When you want to Analize data in Excel you need to arrange it in a Database
or Table format first, with headings like EmplName Date TotalInvoices
CustmVisits ItemSold Amt

Then each row is a transaction record. Once the data is arranged like this
you can easily use DataFilterAutofilter to get information about any
employee/date/Sales etc and apply commissions to the data or subtotals. The
Subtotal function, in fact, has several forms that perform many types of
anal on filtered data of this kind.

I am importing productivity data from our pos system into worksheet A and
trying to use it to sum up some totals per employee and put it in worksheet B
to calculate commission. I would like to do a lookup for the employee and
then add up his totals for(in this example) air filters and Breathers. So the
lookup should return 25.98 for DUMA,ABE or 21.98 for DAVIS,AL. Is this
possible with lookups and sums?

column A column B
Employee: DUMA,ABE

Average Time Per Car

Item
==================
TOTAL INVOICES 7
CUSTOMER VISITS:

LUBE ONLY:

AIR FILTERS: 14.99
BREATHER FILTERS: 10.99

Employee: DAVIS,AL

==================
TOTAL INVOICES 12

BREATHER FILTERS: 13.99
