Hello,

I have a sheet that shows data for several months, it has multiple instances
of each day (7/1/2008 may appear in 40 rows) as the data is from different
sources. It has another column that shows the amount of time an even
happened for each date in minutes. I need to filter this information by week
and by the count of times 5 minutes to get the percent of time 5 minutes
this even happened each week. Just to make matters more difficult the data
will be updated each week, thankfully it will be added to the end of the
table so I can just past down the formula.
I'd really appreciate some help with this because a COUNTIF formula keeps
returning errors.
Thank you

Hi

Assuming your dates are in column A and Times in column B

in D2 Enter your week start date
In E2
=SUMPRODUCT(($A2$A$1000=$D2)*
($A$2:$A$1000<=$D2+6)*($B$2:B$1000TIME(0,5,0)))
Will give the Count of Times Greater than 5 minutes in that week.
If you enter in F2
=SUMPRODUCT(($A2$A$1000=$D2)*
($A$2:$A$1000<=$D2+6))
That will give a Count of all times for that Week.
G2
=E2/F2*100

If you made E3
=E2+7
then that would step up the starting week dates for you without you having
to type them.

Hi Roger,

Thanks for the reply but the formula is returning an error. I'm not sure if
it's because of a problem in the formula or that I'm using 2002. Or it could
be that the time column is not formulated as time just as a number with 2
decimal places.

I have
=SUMPRODUCT(--(D2:D31719<="7/26/2008"+0),--(D2:D31719"7/19/2008"+0),G2:G31719)
which finds the total but is more cumbersome than your formula as I am
manually entering the date ranges.

Thanks

Hi,

Here is a formula that should get you the % of items in a given week that
exceed 5 minutes:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A$2:A$26=E1),--(A$2:A$26<=E2),--(B$2:B$265))/SUMPRODUCT(--(A$2:A$26=E1),--(A$2:A$26<=E2))

A2:A26 is the date range, B2:B26 is the minute range. E1 contains the
starting date of the week you want, E2 contains the ending date of that week.
You can enter these each week to get your results. You will highlight a
much larger range but it makes no difference. Format the formula cell to %.

There is one possible complication, this formula assumes minutes are entered
as numbers such as 1, 3, 11 or 2.5, but not as times 8:03.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

I tried that, it didn't work either. I've been playing with the formula but
continually get errors or incorrect data. It might be summing and not
counting.

Thanks for your help but I'm sorry, this formula returns incorrect result.
When I try in test data a COUNTIF statement finds 147, this formula finds
none. Again, I wonder if the sumproduct is adding and not counting.

My data looks like this:
Date Minutes
7/1/2008 35.53
7/1/2008 6.78
7/1/2008 4.00
7/1/2008 32.43
7/1/2008 32.75
7/1/2008 25.68
7/1/2008 13.72
7/1/2008 18.33
7/1/2008 6.57
7/1/2008 8.65
7/1/2008 37.65
7/1/2008 27.43
7/1/2008 21.83
7/1/2008 19.55

I'm trying to find out how many times the time column shows less 5, in the
example since it's 14 rows & only 1 is less than 5 the result returned should
be 13.

I hope that makes things clearer.

Thank you for your help.

Thanks Roger, that does work. The weird thing is that when I use that
formula I get different results compared to a report that uses the same data
for 1 week and a COUNTIF formula (=COUNTIF(B2:B1000,"5")
I do you have any idea why the results would be different?

Hi

If the data is the same, the results will be the same.
Perhaps you have some data which is outside the week?
Perhaps you have a Text value of 5 rather than numeric in one of the rows?

Hi

If the data is the same, the results will be the same.
Perhaps you have some data which is outside the week?
Perhaps you have a Text value of 5 rather than numeric in one of the
rows?

Thanks Roger, that does work. The weird thing is that when I use that
formula I get different results compared to a report that uses the same
data
for 1 week and a COUNTIF formula (=COUNTIF(B2:B1000,"5")
I do you have any idea why the results would be different?

Thanks again

Hi

Sorry, typo in my formula
try
=SUMPRODUCT(($A2:$A$1000=$D2)*($A$2:$A$1000<=$D2+ 6)*($B$2:B$10005))
Returned a result of 13 with your data.

Thanks for your help but I'm sorry, this formula returns incorrect
result.
When I try in test data a COUNTIF statement finds 147, this formula
finds
none. Again, I wonder if the sumproduct is adding and not counting.

My data looks like this:
Date Minutes
7/1/2008 35.53
7/1/2008 6.78
7/1/2008 4.00
7/1/2008 32.43
7/1/2008 32.75
7/1/2008 25.68
7/1/2008 13.72
7/1/2008 18.33
7/1/2008 6.57
7/1/2008 8.65
7/1/2008 37.65
7/1/2008 27.43
7/1/2008 21.83
7/1/2008 19.55

I'm trying to find out how many times the time column shows less 5,
in
the
example since it's 14 rows & only 1 is less than 5 the result
returned
should
be 13.

I hope that makes things clearer.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

Here is a formula that should get you the % of items in a given
week
that
exceed 5 minutes:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A$2:A$26=E1),--(A$2:A$26<=E2),--(B$2:B$265))/SUMPRODUCT(--(A$2:A$26=E1),--(A$2:A$26<=E2))

A2:A26 is the date range, B2:B26 is the minute range. E1 contains
the
starting date of the week you want, E2 contains the ending date of
that
week.
You can enter these each week to get your results. You will
highlight a
much larger range but it makes no difference. Format the formula
cell
to
%.

There is one possible complication, this formula assumes minutes
are
entered
as numbers such as 1, 3, 11 or 2.5, but not as times 8:03.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Thanks,

Hello,

I have a sheet that shows data for several months, it has
multiple
instances
of each day (7/1/2008 may appear in 40 rows) as the data is from
different
sources. It has another column that shows the amount of time an
even
happened for each date in minutes. I need to filter this
information
by week
and by the count of times 5 minutes to get the percent of time
5
minutes
this even happened each week. Just to make matters more
difficult
the
data
will be updated each week, thankfully it will be added to the end
of
the
table so I can just past down the formula.
I'd really appreciate some help with this because a COUNTIF
formula
keeps
returning errors.
Thank you

Text value rather than # as you suggested.

Thanks
