Hello everyone,

I’d really appreciate your help with this problem please…

We are managing our business spending across 4 credit cards.

Each credit card has a different limit. The total limit is £54,000

Every time one of the cards hits it’s credit limit, we move spending to the next card in the list.

Once the total spend gets to £53,000, we pay down the first card and start spending on that card again.

Card 1 has limit of £9,600. Card 2 has a limit of £14,400. Card 3 has a limit of £19,200. Card 4 has a limit of £10,800.

Please see this image to see how I would like this laid out: https://photos.app.goo.gl/g8aU7MRM2mH6Vvuq6

I would like to put the total spend for each week in row 2 and then for Excel to automatically fill in rows 5 to 8 and rows 11 to 14 (rows 17 to 20 and 23 to 26 are already taken care of as they are straight-forward).

Any ideas please community??? Thanks so much!

Thanks. That's strange. Any chance you could provide a download link again please?

(Ps. Is there anyway I can say "thank you"? Do you have a patreon for example?)

It's still paying it down a week early? For example, card 1 is paid down in week 8 but not spent on again until week 9.

It should be paid down in week 9 and spent on again in week 9 also.

Does that make sense? Thanks!
