Multiple greater thans

[nt5acs]

I have a data set that I would like to be able to examine for a given ID of a certain model type that has a value over an upper spec limit. Each id has a value logged per day.

Objectives:
1.) return a count the days that a given unit was over the spec limit for its particular model type.
2.) be able to sample on a given date and identify which ID's were over their limits

I have been trying to learn to use vlookup. I have not been able to get the function to return any values as of yet. Below is a scalled down version of the table for discussion.

Thank you

Hi and welcome to the board
You can use SUMPRODUCT. For your "y" model, per your example, you would use

=SUMPRODUCT(--(B2:B16="y")*--(C2:C16>10))

You could also use COUNTIFS in Excel 2007

Do you just want a number for how many times a product was above spec, or do you want the dates too? If you're only looking for a count, this might work:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(B2:B14=E2),--(C2:C14>F2))

where b2:b14 would be your Model
C2:C14 would be the Value
E2 model number to be tested (upper specs limits table)
F2 upper spec limit

Thanks for the tips... I will try them and let you know how it goes.

Gentlemen, Thank you! The code works great, I was able to run this on my sheet and I can get a count of all hits over the spec limit...

For further understanding on my part, please comment on the following:
The data set that I am working with has on the order of 2K Unique_ID's, each with 90 to 180 entries ( daily reporting) for Q1 and Q1 of 2011. (> 162K records).

Now that I can count the hits, I would like to learn how to:
1.) Show the counts per day
2.) Request the counts for a particular date
3.) Show which unique ID was over spec for a given date.

I have tried to pivot the data but I haven't been able to see the output that I am looking for.. It seems that I should pivot the data through the example formulas, would this work and if so how?
Thanks again for your help.

Maybe what you can do is add another column to your data that would show whether it is over the spec or not. something like:

=IF(C2>VLOOKUP(B2,H$2:I$10,2,),1,0)

where H$2:I$10 is your table of upper specs. this formula puts a 1 in the row if it was over the upper specs.. then do a pivot table to sum or count these 1's

I have added this function and in the large sheet I can get it to work, Thanks.

it doesn't show up in the pivot table yet (I am guessing operator issue).
<TABLE style="WIDTH: 339pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=452><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 48pt" width=64><COL style="WIDTH: 65pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 3181" width=87><COL style="WIDTH: 226pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 11008" width=301><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f2f2f2; WIDTH: 48pt; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid" class=xl66 height=20 width=64>Over</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: #7f7f7f; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffcc99; WIDTH: 65pt; BORDER-TOP: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid" class=xl67 width=87></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: #7f7f7f; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffcc99; WIDTH: 226pt; BORDER-TOP: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid" class=xl67 width=301>"=IF(C2>VLOOKUP(B2,F$5:G$7,2,),1,0)</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

I was trying to figure out how to count the days that a unique id was over the spec. I came up with :
<TABLE style="WIDTH: 339pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=452><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 48pt" width=64><COL style="WIDTH: 65pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 3181" width=87><COL style="WIDTH: 226pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 11008" width=301><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #ece9d8; BORDER-LEFT: #ece9d8; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f2f2f2; WIDTH: 48pt; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #ece9d8; BORDER-RIGHT: #ece9d8" class=xl68 height=20 width=64>x</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #3f3f3f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: #3f3f3f 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f2f2f2; WIDTH: 65pt; BORDER-TOP: #3f3f3f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: #3f3f3f 0.5pt solid" class=xl67 width=87 align=right>2</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffcc99; WIDTH: 226pt; BORDER-TOP: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: #7f7f7f 0.5pt solid" class=xl66 width=301>"=NETWORKDAYS(D2,D4)</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

This is just the difference in total days.. How can i return the contiguous dates that an id was over spec.... after that I can sum them to get the totals.

I would like to generate from this a report of the contiguous blocks
id, first date over spec, last date over spec, total days.

This is what the pivot table looks like.. is this what you want?

Excel Workbook
	B	C	D	E	F	G
1	PROD	VALUE	DATE	OVER	*	*
2	X	2	3/20/2011	*	X	5
3	X	5	3/21/2011	*	Y	10
4	X	7	3/22/2011	* * * * * * * *1	*	*
5	Y	8	3/20/2011	*	*	*
6	Y	12	3/21/2011	* * * * * * * *1	*	*
7	Y	18	3/22/2011	* * * * * * * *1	*	*
8	X	3	3/20/2011	*	*	*
9	X	6	3/21/2011	* * * * * * * *1	*	*
10	Y	11	3/22/2011	* * * * * * * *1	*	*
11	*	*	*	*	*	*
12	Sum of OVER	PROD	*	*	*	*
13	DATE	X	Y	Grand Total	*	*
14	3/20/2011	0	0	0	*	*
15	3/21/2011	1	1	2	*	*
16	3/22/2011	1	2	3	*	*
17	Grand Total	2	3	5	*	*
Sheet1

So, from row 12 down is the pivot table.. you see that in C15 it's the first date X was over specs on 3/21/11, and in C17 it shows that it was over specs 2 times in total.

Getting closer... I will continue to play... Thanks

The problem with listing a number of entries into one cell requires that you first come up with an array formula that will contain the dates you want to display, then turn that array that has multiple values into a string that essentially contains one combined value. You can find some VB code here on that subject..
