Sorting By Index And Matching Formula
Jul 7, 2009
I'm attempting to sort a list of containers and their corresponding quantities (A24:B28 in the attached spreadsheet) by using a combination of an index and match formula (cells A31:A35) and a large formula (cells B31:B35) in order to have the container with the largest quantity (summed in cells B24:B28) appear below in cells A31:A35 and the corresponding quantities in cells B24:B28.
My current index and match formula works fine until I have the same quantities of different containers as I have replicated on the attached spreadsheet. When this is the case, the formula returns only one of the various container types. How do I edit the formula to allow for multiple containers with the same quantities?

I've got large set of data(Column E) for dates from 2007 to 2013(Column B). Here dates are in chronological order.(Attachement) Now I want to match the data in to dates in Column H. Here dates are in random order. I used =INDEX(E3:E40582; MATCH(H3;B3:B40582; 0)). But it doesn't work.

I'm trying to create a formula in cell f13 of my attached spreadsheet "Sample 1" that will search the 2nd attached spreadsheet "Sample 2" and return the correct serial number based on both the matching PO # (located in cell E10 on Sample Sheet 1 and in Column 5 on Sample Sheet 2) and Product # (cell A13 on my Sample Sheet 1). My current formula is not returning the correct result and I'm not sure why.

INDEX($D$19:$D$22,MATCH((LARGE($E$19:$E$22,1)),$E$19:$E$22,0))
I use this formula to give me a "name" associated with the largest number in a list. But I can't get it to work when I use it on a win/loss number such as
"7-1". It won't read it.

I have inventory on an excel sheet with over 1500+ items. There are number of columns including: product id, product code, description, price, headline, path etc. I am uploading this to my online store I am creating. And, I have a lot of duplicate items so I can place them in different sections of the store by editing their path. However, these duplicate items in the excel sheet only have the product id, and not the description, price, and all the other cells. Thus, I need a forumla that will find matching product id's and fill in blank cells with their description, price, etc. so it will match its partner completely .......

I am trying to 'stagger sort' multiple columns, but am having some difficulties.Ex.
Say A and B are lists of part no and C is data corresponding to column B. I have:
A B C
1 2 .
2 3 ,
4 4 ;
5 7 '
8 9 "
I want:
A B C
1 _ _
2 2 .
_ 3 ,
4 4 ;
5 _ _
_ 7 '
8 _ _
_ 9 "
(the _ are just supposed to be empty place holders, without them I have formatting issues)
Is there a 'quick' way to sort them this way?I am attaching the actual file that I am working with.

The scenario is as follows:
Each row describes a physical object. Each object has several columns for various physical characteristics. Each object is in one of several numbered bins (1, 2, 3, ...). One column on the end combines the rest of the characteristics into one line {=B2&C2&D2...}
Here's what I would like to happen:
I would like one last column to be a "new bin number" for each object. If the combined characteristics column of a given object is unique in the list, I want "bin new" to not change. If the combined characteristics column of a given object is not unique, but the matching object has the same value for the original bin number as the object in question, then "bin new" again does not change. If, however, there are matching objects in other bins, I need "bin new" for that object to return the lowest "old bin" value of all of the matching objects. Consider the simple example:
mVBbUpP.png
Link: [URL] .....
From there, I can sort the list by the "new" bin column, and that would preserve the existing list, except matching objects would get bumped up to the earliest instance of that object occurring in the list. In essence, my final sorted list needs to keep the original bin groups together, except in the case of matches where the matched objects in higher bin groups get placed with their lower bin group counterparts. This "new bin" scheme is the clearest way that I see that can accomplish this.
My attempt at a solution:
xls file: binsort.xls
I thought of using arrays. For the example above, I would highlight G2 through G10 and input the following formula:
{=Min(if($E$2:$E$10=E2,$B$2:$B$10))}
and then hit ctrl+shift+enter. The issue is that the =E2 part does not iterate throughout, so it is always comparing the combined values in the 2nd row with itself, and thus returning "1" for every value in the "bin new" column. You can see this in the .xls file provided: column F is what I am trying to reproduce via the function, but column G is what I end up with instead.

