I'm trying to prepare a Gantt chart and I'm unable to display the start of month date in the x axis. Currently I'm able to display each month by giving an interval of 31 days, but I'm not sure how to display the start of month in the chart. Tried to add a secondary horizontal axis,but the secondary axis is not intersecting with the y axis and the grid is not getting aligned properly.
View 1 Replieswhere i can fix the secondary value axis to start at 0 instead of starting from minimum value like usual?
like the min value of my value axis is -12, the secondary axis will follow suit, i. e 0% will start at -12. i want it to start at 0 instead.
to get this Break Even Analysis chart to start at zero.
I took one that looks the way I want it (on the left)
and tried to re-create it on the right....
the charting is starting at 1 and I need it to start at 0 like the one on the left does..... Not sure what needs to be changed to make the one on the right look just like the one on the left.
how to plot Multiple left Y axis display in Multiple draw line graph. Already I have created Right Y axis. I want to draw 4 Line graph in one graph 3 are Left Y axis and one is Right y axis.

Date Purcahses Total
30/01/09 10 10

On the 20th of each month, i want to create a macro that wipes out the historical data prior to 1st of that month. i.e. on Feb 20, i want to lose all the january rows.
I want to put "Jan" (as in January) in a cell on Sheet1 and in cell A1. In cell A2 I want to dispay the start of the month and in cell A3 the end. So if I change A1 to "Feb" or any other month it will display the correct start and end dates.
I then want to use either the month or the dates to do a SUMIF statement. It a simple one like -
=IF(C5="","",SUMIF(April!R:R,"="&C5,April!G:G))
But I don't want April in the formula as I just want to update the cell in A1 to read in the data for a different month. BTW, April is on another sheet along with a sheet for each month.
I have a PM (Preventive Maintenance) spreadsheet which tracks the progress on all our maintenance workorders providing a % of PM's complete each month. It has been manually updated each month, but I want to have Excel remember the percentage for each given month and record it in a seperate cell. I.E. D100 tells me PM compliance is 97% MTD for September, but when October 1 arrives I have to remember to take the number as it was on the last day of the month and record it somewhere else. I want to have excel automatically save the number (%) as it is on the last day of each month and keep it. I have used a simple IF function ( IF(C90>09/01/2007,D100,"") to get the cell to record the number during the active month but I lose it as soon as the next month starts.
Is there any way to have excel recognize the new month then save that number in another cell when the next month begins?
I am trying to format my x-axis to list only the labels that have corresponding data points, but at the same time maintain appropriate number spacing. For example, My x-axis range is 0-90; however, I only want tick marks at 0, 5, 13, 40, 85.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a set of data with values and dates (call the dates 'raw dates'). I have added 3 columns with formulae in them as follows:
Year =YEAR('raw date')
Month =TEXT('raw date',"mmm")
Day ='raw date', formatted as "d".
I have a pivot chart with three Axis Fields. In order they are: Year, Month and Day. This is so that the chart itself has three layers of x-axis names (year, month and day) rather than a whole load of dates which looks messy.
I would like to show the values as a running total "in" the raw dates of the data.
When I show the values as "Running Total in" 'raw dates', I get a load of #NAs in the pivot table because the raw dates are not in the Axis Fields. If I select Running totals "in" the Days (which is included in the pivot table setup), I get running totals over each month, starting at zero on the first date in each month. I need to have the running total run over the course of the whole data set, not mini running totals in each month.
When I choose only the 'raw dates' in the axis fields (i.e. taking out Year, Month and Day), running total works fine. The only thing is that I lose the nice looking x-axis. Adding the raw dates to the other 3 Axis Fields also doesn't work - it doesn't even try to give a running total at all, just the original values.
how to achieve a running total without sacrificing the x-axis?
I need a formula to calculate a date 6 months forward from the start date. However, in the calculated 6th month, I need it to the day before the start date.
ie: start date: 26/12/13 -- End date: 25/06/14
is possible to trigger a macro at the start of every month. I have a fairly simple bit of VBA, but just want it to execute on the 1st of every new month.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have about 80,000 dates. What I need to do is to place an x by the date if it falls inbetween January. For example, I have start Date in A1 and End date in B1. If the start date was 10/20/2013 and the end date was 6/11/2014 then that woub give me an "x" because it went through January. If the start date was 11/23/2013 and the end date was 1/1/2014 that would give me an "x" because it fell in January but if I had 8/4/2013 as a start date and 12/29/2013 then that would be blank. Hope that I made myself clear enough.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm creating a spreadsheet for anaesthesia monitoring. I have a table that calculates the time every 5 minutes (i.e. start time + 5 mins) for 3.5 hours and columns for heart rate, respiratory rate and drugs which is then plotted on a scatter graph. I've forced the major x-axis major unit to be 5 minutes.
Everything works fine for the first few values (1.JPG) then after 24 values it decides it wants to go crazy with the x-axis and display 24 hours (2.jpg) making everything unreadable. I would set the minimum manually but it obviously that will change depending on when the case starts. I can upload the file but it has some macros for other sections.
Two questions:
1) How do make values on x-axis as words? E.g. apples, oranges, etc.
2) Is it possible to have the numbers on x-axis in descending order? If I can figure out 1), I can do this as well, but it would be nice to know if it is possible to have the numbers on x-axis in descending order.
I am working with the Ganntt chart and horizontal bar charts but can't seem to figure out a way to force the X-Axis to behave properly.
In Excel 2007, I am trying to get the X-Axis to show major units of Months. However, in my chart options I can only change the Y-Axis to be Date/Monthly.
Changing my data layout (from the below) to be a vertical format produces the same problem, just in the other direction.
My data looks as follows:
System
Blocker
Production
Migrataion
Retired
Sys1
1/1/2012
780
Sys2
1/1/2012
400
60
90
Sys3
2/1/2013
30
5
1
The Blocker column is formatted as "No Fill" in order to cover a portion of the time-scale.
My X-Axis displays as random dates throughout the period and all of my data displays properly in terms of the scale on the grid.
What is NOT working is that the dates shown on the X-Axis really need to be based on a Monthly scale instead of the randomly selected dates Excel is using.

