setting up a stock ordering system in Excel. I have been sent a spreadsheet with about 400 items I've ordered before and about 15 columns of descriptions which include the name, category of item, manufacturer, cost, number etc.
I would like to set up a simple Excel spreadsheet which staff can use when they want to order some stock, which will automatically fill in the adjacent cells with the product category and unit cost, once the name has been typed into the first cell. Once I add the SUM formula I can therefore have an immediate total of how much each staff member is spending on stock that week, without having to look at the invoice I get back from the supplier.
I know Excel has a predictive text style feature (autocomplete?) but I don't know how to get it to automatically fill several cells in a row with data that is linked to the first cell.
I have created a stock sheet on Sheet1, i have say 100 items and each item has a min and max stock order. Once the item hits a min low, the last cell (O) will display an order needs to be placed.
I was wondering if there way a way that on sheet2, it can calculate all the data on sheet1 and if there is stock that needs to be ordered, it will appear on sheet2?
This way i can just print sheet2 and send it to the supplier without having the entire 100 items displayed -if it does not need to be ordered?
I am fairly new to VBA / Excel programming. I have been trying to write a report out of excel from our company DB (SQL2005). The database is run by our frontend accounting application - so i cant mess with it at all, must only run queries.
I need to pull the last 24 months of stock sales data(by stock code or category) out of our DB into excel by counting transactions on Customer Invoices / credits. Into a table as follows.. Stock Code--Month1-Month2-Month3 ABC1----------43------33------19 ABC2-----------2------10------25 I have managed to make a script that fullfills this need but it takes about 15 minutes to run(Due to having to loop many times per item/ per month).... I was just wondering if anyone had any tips / advice on different ways to do this..??? Ive had a quick look at Pivottables but havent gone very far in, maybe they are the answer, but this amateur does not know.
rows 1 and 2 are used for my parameters. row 1 being used for descriptions: Ticker Symbol, Start Date, End Date, and pulling in the close price and volume for each ticker symbol with the selected date range. row 2 being used for entering the parameter info. row 2 Would read (as an example)
MSFT, 1/1/2002, 1/1/2003, close price, volume.
For each ticker in column A, add a separate wksheet named the ticker symbol and pull in the corresponding info.
So the final result for MSFT, would be an added wksheet named MSFT, with the colums headers being the close and volume, and the rows being the date parameters set in row 2.
Below are the weekly closing prices for a stock market index. I'm looking to use conditional formatting to highlight in green "buy" signals and in red "sell" signals.
Buy Signal: If the index rises 4% above any previous low point.
Sell Signal: If the index falls 4% from any previous high point.
DateAdj Close 3/10/201472.16 3/3/201473.55 2/24/201472.83 2/18/201471.92 2/10/201471.43
[code].....
In the above example a Buy Signal is generated on 1/13/2014 because the market closes 4% above the low of 68.24 on 12/9/2013.
I have been using MSNStockQuotes on a few computers without any problems for months.
Now (in the last day or so) , when I press "update Quotes" on any of the computers, I get a "Failed to get requested Data" message. I can often "trick" it into getting the quotes by deleting a bunch of the quotes, then choosing Edit-Undo, which then fetches the quotes properly, but even that fails some of the time (same displayed message).
This happens even with older copies of my spreadsheet that used to work perfectly.
Are others having problems with MSNStockQuotes Excel Plugin?
I am using the the stock chart and I would like there to be a horizontal line across the chart with a y-axis of the opening price. In the end I want this to be in VBA but how to do this manually I should be able to put it in loop of data that will produce many charts with a horizontal line starting at the day opening.
I have tried to add a new series to the chart but I'm using the Candle stick stock chart and the new series comes out as a vertical not horizontal line. I read about using a secondary horizontal axis but all the tutorials I find are in Excel 2003 and they donlt line up well with Excel 2007.
I found this link on charts with horizontal lines but again they are in 2003 and I'm using a candle stick stock chart not a scatter chart. [URL]
Currently I am using MS office 2000 premium. I would like to implement real-time stock prices (i.e. ticker MSFT) from the Nasdaq website (NASDAQ Stock Market - Stock Quotes - Stock Exchange News - NASDAQ.com) into a single cell, so that this cell shows the current stock price only.
By a click on the hyperlink symbol in the excel sheet I entered the following information... Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) Real-Time Stock Quote - NASDAQ.com and clicked the OK button.
Instead of receiving the real-time stock price information directly into the single cell, a new window opens with the Nasdaq website and all kinds of information that is not needed.
I am making an Excel calculation system where I have two factors (weight and opening length), which is essential for which lift there is possible to use.
There are 8 models each of which may have some limitations in terms of weight, and the opening length:
What I am looking for is a formula, that when you enter numbers in two cells "Weight" and "Opening distance" of what their platform is to meet, then all the models that have the potential to accomplish this task pops up.
Example: A client writing a weight of = 40 kg and opening length of = 450 mm. The formula should then show which model that meets the requirements.
In this case: Models that meet the requirements for the lift.
There are many software solutions for clinical information systems, but they all cost a lot. It occurred to me that a bespoke system could be build using excel.
