mg, etc.
Sub-Item - Contact - 450 g
Material - Copper - 425 g
Substance - Nickel - .05 g
Substance - Copper - 422 g
Substance - Lead - .02 g
Material - PVC Insul - 5 g
Substance - Polysomethings - .5 g
Substance - Red Dye - .4 g
Substance - Plastic - 4.1 g
So basically the sub-item line is 450/500
first material line is 425/450
substance is .05/425
the substance lines use vlookup to find the material line to divide by. formula i'm using is below:
=IF(B2="Sub-Item",I2/$M$2,IF(B2="Material",I2/VLOOKUP("Sub-Item",$B$2:I2,8,FALSE),IF(B2="Substance",I2/VLOOKUP("Material",$B$2:I2,8,FALSE),"n/A")))
B2 is either sub-item/material/substance
Col I is the mass of that line
M2 is the total weight of the item
Formula works until you get to the Polysomething lines in the above example data. instead of taking the material weight from PVC Insul, it takes it from Copper.
I need to set up an excel sheet with dependent data validation that is multiple levels deep.
ie. Select value from dropdown list in Col A returns dependant list in Col B, select value from the list in Col B returns list in Col C etc.
Is this possible?
Also, is it possible to set multiple values to return the same list? ie in the drop down you have 4 items. Each returns a dependent list but items 1 and 3 both return the same dependent list. Just saves me making many copies of the same list with different names which isn't a huge issue.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem formatting a chart in Excel 2010. My chart has multi-level category axis labels, and I would like to have a vertical grid line separating each major group of categories. In Excel 2003, I could right-click on one of the gridlines and then specify the spacing I wanted between gridlines. In Excel 2010, as soon as I indicate that I want multi-level category axis labels, I get a vertical gridline between each category and I am unable to alter the spacing. If I deselect the multi-level axis label option, I can adjust the spacing between the vertical gridlines, but the axis multi-level label functionality is lost. Is there a way to fix this problem without having to resort to using the drawing tools or text boxes to achieve the desired results.

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 Replies View RelatedI 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?
I have a listbox with 8 columns. Multiselect is enabled, and it must stay this way. As part of my program, after the user presses a command button, I need to use the row indexes of the selected rows in order to copy the selected information into an array which is then placed in a different listbox, and then delete the items from the original list. Pseudocode of what I want to do:

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 RelatedIn 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?
I am trying to get a formula for material quantities
What I want to do is
If length is less than 3mts I require 2
If length is more than 3 meters than I require 3 and 1 more for every 3mts after that
e.g:
2mts = 2
3mts = 2
4mts = 3
6mts = 3
7mts = 4
9.1mts = 5 and so on
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).........

I have made an Excel illustration to explain what I would like to embark on.
I am not sure of the code, but if there is not an idea, I may see if I can find some idea of the code.
basically I want to be able to keep track of how much vinyl material I have left after each order.
The process would be - When I order a roll of vinyl material I would input the colour ordered and cm ordered by selecting from drop down lists in the 'Vinyl Tracker' sheet. When a customer makes an order, I would select an item, size and colour from drop down lists in the 'Orders' sheet. Depending on what size is selected in the 'Orders' sheet, I would then like Excel to automatically update column 'Cm Remaining' in the 'Vinyl Tracker' sheet, however using the smaller number in the relative size column from 'Item Sizes' sheet.
E.g. If we take the first order:
World Map
Medium
Black - (M)
This would then refer to cell M5 in the 'Item Sizes' sheet (as 43.35 is less than 90).
I would then like the number which is retrieved to be taken away from the relevant cell in the 'Cm Ordered' column, depending on what colour was chosen in the 'Orders' sheet.
To make matters a bit more complex, obviously when any of the numbers in the 'Cm Ordered' column in sheet 'Vinyl Tracker' is 0, I will re-order the same vinyl roll and insert it into the sheet as per usual. How can I make it so that any new orders will take away from the latest instance of the same coloured vinyl?

1.A Userform to add records into "Material Indent"tab.

I need to sort the material data based on the material rank but i can't use the 'sort/filter' function. Therefore, I used the VLOOPUP function. For some reason the vlookup formula is not working could you let me know what is the problem? see attchment.

I am at a total loss on how (if it is even possible) of how to do this. So what I have done is tryed to break down each step. If someone could even get me started in the right direction many of the steps are redundant and I could work on that part myself.
I am attempt to create system to match parts that are alike in a single project, so I can create a material ordering list. This is just one step in the process (the hardest one) I will take the returned data and use it further in the process to create the actual material list. I have 2 worksheet of Data "PartsNeeded" and "PartsAvailable" with a 3rd sheet "PartsFilled" as my report Sheet.
