Lookup Invoice Numbers From A Raw Data File With ~5,000 Line Items On A Daily Basis
Apr 16, 2009
I have a spreadsheet, in which I need to lookup invoice numbers from a raw data file with ~5,000 line items on a daily basis. The lookup is based on two criteria searches (1) search product type (2) search product make. In this example, I have 4 product types:
1 – car
2 – truck
3 – boat
4 – motorcycle
For this example I want to search invoices; (1) first search for cars only (2) search for product make. In my attached example, the first item (cell E2) would return invoice number 7147875-FRD from the raw data file. The second item (cell E3) would return invoice number 7147877-NSN.
I this, We are distributing work on 6 hrs/day basis. What I need is, I need to automate the work distribution on daily basis and should show the hrs also. and the projected date of completion. (yellow highlighted cells are where the formulas are needed)
How to go about fixing my spreadsheet so I am not having to manually update it each day..here is my forumla I am currently using...=(AVERAGE($D$2:$AH$2)-C5)*AI5...basically i need the cell below in D2 to change as every day a new day rolls off..for example the following day I need this formula to be =(AVERAGE($E$2:$AH$2)-C5)*AI5 ....so just that day changes.....do I need to use an If/then statement? if so how?
While I was working my daily expense I come up with this issue. I do eat outside while I am on work. Sometimes I go to Pizza, sometime I go to mexican etc etc. The common between them is word FOOD. I would like to modify the formula suggested by Ron Coderre
In cell b5 I have =today() which automatically updates the date on a daily basis. What I would like to happen is for each day there is a new line is automatically inserted with the date so:
Sat26/04/2008gone off sickFri25/04/2008Thu24/04/2008Wed23/04/2008Tue22/04/2008Mon21/04/2008Sun20/04/2008Sat19/04/2008Fri18/04/2008days holidayThu17/04/2008Wed16/04/2008Tue15/04/2008
I would also like any information on each of the line to move down when the new line is inserted. I am not really that good with macros or VBA but feel that is the only option to solving this problem. Also would everything still update even if the file wasn't opened for lets say the weekend. So it is constantly rolling.
I'm creating an log to track the total number of hours an employee works in one day and calculate regular and overtime hours worked based on the following criteria: overtime will be >8 hours in one day and >40 hours in one week.
Right now I have it 'mostly' figured out, but under certain conditions, it calculates more than 8 hours in one day for straight time. Is there a way to set a maximum value for the straight time cell and have the difference be added to the overtime cell?
I am trying to build a sheet to track deliveries into the company I work for.
We book loads to come in at set times for production, I am wanting a sheet which I can enter the due time and the actual time of the the different companies and then produce a report in graph format to see which are the worst at late or early deliveries.
I have a spreadsheet to record profit or loss on a daily basis. The figure for each day can therefore be positive, negative or zero.
I want to add a column to display the total for the last 7 days (NOT the last 7 calendar days), in which either a profit or a loss was recorded (so excluding any cell that is zero).
I would prefer to add (insert), the column for each day as it comes and the range would obviously vary if the new day's figure was not zero.
I have a file that gives some statistical data to my co-workers every 15 minutes. A common question I get is "How does that compare to last week?" Then I have to open the file from 7 days ago, find the data from the same time interval, and subtract it from this week's number in my head. I'd like to have excel do this for me.
I know how to get data from an external file. The problem is, these files are named with a date on the end of the file name. So tomorrow, the static formula won't work anymore (or rather, it will give data for a file from 8 days ago, instead of 7). I'd like to excel to use today's date, find the file from 7 days ago, and get the data from that file to compare to the current file.
