Multiple Table, Lookups And Validation

Mar 31, 2009

I'm having is with different Standards there are different names for the beam sizes - so i need validation in a single cell over mulitple tables. Also i then need to perform the lookup function ( or maybe this isn't the correct way) over the mulitple tables.

The attached spreadsheet will illustrate this better.
I am not too familiar with the advanced excel functions, but should be able to easily grasp these with an example or some guidance.

Use Lookups To Change A Value In The Lookup Table

Dec 11, 2009

I have a table which contains information about stock, item description, price, barcode, stock qty etc.

I have used lookups to make an invoice so I can sell the product and print a receipt etc. I want to be able to take away the amount sold off the specific product that was found using the barcode and a lookup and take that amount from the stock qty column in the lookup table.

Is there a way in which this can be done? If so how?

I have included an example of the invoice and the lookup table that I want the stock to be taken from.

Lookups With Multiple Inputs

Aug 19, 2009

I have a spreadsheet with a medium-sized data set, and I need to look up values from the large table, and thin the table down to only the relevant values.

To arrive at each unique value, I will have to match 3 input cells to the first 3 cells of the data table, then copy values from across that specific line to the appropriate cells of my smaller table. I really don't need to sum or do any math in this step, its just a copy from the master table to the smaller table, the math will come later.

I think I'm attaching the file (remember-first post) so hopefully it will help with what I'm trying to accomplish. Hopefully this isn't a big deal, but I've been pulling my hair out on this all day and I just can't find a solution anywhere that really matches up to this.

Get A Count From Multiple Lookups

Jul 11, 2006

On sheet1 I have a column with multiple names. I need a function that can
look up all those names from column B of sheet2, and then count the occurance
of a value in column H of sheet2. Here's the example:

Sheet1 (note that some rows are blank, and some names may appear >1 time):

Helen Back

Cyndi Lou Who

Cyndi Lou Who

Sam Spade

Sheet2 (names only appear once):
col Bcol H
Cyndi Lou WhoR2
Dan DangerR1
Dou LuvaR3
Hal BrookR2
Helen BackR1
Joe MamaR2
Lou DuvaR2
Mai TaiR2
Roberta FlackR3
Ron PopeilR2
Sam SpadeR2
Will NotR2
Yodan/a

I need a formula that can do lookup sheet1's names in col B of sheet2,
then give me a count of all values "<>R1" in col H. If names are repeated in
sheet1, I do want to include the multiple occurences in my count.

Multiple Lookups In Single Cell

Jun 13, 2014

I am looking for creating a dynamic meeting log/calendar for my team. There's a couple of elements to my questions below:

I have a log with columns such as "Meeting Date", "Client", "Attendee" and have also set up month calendars on separate tabs which automatically update the dates according to a "Year" toggle using Janoffset, Feboffset, etc.

What I would like to do is have these calendars automatically populate a cell beneath each date with any meetings on that day. The client name and then a space then the attendee in brackets would be sufficient and with each meeting having its own line in the cell).

I have gotten a Vlookup working but have run into two snags: 1) where there is more than one meeting on a single day 2) I can only return one piece of information in the cell or otherwise have it blank, I can't have the client name AND attendee.

Is there any way to lookup all of that information in the one cell or is this just a pipe dream?

I have attached my workbook which contains my workings so far and in the first cell of Jan shown the "ideal" format. I'd like the data in.

Creating Contact List With Dropdowns / Lookups For Multiple Offices

Apr 4, 2013

I've attached my .xlsx file for easier understanding.

What I want to do is segment out a contact list by "market area" and "department" and pull the corresponding data with those labels from the Contact List tab into the main tab when validated by the dropdowns.

1.) The Market Area dropdown represents different offices.
2.) The Department dropdown represents departments within each office.

What I want the user to be able to do is to select the 2 dropdowns at the top and view an entire listing of the roster of those departments based on how they are labeled on the Contact List tab. I'm still a relative newbie to vlookup/hlookup so I've tried using them and encountered issues with it returning more than one value or being difficult to fill down the next series of values, etc. I simply want it to return the entire set of employees that fit the identifying dropdowns.