I have a database with 6 columns in play (there are actually other columns but they are not relevant). I'll call the columns A through F. I would like to be able to match certain counterpart rows together, do a sort placing the counterpart rows adjacent to one another, and then count how many pairs I have. (Some rows will have no counterparts.)
Here is a micro-illustration of the database:
______A______B______C______D________E_____F
R1___01-03___54____959____nsneakr___24____yes
R2___01-04___67____454____adidaht____53____yes
R3___01-10___42____344____calb3wd___11____no
R4___01-19___67____454____adidaht____53____no
R5___01-25___54____959____nsneakr___24____yes
R6___02-02___54____959____nsneakr___24____no
R7___02-14___54____959____nsneakr___24____no
I basically need to devise a formula or script that pairs together two rows that fit the following criteria:
1) The rows are identical in Columns B, C, D, and E.
2) The rows are not identical in Column F (i.e., one half of the pair should have "yes" and the other half should have "no")
3) The rows are as close together as possible according to the date sequence in Column A. For example, Row 1 should pair with Row 6, and Row 5 should pair with Row 7. Row 1 should not pair with Row 7, and Row 5 should not pair with Row 6. **This criterion seems tricky because R5 and R6 would technically fit the requirement for pairing, were it not for the fact that R1 comes earlier in the sequence.**

I'm trying to have a cell where I return the minimum value of column A but only when column B equals 380 and when C equals 80. I know how to do it if I select my range manually to be the range including all the 380's and 80's but I'd like to select the entire data set to look through so that I can easily change the criteria to say finding the minimum in Column A when B equals 420 and C equals 40.

I have attached a sample from aspeadsheet I am working on. The option reply sheet has '1' entered if the student has opted to take this course. On the other subject sheets I would like the names who have opted for that subject to appear. Stuidents can opted for multiple subjects. I have tried Match and Index functions but it is difficult as students can opt for more than one.

I have a spreadsheet schedule that pulls quantities from another spreadsheet's cells. if the part number of the reference row matches the schedule cell's part number (row), and the date of the reference cell row is 2 workdays after that of the schedule cell's column, the quantity is put in the right place in the schedule. that part works. the problem I have is that sometimes there is more than one quantity with the same part number and date (due to the parts belonging to different jobs). when this is the case, only one of the quantities is picked up by the schedule. i want the schedule cells to sum the quantities of the reference file with matching criteria. i also don't want to have to change the reference file at all in order to do this. below is the function that works (besides summing the duplicates). the part after the " " is what i would need to alter.
HXS is the reference file where D is the part number column, I is the date column, and 5 is the index column referencing the quantity.
C is the part number column in the schedule
K is the date row in the schedule ....

how to return the top 5 results in a set of data.
In a nutshell, I have data that needs to be sorted but some intermediate to advanced (to me) excel formula needs to be used to sort the ranking properly. I've already used index, match and large but it does not suffice.

Problem we are having with sorting a table.
The table (A1:E10) was created by pulling data from another worksheet using INDEX and ARRAY formulas.
We inserted 6 columns to move the table over to G1:K10 (used column F to space the two tables).
We then duplicated the table: cell A1=G1, B1=H1, ...., E1=K1 and dragged the formulas down. We now have a duplicate table that we want to sort.
We choose CUSTOM SORT and choose 2 levels of sorting ... column A and column C.
PROBLEM: The ARRAY formulation evidently overrides the sort function because the table remains as it was when the sorting command is executed.
Is there a way to bring the data from table G1:K10 over to table A1:E10 in a manner that will allow sorting??

I would like to amend my macro w/ additional code that will allow me to view the value in column A, if a subject is chosen from list from columns D or E. Choosing a singal subject to view from row2,from column,D or E will cause the value in column A to not be seen if the subject does not correspond with the row the value is located. Is there a way to match values from corresponding/matching column values with the rows with values in columnA? And. allow if match found to display/list the value in the first empty cell in column A for match? I would also like the macro to reverse match for column A.
So if a single value is selected in column A for view, then all rows for which the value pertains to will also be shown, instead of just the single row with the value.
Here's an examplary make of the booklet.

I have the same report, one a monday snapshot, the other a daily comparison. I would like to index columns B, in both reports, to find the same part number and then reference the horizontal row and highlight increases in columns G thru AD. The comparison report looks identical but the column B numbers may not be in the same location. this is a report to show prosduction requirements and the increases throughout the week.