Pull emails from outlook into a spreadsheet and click an add button that would add the From and Subject of the email to the bottom of the list with a timestamp showing the time the add button was pressed for that email. I would like the list to have the oldest timestamps stay at the top of the list, if possible.
I have a workbook that the accountants use each month to supply our clients with thier monthly financials. One of the problems is rounding between Excel and MRI (Host System). I am using an array formula when totaling the various columns and this takes care of most rounding issues.
What I would like to do is have a macro that can be assigned to a command button that the account can click on when there is a rounding issue. The macro would ask the accountant which cell that needs to be adjusted (the cells are protected) and then another box would pop up asking for the amount (i.e. .01, -.01) then the macro would add this to the formula in that particular cell.
create a unique scoring system on a set of given criteria that enables an even split in work for team members. so i.e. work comes in, and depending on the criteria of work its then passed to the relevant team member based on points. At the moment work is allocated A-Z which is working out unfair on team members as some are getting more/less work than others...a points system will enable a even split. so if a piece of work scores 30 points it goes to a junior member, if a piece of work scores 80 points it goes to a senior member and so on...my problem is how to link the points and criteria...Im guessing joint vlookups will be needed.
the only other way i can think a system is similar is like a fantasy football system...points based on criteria.
I am looking for information on how I can use the Transfer Data from System i Add-In for Excel to only get data that equals the data in one of my columns (both sets of data are strings). Unfortunately, I cannot just get the entire contents of the System i table since it contains more than the maximum allowed in Excel.
Is it possible to make excel template work only on 1 computer by giving any vba password (on lines of license number).
Aim is to ensure it works on only client computer, even if template is shared outside it becomes useless.(We often see clients audit team getting access to templates using it for thier purpose & distributing).
In same spirit what are best practices one can take like protecting formulas with password etc
Looking to create a system to measure KPI (key performance indicators). I need to include a weekly target and then measure performance for that week against the target. I want to create a form to make data entry simple, how best it would be to implement using excel. Would I have 2 tables, one for targets and one for performance and then use look ups, [URL]
I am creating a login system for two users on a excel worksheet. I have the two users on a drop-down list, Maria and Andrew, which then requires a password entry. This is linked onto a data validation to make sure that the password matches the data table.
After, I then click on a macro, which, when successful, takes me from sheet 1 to sheet 2.
My problem is that I need to have it so that Maria is taken from Sheet 1 to Sheet 2, and Andrew from Sheet 1 to Sheet 3.
I am trying to create simple password protected system in excel. What I have already done is I have a worksheet, which is not visible that holds all user names, passwords and user roles, such as admin and user. Now my problem, I need to create a UserForm that will prompt user to input their details prior to using the workbook. I have no problems with creating the form itself but I cannot really create a code to handle the task. Also, there will be only one system admin, which means that only admin should be able to create users, so that when admin will sign in, he should be able to see the button on the home screen, something like "Create New User". I cannot post my workbook because of the Corporate Copyrights and privacy, but what I can do is post all named ranges that contain password, usernames etc.
I am running Excel 2010. On a sheet that I have previously used many times, I select all, and set row height to 30. In the past, that has made the sheet fit nicely on one page. Nothing has been changed in the content or number of rows, but all of a sudden the result leaves me with a sheet that takes more than one page to print. It is almost like the number entered is being defined by some new unit of measurement.
setting up filters or sorting for different columns in excel.
I am trying to make a database for my research. At the moment my cells look like this (this is just and example, the real list would be much longer):
Source Policy
IEA WEO RE Policy Global
IEA Clean Technology Tracker RE Policy China, US
[code]...
I would like to put a drop down menu that allows me to search my sources. For example, I want to find 'IEA' in the 'Source' column and only entries with 'IEA' in the title pop up. Or I want to find 'Wind' in the 'Policy' column and only entries with 'wind' come up.
I'm have Excel 2010 and Windows XP. Each week I get 3 spreadsheets and each has data unique to it. Each spreadsheet has a week number column which is common to all three. I want to combine the three worksheets into one and make create several dynamic charts for management. How should I organize a large spreadsheet? In addition to my week number I have a host of other date fields. Some of the data I get is (1) vehicle VIN numbers (2) City/State/Country (3a) I break up the VIN to give me vehicle type (3b) year of assembly (3c) car type (3d) number of doors (4) mileage (5) complaint (7) defect code etc. etc. What are the do's and don't when setting up a large spreadsheet? I have data by week which goes back to 2006 and so my date fields go top-down. I inherited the three spreadsheets and would like everything under one roof, so to speak. One spreadsheet which I can make my charts.
I would really like excel to open files in a new instance of excel by default. Currently the only way I can do this is by starting excel and then File->Open. While this is only a little bit of extra effort, I've recently gotten in the habit of opening and closing 100s csv files daily and the wasted time really adds up. I've read several threads here, but mostly found people trying to accomplish the opposite of what I am.
Iv changed the security settings to my name (along with admin) and removed 'everyone'.now when i go into my folder, everyone else's excel sheet is there but mine has gone.
In Excel 2010 I was working on a file setting it up to print. The file closed somehow and I just cannot reopen it. There are other files in the same folder and they all open normally.
