I don't know if this is even possible but you guys have pulled off the incredible before so I thought I'd ask,

Imagine I have a sheet where a start and end date of each week worked are in columns A & B, two different companies in columns C & D, and a sum of each row of data in column E.

I'd like to be able to separate data by month. Since both column A & B include a date range that frequently goes over between the end of a month and the beginning, is that going to make it impossible to split?

Excel Facts

Who is Mr Spreadsheet?
Author John Walkenbach was Mr Spreadsheet until his retirement in June 2019.
And the week starting on Feb 26 should belong to Feb or March?
Btw, why your weeks includes 2 "mondays"?

It's possible. Though you will likely have to decide how you want the overlapping data to behave. Do you want to include it in the month it starts, or the month it ends? And How do you want it to look? Can you show us an example of the expected results?

Initially your problem is not an excel expertise question, it is a domain expertise question. You have to have some approved method or formula for allocating which portion goes to which month when the start and end dates straddle a month boundary. One you define the method, then implementing it becomes an excel question.

FYI These are the weekly statements as they appear on both Uber & Lyft's websites. Both companies consider 4:00 AM on Monday through the following Monday at 4:00 AM as a complete week. I'm just looking for a better way of gathering and viewing income.

But the needed action right now is yours. You must explain how you want to split income between two months. Let's take this example:

26-Feb-20244-Mar-2024$ 212.00$ 70.00$ 282.00

How much of the $282 should be allocated to Feb, and how much to March? And how did you arrive at those amounts/percentages?

Got it. It looks like I'm forced to download and pull my data from the daily reports. I'm sorry for wasting you guys' time with such a bonehead question.

Not boneheaded at all. It just requires some thinking about how you want to handle it. A simple way (but not necessarily the best way) would be to decide that you will always allocate the full 'straddle' amount to the the first month, so all $282 in my example would go to Feb.
