Hi all,
in colum A i ve inserted dates. Every day i will add a value in column B in the specific line of today's date. And i need excel to sum the values of the last 7 days.
How can i do that ??

the main goal is to use excel to count if i exceed my allowed duty time per 7 day consecutive days.

Thank for your help.
ps : i am a beginner in Excel...i just know the very very basic operation for now...

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
I don't know if this is the best solution, but you could try this.

If your numbers are in B1 through B16, and your summation is in cell B17 use this formula:
=SUM(OFFSET(B17,-1,0):OFFSET(B17,-7,0))

As you add days, just make sure you copy down this formula first then overwrite yesterday's formula with today's hours

here's a formula that sums the last 7 cells in column A:

=SUM(OFFSET(A1,MATCH(1E+306,A:A)-7,0):OFFSET(A1,MATCH(1E+306,A:A),0))