Data Validation From Table (Non-VB)

Aug 24, 2009

I'm building a workbook that has a tab for each department (sales, admin, tech, etc.) w/i a project. I also have an inputs and instructions tab where I have all of my lists and background info hidden.

Essentially, on each tab, the user will build a team for the project using drop down lists. The lists reference data on the inputs tab. This data includes a list of all of the titles in the company, as well as which department they belong to. I want the validation to be structured such that the sales tab drop downs only see sales titles, admin only sees admin titles, etc. I also need it to be dynamic in its drop down inclusions so that when I add/subtract titles, I don't have to reset the validation for new cell references. Below is an example of the what the reference data looks like.

Input Tab:

Col A --- Col B
Dept --- Title
Sales --- Rep
Sales --- Sr. Rep
Admin --- VP
Admin --- SVP
Sales --- Closer
Tech --- Analyst
Tech --- Developer

Pivot Table In Place Of Data Validation?

Jun 5, 2014

I'm trying to create a table with drop down options for each cell (a different set of options for each column). Normally I'd use data validation, but I need to use Excel Services with this document, and that doesn't support data validation. I've seen mentions of using pivot tables to accomplish the same thing, but I can't find an example that works for my situation. I have eight or so column headers, and need a fairly large number of rows, all with the dropdown option. Is there a way to do this?

Combining Multiple Cells In Multiple Worksheets In Multiple Workbooks Into One Table

Jan 6, 2009

I'm currently doing a survey using an excel workbook that contains multiple questions across multiple worksheets using radio buttons linked to certain cells.

I have around 400 workbooks coming back to me, so what i want to do is take specific values from across many worksheets within each workbook and combine them into a large master table in a seperate workbook.

I've tried using VBA, but not being very proficient at it i've hit a brick wall with that, so i'm hoping that there is an easier way to do it than what i'm currently pursuing.

Data Validation List Based On A Table That Can Change?

Jan 11, 2013

I am building an Excel file that will be used to track information and at the core of it all is a list of people from different offices where the number of people per office can change and/or a person leaves the company and is replaced by another. I'll simply:

Column A Column B
Office Employee
Hamilton Emp 1
Hamilton Emp 2
Hamilton Emp 3
Toronto Emp 4
Toronto Emp 5
Toronto Emp 6
Toronto Emp 7
Toronto Emp 8
Waterloo Emp 9
Waterloo Emp 10

This will be all on Worksheet 'Info'. I have a Worksheet for each Office and named them accordingly. On each worksheet I want to use Data Validation on a column, we will call it 'ChosenOne', set it as 'List' and have the Source pull all the employee names that belong to that office and use them as a selection

ex: Hamilton Worksheet, 'ChosenOne' would show Emp 1, Emp 2, and Emp 3 in the list.

If Emp 3 changed offices to Waterloo 6 months from now I would like to change A4 from Hamilton to Waterloo and the formula would not have to be changed and the next time someone selects 'ChosenOne' it would only show Emp 1 and Emp 2.

Of course this means on the Waterloo Worksheet, 'ChosenOne' would show Emp 3, Emp 9, Emp 10 now.

So basically I am trying to not specify a specific named range for each office and am hoping there is a way to poll information from a Table (or any other tool that can simplify this).

I would be ok with something like:

Column A Column B
Office Employee
Hamilton Emp 1, Emp2, Emp 3
Toronto Emp 4, Emp 5, Emp 6, Emp 7, Emp 8
Waterloo Emp 9, Emp 10

and just move Emp 3 from B2 to B4 but I don't know if a list can be created from multiple items in a single cell seperated by a , or ; or :.

