| Hi All
|
| I'd be greatful for further help from the assembled Excel Experts with these three points:-
|
| 1. I'm currently keeping a running sales worksheet. Column A, has the date, B transaction details and C money taken. Column D
keeps a running total - previous row's total plus this row's C. All straightforward stuff so far. But I want to keep a reference
to the current rolling total on a summary worksheet - whatever is the bottom entry value in Column D. Is there any way of doing
this, when the entry goes down one line for every new transaction?
|
| 2. I'd like to add a further column that keeps a running sales figure for the week. To do this it needs to check back to
locate a date 7 days before the current date, and then add all the Column C figures up to the current transaction. There could be
any number of transactions on any given date. Is this possible?
|
| 3. I've just hacked together the following formula to display the day name for any given date:
|
| =IF(WEEKDAY(B17)=7, "Saturday",IF(WEEKDAY(B17)=6, "Friday",IF(WEEKDAY(B17)=5, "Thursday",IF(WEEKDAY(B17)=4,
"Wednesday",IF(WEEKDAY(B17)=3, "Tuesday",IF(WEEKDAY(B17)=2, "Monday", IF(WEEKDAY(B17)=1, "Sunday")))))))
|
| (Here column B has transacation dates) Surely there's an easier way of doing this? (I think this only came up recently in the
group - apologies if so, I can't find it).
|
| Many thanks