Here's what I've done so far:
Code: ThisDate = Range("C1").Value 'the cell with todays date in it ThisDateName = Format$(ThisDate, "yyyy-mm-dd") 'now formatted the way I need it ThisDate7 = Range("G1").Value 'the cell with the date 7 days ago ThisDateName7 = Format$(ThisDate, "yyyy-mm-dd") 'formatted correctly ThisDate14 = Range("G2").Value 'the cell with the date 14 days ago ThisDateName14 = Format$(ThisDate, "yyyy-mm-dd") 'you know, in case of a holiday 7 days ago
I have no clue what to do next. I want Excel to: Use "ThisDateName7" to find the file with the name "pph_tracker_[ThisDateName7].xlsm"Get data from a cell in that file (say, C15)Subtract it from the data in the same cell (C15) in today's file (this week - last week)Give me the result in today's file (say in cell C20)Do that again for cells D15, E15, and so on (result in D20, E20, etc)
I assume I can figure out the rest from there. Can I use the variable names in an actual formula in cell C20? Something like:
=C15 - '[pph_tracker_{ThisDateName7}.xlsm]Sheet1'!C15 or even =C15 - '[pph_tracker_{The Date in Cell $G$1}.xlsm]Sheet1'!C15 which would require no macros at all!
I have the data to import / read in a pdf, in a doc, or in an Excel worksheet whichever is easier to use. I need to import the data, parse it into the correct cells for that row and then repeat the import until the end of the file. Not all the cells are in each group of data to import, so those cells will be null for that row. Some of the data for one cell may be in up to 14 lines in the data file. I have be concatenating these data rows into one cell. There are 48,000 lines in the file to import or I would do this manually. I am assuming that doing this in VBA would be the most efficient method.
See the attached excel table. I need the cell E4 to keep adding the values typed in the cell D4 on daily basis.The cumulative shouldn't be changed if there is no value in the cell D4. E4 should accumulate and keep the totals typed in D4...
I want to track daily sales of a shop with the tenders (Cash, Master, Visa)seperated.
Everyday there will be a file ctp.dbf from a folder YYYYMMDD (previous day date) which contains sales details.
I tried to use sumif commands and everything is working fine. everytime i have to open book.xls and from it I do a files>Open to open the ctp.dbf for the calculation to be done. is there a way where by i can open 1 file and everthing i calculated properly?
Also this book.xls can only do for 1 day how can i go about having the daily sales detail of the month (look something like sales summary.xls) or even year in 1 excel file?
attached is book.xls and sales summary.xls for reference.
I'm trying to create a lookup process for my address part of my invoice, I want it so when I enter the first address it automatically looks up and enters the rest of the information (Title, Name etc.) I've been trying to do this with vlookup and I can't seem to get it to work. I'm just getting #Ref! returned.
My address 'database' (list of addresses etc) are on a seperate sheet to the Invoice.
I would like to have a macro which adds all the numbers in a column. The problem is that sometimes there are less sometimes there are more numbers. What I would like is, that the macro to sum the numbers right under the last cell which contains a number.
I am trying to work on Sheet 2(Details per person). I want to be able to display all items in a row that matches the 2 criteria (Skype ID and Date) and the items are based from Master Raw file which is in another sheet. I would like to just use index and match.
I have a invoice that I use, thanks to royUK is working pretty good now. I'm not sure if there is a code I can add too refresh my invoice counter. When I clear the page it moves up one number,now that I have two invoices in the same book it does not refresh the invoice number in the other invoice. royUk worked on this a lot yesterday and had some great ideas in cleaning it up. On my one day invoice he was able too give me a warning when I ran out of cells to input my marcos, but not sure how too do it in my two day because it has two pages. Their are so many helpful people here, I wish I could take them all too dinner.
Is there a way to create incremental invoice numbers via a formula in excel every time it opens up?
I would like it to appear in a specific box "e5" on the spread sheet I have read a lot of info but I am lost I have no idea what vb is or how about editing it.
I would like to automatically update a 'yearly' database file with info from a file that is changed on a daily basis.
The daily file that i use has info like date, truck number, delivery stops, weight.
the database file has the similar headings.
at the end of each day this daily file is saved. I would like to have the info that is entered into the daily file automatically plugged into the yearly database file into the next available group of cells with respect to the salesperson.
This is kind of a generalization but i'm hoping to just get pointed in the right direction. If something like this involves vba then it will be beyond my ability and i'll have to do it manually, which is fine
I would like to be able to copy an invoice from a web page, paste it into Excel and then run a macro on it that will strip away all unwanted lines. That much I have gotten fine. Obviously, part of this invoice is numbers (Qty, Unit Cost, Total Cost, etc.) but when my macro is complete these numbers are all stored as text.
