Hello everybody...
I need some help to automate one of my matrix tables... What I am looking for is to have a formula or a macro to mix randomly the list of machines that need to be audited by day.
My matrix has in column A the name of my 5 auditors and column AM is the list of my 80 machines that need to be audited. Column B, C, D, E….etc is the days of the month
Every month I have to manually change the machines from the table doing copy and paste so auditors do not have the same schedule.... each auditor needs to audit two machines per day (no weekends)
is there any easy way to do this?
Regards,
Alex
 

Excel Facts

Copy PDF to Excel
Select data in PDF. Paste to Microsoft Word. Copy from Word and paste to Excel.
If you are not concerned about some machines being missed in the month and some audited more than once, a simple =RANDBETWEEN(1,80) would work. You could embed this in a vlookup if the machine name is required instead of numbers 1-80.