Excel 2010: I'm working with a sheet where I would like to get accurate results on the make and model of cars sold in a given week. The workbook contains several worksheets each representing weekly sales numbers for different vehicles.
The Make-Models tab has the lists used to create the drop-down selections.
The Sales tab allows one to create an ad hoc report on the total number of vehicles sold, by Make and Model. Cell B2 is named 'SelectedModel' and used in the formula found in column E, Total Sold.
Problem: When I select Honda, for example in B2 of the Sales worksheet then select Accord in cell B3 of the same. The results returned in E2, E3 and E4 are 2, 3 and 4, respectively, instead of 8, 3 and 7.
2 Honda Accords were sold on Monday and 6 on Tuesday of the same week. My formula is only returning the first matched value of 2 whereas I would like it to return 2+6, 8 for week 1. Same goes for other weeks.
Select any other make and model and notice the problem follows. I believe the error is due to incorrect usage of the formula or incorrect formula altogether.
IF(ISNA(INDEX(Week1!E:E,MATCH(SelectedModel,Week1!B:B,0))),0,
INDEX(Week1!E:E,MATCH(SelectedModel,Week1!B:B,0)))

I am trying to use a nested INDEX and MATCH array formula to return the value in column C when matching column A and column B, but with a few more criteria.
The range containing all the data
A
B
C
1
Cat 1
January 1, 2014
John
[Code] ..........
I am looking for the array formula to return the name of the person in column C who is in Cat 1 after the date in column B.
For example;
C7 should return "John" because B7 requests "January 15, 2014", which is after the value in B1
C8 should return "John" because B8 requests "February 15, 2014", which is after the value in B1
C9 should return "Andrew" because B9 requests "August 15, 2014", which is after the value in B4
The best try I had for the formula in C7 was
{(INDEX($A$1:$C$4,MATCH(1,($B$1:$B$4>=B7)*(A$1:$A$4=A7),0),3))}
This brings back "John" as desired in C7, but when copying down the table into C8 and C9 both C8 and C9 return Andrew.
I guess this is due to my ">=" condition in the Match formula and it is returning "Andrew" because "Andrew" is also after the date requested, but I cannot for the life of me work out how to get it to work.

I have a spreadsheet that has original data. I originally used the array formula after sorting. But my application is different now. I can not use the sort function or any macros so it has to be a function or filter. Been playing with this one for a while but cant figure it out. Please see file. Also the array wont work if there is a gap in the data. The data needs to be in the final list (green) in order and only one of each can show. Basically I want to show only one of each value or item and then find the sum of that value.

On Sheet1 I have a list of 32 people in column A (A1:A32) and on the same sheet in column B (B1:B32) is a 3 digit number representing a score. I have the 2 columns sorted together descending order based on column B scores.
On Sheet 2 in column A (A1:A32) I have the same 32 names in random order with associated information in columns B to K. I want to sort the names and associated information on Sheet 2 column A based on the order of the same names in Sheet 1 column A. Is there a formula to achieve this result?

At present the information is by style then colour break down and i want it excel to automatically calcuate the total per style number if possible
EXAMPLE:

The first sheet is called Sites and the second sheet is called Call Log-Jan-08
On the Call Log in cell A3 we put the division # and then we want the information to automatically fill out for the cells B3, C3 & D3. We want this information to come from the Sites list. In the sites list the information starts in A2 thru K2 (A1 thru K1 is the header info) and goes thru A645 thru K645.
I can't figure out how to get my Index formula to work.

I'm trying to sort a table as displayed in the image below. The table consisting of items in column A, here fruits, and a column E where totals over three month is displayed.
I have entered an array formula in column H where the total of each fruit is summed and then sorted in descending order. My problem is that whenever two fruits have equal value (here, apple and pear), Excel will not manage the display of both fruits, it will just display the first twice. The formula in column I is a simple SUMIFS.
It doesn't matter if Apple or Pear is displayed first, but I need both items to be displayed in column H.

I'm currently having a hard time creating a formula to verify if the contents of 2 cells match.
Example from Spreadsheet -
Column C: MATCH / NOT MATCH
Column D, Row 4: MSG
Column E, Row 4: SMSG
When I attempt to create a formula for Column C, it registers the "MSG" within "SMSG" and lists the result as "MATCH".

I have a spreadsheet where I have two different sheets; a summary sheet, and a more detailed sheet that lists out items on invoices.
The summary sheet shows invoice number, amount invoiced, and total paid against that invoice.
The detailed sheet goes into more details, and shows whats on the invoice, and any reasons for them not being paid.
I want a formula on the summary sheet that picks up the invoice number from the details sheet, and then brings through the figures. The details sheet may have more than one line for an invoice number, so the formula needs to be able to add up too.
I've tried a vlookup, but it doesnt seem to work, and I dont think it will do what I want.
