Creating a formula which includes percentages
Looking at your data table below you seem to be starting from the wrong
place. For example yo have a column 'Months Registered' that contains a
number of months. If you approach it that way it will be wrong next month.
What you need is 2 tables:-
Customer - Date registered - Months registered
Bloggs 1/6/2007 =MONTH(NOW())-MONTH(b2)
Month regsitered now updates automatically.
In a second table you need:-
Months - Discount
5 5%
10 10%
15 12%
20 15%
A simple Vlookup now calculates the discount per Customer
=VLOOKUP(C2,A1:B9,2,TRUE)
Where c2 is the months registered.
a1:b9 is the discount table
True makes it return the nearest value if there isn't an exact match.
