Find Duplicate Rows across multiple columns, sum dupes to a column, remove duplicates. VBA?

[jrsmoots]

I have a spreadsheet like this:

UN	Job	RG	AS	TH	SumDupes
L217028	1	B	12	75
L217028	1	C	12	50
L217028	1	C	12	50
L217028	1	C	12	100
L217028	2	A	6	50

<tbody>
</tbody>

I need to find duplicates: duplicate in this case means that the "Job", "RG" and "AS" are identical. So in above sample the 2nd, 3rd and 4th data rows would be considered duplicates.

I need to then sum the "TH" column for these duplicates. So, 50+50+50.

I then need to remove the duplicates (consolidate?) it down to one row, that row having the total from the duplicates (the 50+50+50).

I'm pretty comfortable with VBA, less comfortable with Excel formulas. Is this procedure something I could do from within Excel, using VBA? Trying to figure out how to present this functionality to the end user too...Maybe they could run a Macro that calls a VBA function?

I try concatenating the three columns that might might be duplicates, and tried the following formulas, which work for finding duplicates

IF(COUNTIF($H$2:H2,H2)>1, " Here I am! I'm a duplicate!","Original")

And summing duplicates:
=IF(AND(COUNTIF(H$2:H2,H2)=COUNTIF(H:H,H2),COUNTIF(H:H,H2)>1),SUMIF(H:H,H2,F:F),"")

Thanks in advance!

Hi & welcome to MrExcel.
How about

Sub jrsmoots()
   Dim Cl As Range, Rng As Range
   Dim Vlu As String
   
   With CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
      For Each Cl In Range("B2", Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
         Vlu = Cl.Value & "|" & Cl.Offset(, 1).Value & "|" & Cl.Offset(, 2).Value
         If Not .exists(Vlu) Then
            .Add Vlu, Cl.Offset(, 3)
         Else
            .Item(Vlu).Value = .Item(Vlu) + Cl.Offset(, 3).Value
            If Rng Is Nothing Then Set Rng = Cl Else Set Rng = Union(Rng, Cl)
         End If
      Next Cl
   End With
   If Not Rng Is Nothing Then Rng.EntireRow.Delete
End Sub