I can't seem to find the right combination of options to make that happen or force a scale on the X-Axis.
I am working on a formula by it is repeatedly failing.
Based on input 1 which is the month name, I am looking for a formula to identify the position across columns as the starting cell and then the value in input 2 needs to be repeated 12 times from there.
Example:
Input 1 is Apr-14
Input 2 is 51.8
I have columns with month names starting Apr-13 to Mar-15
Since the input 1 is Apr-14, the formula should identify the appropriate column named as Apr-14 and from there it should copy the value (input 2 ) 51.8 for the next 12 cells which is until Mar-15. I have attaches the examples for your quick reference.
I have created a program to display an Alert based on a Date. I have this program enlcosed in the Workbook Open event. I need to popout this alert everyday, everytime EXCEL starts on a computer.
I had something in my mind though - I thought of plonking this program into the Workbook Open event of the Personal.xls workbook for a computer and thereby I could have achieved my requirement of popping out this alert everytime when Excel starts. However, there is one problem here. Every 3 to 5 days the dates in the workbook are going to change and I do not want the user to tamper with Personal.xls on his / her computer.
So I gave it a second thought. I created a shortcut of this workbook and placed it in the XLSTART folder for a computer and now the problem is - it opens the workbook itself rather than popping out the alert whenever Excel starts on the computer. So this would not work too.
Is there any other way I can make the alert pop out everytime I start Excel on a computer ?

What I Want Return the MAX Value of the cells in a Column labeled start date for the rows where a Column labeled Agent =X and a Column labeled Mission Type = Y
In plain English with an example In another Cell I want to display the most recent start date for a mission of a particular type for an agent
Using the following table as an example I would like to determine the last time Agent 007 was on a Mission of type a
The Expected result should be 6/23/2008
If the same was asked for agent 99 the result would be 4/20/2008
And again for 66 the results would be 5/2/2008
If we then changed the mission type to b the results would be
007 6/23/2010
66 5/2/2010
99 4/25/2010
Here are the formulas i have tried already the results for these were incorrect and exactly the same 6/23/2012 the formula seems to be ignoring the first value and just calculating the last column to the latest date

I've just started working on an FTE calculator and wish to populate a 12 month calendar with FTE depending on the start and finshed dates.
FTE Calculator non nursing.xlsx
I've attached the file. In Column D the user would select the month the staff start and in the Column E the month the staff will finish. I would like the fte that is calculated in Column Z then to populate in the 12 columns AB:AM (Jul to Jun) with corresponding month start and finish.
I want to automate the Display labels in my Charts using VBA Coding…
I would need to use this small code in Charts with different Scales as some of the Scales in my Data are in a very large Range close to Trillions so its not possible to have these as the Primary-Y-Axis Scale and therefore I would need to use the in-built Display label option which Excel provides..
However, I always prefer to have the scale in the Range of Thousands so the Max I can have in the Scale can be 10,000 so if there is any Number more than that or the Scale is going above than I would prefer that this gets auto-calculated to Multiply with the remainder and show appropriate Scaling.
For Ex:In this example My largest Number is 4500000000 which is 100 M..So I would want the scale to show 4500 and the Display label as X Millions..
So The Display Label would be different for different Ranges but the Max Scale preffered would be 10,000.
