Return summary from list by ranked top 10

[PhxHunter]

Hello all, I've scoured the boards looking for a solution and havne't found one, so I will ask for your help...and thank you in advance for your responses.

I need to return a Top 10 "summary parts list" by highest gross cost for selected "Criteria" i.e. "AVDdi" in this example and time period, from a details file that lists invidual part numbers and cost by date.

This selection would have to between a certain "date requirement", example WW1-12.

I've done the =LARGE(array,k), which I'm sure is included somewhere in the formula solution, which is below, and I'm struggling...

Welcome.

A parameterised query can handle this - without formulas or VBA. Can you please post an image of the first few rows of the input table - to show the headers and some sample data?

regards, Fazza

 

[Fazza]

PS
Please explain how the 'date requirement' is known. Is that defined by two cells - for start and end date? And are they >= the start date and <= end date? Which cells are they? Can you post an image? Or, if not by two cells, how?

Here is a sample of the data...

 

[Fazza]

PS
Please explain how the 'date requirement' is known. Is that defined by two cells - for start and end date? And are they >= the start date and <= end date? Which cells are they? Can you post an image? Or, if not by two cells, how?

Did you miss my second post (copied above)? I don't know how the dates are defined.

The sample data has 'transtype' colored yellow. I don't know why. Is it significant?

The first post shows a criteria for field "CEID" with value AVDdi. I don't understand how that matches the sample data. I don't see such a field.

I also don't understand the dates. The first post mentioned 'WW1-12'. The sample shows 'trans date' as familiar integer values.

BTW, the 'Gross Cost' sample data has negative values. As the largest values are sought, this will pick the least negative values - if not, it is trivial to change.

I could detail the approach but I think it is best to wait until I better understand the data. Of if you want to try it yourself, search for other posts or information on parameterised queries. These provide a non-VBA approach although in a normal situation I would program something similar to create it on the fly every time, either using a query table or ADO depending on exact requirements. Below are various links, they give enough info to know what to do. Basically, set up a query and make it a parameter query linking the parameters to some worksheet cells for the fields/criteria you want - CEID & two dates, or whatever. To get the top 10 have something like this in the SQL: SELECT TOP 10 wanted fields FROM table ORDER BY `Gross Cost` DESC. BTW, the gross cost field isn't required, you can simply multiply the quantity & unit cost values, and aggregate them too if there are multiple records in the item id field.

The colored cells are nothing more than "eye candy"...the first column labeled automatic is where I check if the date is within the timeframe, so the code would need only incorporate where the column "Automatic" row-cell reference would equal 1.

Thanks again for your help!

Did you try the links? It is MUCH easier than me trying to explain it!

Here are the basics. Run a normal data query via menu data, import external data, new database query. Select Excel files & browse for your file (the file must have been saved sometime for this manual approach), acknowledge the message if you get one about no named ranges being found if you get it and then select options, system tables ( = worksheet names. Alternatively and easier is to give your data table a defined name before you start; not dynamic.). Then select the final fields you want: itemID, description (, qty?) & gross cost. Proceed and then go to MS Query when you have the option (when you first see 'finish'). Within MS Query hit the toggle buttons to apply totals to the qty and gross cost fields - help refers (there are other ways to do this). Also sort the gross cost field in descending order. Now hit the 'SQL' button and within the SQL edit the text from "SELECT whatever ..." to "SELECT TOP 10 whatever ...". That is, insert TOP 10 after SELECT, and have a space either side of it. Now to make a qeury table like this into it a parameter query, I prefer to edit the SQL in VBA's immediate window. However it might be easier to explain doing this in MS Query? Within MS Query via menu view, criteria add a criteria. In the criteria dropdown list select the CEID field and for the criteria type in []. When asked for a parameter value enter something and then return the data to a worksheet using the open door icon. When you see a box that has parameter info link now to the worksheet cell that will be the one that contains the CEID value to filter your result set and set the property to have the query refresh every time that cell changes; return the data set below that on the destination worksheet. Now every time the filtering cell value changes, the query will refresh and pull the top 10 total gross costs by itemID. (Obviously the summation will account for the net effect of gross cost like the negative and positive values in the sample data.) This is not as difficult as it seems; my description may be difficult to follow, I might have even got some things wrong, but if you try you should be able to get there.

Again, please look at the linked info as it will help you understand. If I was standing next to you I could show you, but I'm not.

PS
I forgot about the 'Automatic' field. So, just add one more criteria, Automatic=1
