Cell F17 contains a fixed number (pieces per case pack). My customer will input a number (pieces needed) in cell G17. I need a formula that will round cell G17 up to the nearest case pack (number in cell F17).
 

Excel Facts

Select a hidden cell
Somehide hide payroll data in column G? Press F5. Type G1. Enter. Look in formula bar while you arrow down through G.

Welcome to the Board...

There will no doubt be a shorter way, but this should do what you want:

=IF(MOD(G17,F17)=0,G17,G17-MOD(G17,F17)+F17)

=IF(or(G17="",F17=""),"",CEILING(G17,F17)) will take care of either F17 or G17 being empty.