Sum Of Lookups

Mar 12, 2007

How can I conditionally total based on a Lookup?

e.g.
Column A shows the item code.
Column B shows the age of stock items as 1, 2 or 3 (years).
Column C has the cost of the stock items.
I want to total the costs for stock items (column C) according to age, so that the totals at the bottom would look something like:
Total stock value for year 1: $14,537.10
Total stock value for year 2: $7,657.70
Total stock value for year 3: $1,773.00

Using Lookups & IF Queries Together?

Dec 28, 2012

I'm currently working on a side project for work that I believe will save many man hours as at the moment we're using paper and calculators!!! I'm scheduling buys. I've worked out formulas and formats to show how much we should buy and how they should be split (for example for UK purchases we buy x amount and split it 10% 90%). However, the dates of delivery are different. See below:

PORT L'poolPORT HKPORT Portsmouth
1.113-Aug-1206-Aug-1230-Jul-12
1.210-Sep-1203-Sep-1227-Aug-12
2.103-Sep-1227-Aug-1220-Aug-12
2.201-Oct-1224-Sep-1217-Sep-12
3.124-Sep-1217-Sep-1210-Sep-12
3.222-Oct-1215-Oct-1208-Oct-12

Campaign 1 first buy (1.1) I know that my product is sailing from port HK. Therefore I want it that in the 'delivery date' cell, it returns 6/aug/12 (that's the first lot of 10%, and underneath it returns 3/sep/12) which the remaining 90%...2.2).

However, both the campaign number AND port options are variable (using a data validation drop down list). In effect meaning if I choose campaign 2 instead of campaign one, it'll return the dates 27/aug and 24 sep....if I then change the port to Portsmouth, the dates will be 20 aug and 17 sep.

I've attached a quick view of the schedule I've created. The yellow cells are where I want the dates to be returned.

Lookups In Matricies

Mar 3, 2007

I'm trying to use a state transition matrix in Excel. I randomly generate a
percentage and want to lookup the value in a corresponding table where this value would fall if we were to sum across the row. For example, the first randomly generated value is 13.5% and we are starting in state 6. Therefore, I want a formula that looks in row 6 (starting state) and determines which column (1-6) has the value 13.5% if you sum the values across (in this case the answer is 5). Then 5 becomes the new starting state and so on. Is there a formula or combination of formulas in Excel that can carry out this complex function?

State transition matrix
123456
185.00%10.50%3.10%0.74%0.66%0.00%
28.90%79.00%9.20%1.70%1.20%0.00%

Sum Using Lookups And Match

May 22, 2007

I have a master table that has a list of Product Names in column A and the associated product rollup names in column B.

Next, I have a data table that has a list of company names, Product Names (the names are all included in the master list of Product Names), Transaction Type (Sale, Cancel) and Value.

Lastly, I have a data summary template that I built where I want to be able to calculate total values based on the data table and the product rollup from the master table.

I would like to build formulas into the summary template where it looks at the Product Name column from the data table and finds the associated Product Rollup from the master table and then sums all the values for Transaction Type Sale and then sums up all the values for Transaction Type Cancel. The end result would be a Sales Value for Product Rollup 1, a Sales Value for Product Rollup 2, a Cancel Value for Product Rollup 1, a Cancel Value for Product Rollup 2, etc.

Conditional If's And Lookups

May 3, 2008

Here what I want to do.

I have 2 columns A and C.

The A column displays the winning teams every week and column C displays the losing teams each week.

our league has 2 divisions. Now during the regular season schedule we go head to head against our own division and against the other division.

What I would like to do is keep track of win loss record against each division and against the others.

So for exampls if the Cardianls win against the Angels the Cardinals would be in column A and the Angels in column C. The Angels are in our division. (So are the Braves, White Sox, A's). And if the Cardinals beat the Yankees, the Cardinals are again in the A column and the Yankees are in the C column. In the other division are Blue Jays, Mets, Red Sox and Cubs. From that I would like to see the result of NL 1-0 and AL 1-0.

Let me know if you need more info.

I can't figure it out. And I am sure it is dead easy. In my defense I have been in bed ill for a week, and my brain isn't firing on all cylinders.