What steps would I need to add to convert these numbers to numbers? I would like for this to all happen within the macro. This completed spreadsheet would then be linked to a table in Access where calculations will need to be performed.
I currently have a project i am working on based on a invoice system and in my case it is to do with Van rentals. what i am looking to do is create a macro so that when the user clicks the order van button, it brings them to the order page and automatically creates an invoice number which is automatically added to the invoice database along with the customers details and the date of the invoice in a different sheet.
i have been browsing various forums and tutorial and have come across an a piece of code that is incrementing numbers each time the button is clicked. I can add the first set of details to the invoice database however i am unable to create a new row which copies the formulas and just change the invoice number as it is incremented - it just copies the same number
Now i am a complete novice in using VB and i have knowledge to an extent using excel. Is it possible to do that?
Sub test() ' ' test Macro Sheets("Invoice List").Visible = True Sheets("Customer Menu").Select ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False Sheets("Customer Van Order Form").Visible = True ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-12 Sheets("Invoice List").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='Customer Van Order Form'!R[7]C[6]:R[7]C[7]" ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='Customer Van Order Form'!R[7]C[6]" Range("B2").Select.............
If I have 2 excel files. One with data about electronic equipment and one with more general counting data, i will explain..
For example the electronic equipment excel file contains data about notebooks, desktops, epads etcetera and also prices and how old they are etcetera. The excel file also has a column for serial number, so for example a notebook serial number looks like this: 23N34ERT3 and an epad SN looks like 25OKE445EE. IF i filter the SN on text and begins with: ??N then it will show me only notebook data(because the N stands for notebook). Same if I only want the Epad I just filter on ??OK, so i get all the epad data.
now for the general counting data file, in this file i actually want to put data which i get from the other electronic equipment file. For example i want this data to be retrieved:
a. total number of rows of notebooks from the electronic equipment file b. total number of rows of epads from the electronic equipment file c. how many rows there are for notebook that are 0 - 1 years old(in electronic equipment file there will be a column called product_Years so in this column you have data like: 1,4,12,3) + that are from model: A from the electronic equipment file d.how many rows there are for notebook that are 2-3 years old + are from model:A from the electronic equipment file and then going on for 3-4 years model:SD etc...... e. in the electronic equipment file there are prices for each model, i also want to calculate the prices for each rows which i get here in the list above.. These rows must be calculated with prices from electronic equipment file
Is there any easier way than constant filtering and copy pasting the data?
I have several thousands lines of data....much of the data is the same, 2-5 rows per person, but at the last two columns is different numbers/totals....I'd like to get those all into their own column so that each person has one row with all the data...I USUALLY would sit and sort by each total, shift them over to the right into their own columns, then sit and shift them all up to one line...but thats a carpal tunnel project and i know there must be an easier way....subtotalling brings the numbers down to one line once I have shifted each one over, but not the rest of the data....
My boss gave me a project and need to be done as soon as possible. Basically, i just need to join all of database and then identify duplicates and put them in another sheet in order to investigate if there are any double payments.
Duplicates can be:
- invoices with same vendor name having same or comparable amounts - invoices with Invoice No. which match or closely match (in case we're mis-keying)
I've tried so many ways to find duplicates that fulfill the 2 conditions above, but still cannot make it done.
I have a macro already that prints my blank invoices sequentially. What I would now like to do, is insert a dash. SO instead of just the invoice number, I would like to have a 1- in front of each number;
1-1 1-2 1-3 1-4 ... etc.
I have uploaded the 'invoice' that I am currently using.
I'm trying to auto input names from my schedule into dailytasks for my servers. Sometimes the amount of servers on a specific day changes(i.e Mondays 3 to 5 servers and Friday - Sunday there is 4-6 servers on) and times could change also as of now it works with
=VLOOKUP("6:00",AC$25:AJ$46,8,FALSE)
Not sure how to set up lookup value and return the name
