Requesting Array simplification if possible

[Micfish]

Hello All,

First time poster.

i have a problem with a daily data dump selection where I am trying to extract information. (qty. totals, dollar averages, by company, certain times of the day, etc.)

The table looks like this example:

example			hour1	price1	hour2	price2	hour3	price3
company1	location 2	purchase	50	22			40	28
company2	location 1	sale	10	40	50	42
company3	location 2	purchase	40	22	30	24

<TBODY>
</TBODY>

the problem i am having is that, because each row holds 2 different types of values (quantity and price) doing a normal sumifs or sum(if array becomes extremely intensive.

example below is one of my active (and working) forumula to get the total dollars for sales in a give 24 hour period (so i have to multiply adjacent cells to get the hourly dollar value:


=SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!S22:S100*Source!T22:T100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!U22:U100*Source!V22:V100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!W22:W100*Source!X22:X100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!Y22:Y100*Source!Z22:Z100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AA22:AA100*Source!AB22:AB100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AC22:AC100*Source!AD22:AD100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AE22:AE100*Source!AF22:AF100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AG22:AG100*Source!AH22:AH100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AI22:AI100*Source!AJ22:AJ100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AK22:AK100*Source!AL22:AL100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AM22:AM100*Source!AN22:AN100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AO22:AO100*Source!AP22:AP100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AQ22:AQ100*Source!AR22:AR100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AS22:AS100*Source!AT22:AT100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AU22:AU100*Source!AV22:AV100))+SUM(IF(Source!D22:D100="Sale",Source!AW22:AW100*Source!AX22:AX100))


isnt that a beast?!?!

question, is there a more simple way to do this? I almost get a migrane just looking at it. any advice would greatly be appreciated.

Hi
Welcome to the board

Not sure I understood exactly, but for ex. to get the total of Sale or Purchase, try in C9:

=SUM(IF($C$2:$C$4=B9,IF(ISEVEN(COLUMN($D$2:$H$4)-COLUMN($D$2)),$D$2:$H$4*$E$2:$I$4)))

This is an array formula, you have to confirm it with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER and not just ENTER.

Ok PGC, you make that look so elegant. thanks for your help.

 

[pgc01]

You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback.

PGC, if i may ask.... just so I better understand the funtion logic,

=SUM(IF($C$2:$C$4=B9,IF(ISEVEN(COLUMN($D$2:$H$4)-COLUMN($D$2)),$D$2:$H$4*$E$2:$I$4)))
sum(if estabilshes the array =b9 sets the criteria, iseven returns a true if even and false if odd, the column establishes the range, what does the -column$d$2 do?

thanks in advance

Hi

You subtract column$d$2 so that you always get the distance (in number of columns) to the first column (D)

COLUMN($D$2:$H$4)-COLUMN($D$2)

for COLUMN($D$2:$H$4) you get the array: {4,5,6,7,8}
for COLUMN($D$2) you get the array: {4}

when you subtract you get the array: {0,1,2,3,4}

this allows you to test with ISEVEN() and only consider columns 0,2,4 ..., that are those you are interested in.
