Hard to explain but let me try
We took a survey on our team, asking what subject matter they are comfortable with. There are 100 topics, and there will be redundancy as far as employees selecting the same topic. re: John Doe, Jane Doe, and Jim Doe selected Topic 1, 2, and 3.
For round numbers, let's say we have 25 people on the team, and 100 "topics." We need to "assign" 4 topics to each person (to cover the 100). Some topics only have one person who said they are comfortable with it. That is easy to "assign" to a person. The main objective is to be sure we have
- Only 4 topics per person
- Having every single topic aligned to an employee.
Can this be done with a pivot table? Formula? Appreciate the help!
Here is an example of the kind of data I am working with.
