Excel 2003 sheet links advice
I need to allocate people to jobs available hence making rotas for the year.
I have a list of names sheet and 2 sheets with different types of jobs, some being for 4 months and some 6 months (they all start at the same time which helps) I have started by putting all the possible start dates across the top of all sheets and blanking out dates not applicable (ie depending if 4m or 6m job) I need to: allocate jobs to each name for the year (not randomly), also put the name on the job sheets. Can anyone let me know if there is an easy way of cross-referencing all info so I don't double book people or jobs or omit anyone or job? I was thinking of ways to flag this up? Hope you can understand! Thanks |

Thanks for this. Don't think I'll use the actual link item (easier to just
colour the name when used it) but the site you suggested is great. Not sure what I need actually - maybe some sort of formula to run checks over the 3 sheets to make sure I haven't allocated the same post to a person for the 4/6 month block. Not sure where to start.
