dear all,

I have 1 sheet which contains product name, buy or sell, price, amount,
trade date, counterparty.
for example :
book A - buy - $50 - 10 - 1 jan 06 - G
book B - buy - $100 - 20 - 1 jan 06 - G
book A - buy - $60 - 15 - 2 jan 06 - H
book A - sell - $65 - 15 - 3 jan 06 - I
book B - sell - $110 - 15 - 3 jan 06 - J

I would like to have a new sheet which shows FIFO for those books
so it would shows table with something like

book A - sell - $65 - 15 - 3 jan 06 - I consist of : book A - buy -
$50 - 10 - 1 jan 06 - G
:
book A - buy - $60 - 5 - 2 jan 06 - H

(book A sold at 3 jan 06 to I at price $65 is using 10 books bought at
1 jan 06 at price $50 from G & 5 books bought at 2 jan 06 at price $60
from H (in table form))

how can I do that ?

thanks

"Amount" is the volume purchased or sold?

hi, amount is for both...
if the bond is sold, then the number shows amount sold
if the bond is purchased, then the number shows amount bought

Sorry, I have one more question for you. Is it possible to oversell
your inventory? I am nearing a solution for you and do not currently
have solution for reducing inventory below 0.

hi,

it is not possible to oversell the inventory.

many thanks

Try the following code in a worksheet module and let me know how it
works:

Assumptions:
1. Buy/Sell transaction are chronilogical. Routine reduces inventory
from top to bottom
2. No overselling of inventory occurs.

I setup your test data in columns A to F, no headers. To preserve
your original values, I copy all buy transactions to columns g
(starting_inventory). The "Update_Inventory" routine cycles through
the data, finds each "sell" transaction by book type. It then works
down the list reducing the inventory (buy items) in column G until the
value of the sales quantity has been met. Then, it moves on to the next
sale. The "Do" loop and "ErrorHandler" get around a problem I was
having with continuous looping and crashing on the last "findnext"
operation.

Post back and let me now how it works.
