Hello all,
Was wondering whether anyone could advise whether this is possible. Here is my data
AREA 1 AREA 2
ORIGINAL 2 -0.5
ADJUSTED 1.5 0
What I need is formulas in the adjusted row to look at the number above in the original row, and detect whether it is a positive or negative number.
If it is positive, then it will just display that number. If the original is negative, it will look at the number in area 2 column (original row) and if that number is positive, it will take off that number and attempt to add onto the area 1 until it gets to zero. The adjusted row will then show these adjusted values as above.
It should only take off the number until the reducing number reaches 0 and then stop.
Not sure any of that made sense but if anyone gets what I am on about and can help, it would be most appreciated!
Many thanks
