Hi all,

Hoping someone can help me with this query.
I have a workbook I am working on that currently sums all the values in column "O" if the value on the same row in column "L" is "WP" or "BS" until an empty cell is reached.
I would like to expand upon this formula so that it still sums like I have mentioned above but will not include summing for any value in column "O" if the value on the same row in column AC is equal to NO. Is this possible?
I have made the start of the formula have some if, or, and, offset evaluations that are required for a plethora of reasons I'd rather not get into so really I'd imagine it would just be a tweak to the SUM formula part onwards?

I'm not quite sure how column H fits into it or the "T" in O1, but in any case I would be trying to avoid the volatile function OFFSET if possible.
Could we employ something like we did in another similar thread of yourd recently?

Hi Peter,
I was using the offset function because when someone inserts rows into the spreadsheet it changes the "-SUM(G5:G$100)" function and no longer calculates correctly.
I think the volatile offset function will be okay to use as the workbook I'm creating is actually a weekly template and each sheet on it only gets used for the day.
It really works quite well for what I need it to do. I was hoping to just expand on the existing formula to include the part about not summing any values in column O that have the value No in column AC.
I have to be a bit careful with what information I share as some of it is sensitive but I have tried to pull together a test copy of the sheet so you can better see what I'm working with.

I have cleared out a lot of the column headers and only left the important ones but basically it's for organizing and tracking loads on trucks for a day.
Column AC is changed to no if a delivery is missed on a shipment. Each block of rows until a blank row represents an entire load.
The "from" column represents the location something is loaded from but the amount from the different location needs to still be included in the load (t) total.
I've added the table that the vlookup sources the rego, type and truck (t) from in its most basic form too underneath the main table.

I think the volatile offset function will be okay to use ..
I would still be looking for an alternative (& I'm almost certain there will be one) but to answeer your question, what about this?

Excel Formula:
=LET(r,MATCH(TRUE,($O4:O$101=""),0),IF(OR(H4<>"",D4<>""),IF(AND(O4<>"",OR(OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="",OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="Tonnes (t)")),SUMIF(AC4:INDEX(AC4:$AC$101,r),"<>NO",O4:INDEX(O4:$O$101,r)),""),""))

I note that this and your formula in post #4 now are taking no account of column L needing to be WP or BS. Has that requirement disappeared? Or going by your latest sample data, they are the only non-blank values in column L?

If you did want to investigate a non-volatile alternative, I would want to know (in words) just what this part of your formula is trying to do
IF(AND(O4<>"",OR(OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="",OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="Tonnes (t)")),
In your sample data it seems that for every row that has a value in column D, the above conditions are met and for the only row where column H has a value and column D does not have a value the above conditions are not met.
Based on the given sample then, it would seem that we should only need to check if column D has a value to determine if a value is required in column G.

Hi Peter,
Yes, sorry! The requirement for only summing values that are "WP" and "BS" are still there for column L. I must have accidentally removed it in my attempt to make a testing sheet.

As for the logic behind needing the formula not to sum when H is blank, this is because until a shipment has a shipment number against it, the sum of the load is not finalized. Basically, nothing should sum unless a rego is assigned to the load (column d) or a shipment number is assigned to the load (column H).
Can both things be added back into your formula? Your new formula is great by the way. Way beyond me.

The reason I have "IF(AND(O4<>"",OR(OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="",OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="Tonnes (t)"))," in the formula because when new rows are inserted into the sheet, it was changing the "-SUM(G3:G$100))" in your original formula. The users of the sheet will frequently insert new rows to move/ split up shipments to assign them to different trucks etc. For example, if 5 rows are added below row 5 this makes the formula in G5 change from "-SUM(G6:G$100))" to be "-SUM(G11:G$100))". It will then revert back on row 6 to "-SUM(G7:G$100))" etc. See below. It could just be me being a noob.

nothing should sum unless a rego is assigned to the load (column d) or a shipment number is assigned to the load (column H).
So why is there no value in cell G10 of post #4 since there is a shipment number in column H?

Hi Peter,
There is no value in cell G10 due to the neither of the offset criteria being fulfilled. If row 9 cell O9 is not blank or equal to "Tonnes (t)" then the blank value is returned to G10.
In this formula however it does not account for the need to count only "WP" and "BS". It just sums everything until a blank cell is reached.
Your new formula is far better. Is there a way to amend it to include summing only for column O values where rows contain WP and BS as well as nothing summing unless a rego is assigned to the load (column d) or a shipment number is assigned to the load (column H)?

Excel Formula:
=LET(r,MATCH(TRUE,($O4:O$101=""),0),IF(OR(H4<>"",D4<>""),IF(AND(O4<>"",OR(OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="",OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="Tonnes (t)")),SUMIF(AC4:INDEX(AC4:$AC$101,r),"<>NO",O4:INDEX(O4:$O$101,r)),""),""))

Hi Peter,
It's long and complex and volitile but I think I worked it out.
The below will sum everything that is not NO in column AH along with everything that is from BS plus everything in column AH that is not NO along with everything that is from WP.
It's not affected by anyone inserting rows thanks to the offset and it wont sum anything at all if either the shipment or the type is blank.

Excel Formula:
=LET(r,MATCH(TRUE,($O4:O$101=""),0),IF(OR(H4<>"",D4<>""),IF(AND(O4<>"",OR(OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="",OFFSET(O4,-1,0)="Tonnes (t)")),SUMIFS(O4:INDEX(O4:$O$101,r),AC4:INDEX(AC4:$AC$101,r),"<>NO",L4:INDEX(L4:$L$101,r),"BS")+SUMIFS(O4:INDEX(O4:$O$101,r),AC4:INDEX(AC4:$AC$101,r),"<>NO",L4:INDEX(L4:$L$101,r),"WP"),""),""))
