    Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    As example:

    2018-07-13_13-25-33.png

    I like to have 2 charts. If possible in one.
    That in colum B (klant) are customer shortnames and in column I there is the time i have spend on that costumer.
    I like to have a circle chart that shows me how much time i have spend on which costumers.

    Something like this:
    https://www.google.nl/url?sa=i&sourc...31568579226074

    Could you please tell me how to do this and if its even possible with the time values in column I?

    Also, Attach a sample sheet. Your picture is very small and non-editable.

    Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment. So, to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: Just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.

    OK so i got the chart working, BUT, the system think that STX are seperate customers, they should be together by name

    You need to use the Klant column as your axis labels and the Totaal column for the actual data.

    STX are seperate customers, they should be together by name
    Then you need to create a summary table and use that as the source for your chart.

    Summary table:

    Excel 2016 (Windows) 32 bit
    B
    C
    18
    STX
    1:55
    19
    GMS
    0:10
    20
    ML
    2:45
    Sheet: Blad1

    Excel 2016 (Windows) 32 bit
    C
    18
    =SUMIF($B$10:$B$16,B18,$I$10:$I$16)
    Sheet: Blad1

    Once you've created this, change the data references in your chart to point to it.

    Have a go - let us know how you get on.

    Cheat sheet attached.

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    Thank you for the kind words, i tried to pase the code and it gives me a error, i tried to change the sumif to SOM.ALS cause im using a dutch version, but that one is also not working. Shouldnt the code be in another cell D instead of C? cause in C the time data is there.

    Sry just found the example

    PS Ah i get it now

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    But it doesn't, because you are now introducing more requirements!

    OK - can you please provide a sample workbook that realistically reflects your real data? Covering all requirements, please, not just parts of what you want.

    No, you can't, but you can copy the workbook, and then desensitise the copy that you post here. That means provide dummy data in the same layout as your real workbook.

    OK - so I see what you have asked for. Please would you copy and paste the description of what you want here into your next post so that all members can see what you are looking for. I am not able to help you with a chart with two rings - sorry. My charting skills are not that good. I hope that Andy Pope will see this - he's a bit of a charting wizard!

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    Alrighty, thanks

    I like to have this chart
    instead of % id like the time spend on that costumer

    then a second ring around it with the total time of all cosutmers together withtout STX (thats us), so we can
    see how many time we have billable, based on a 40 hours week., not sure if this is possible

    last but least, it would b greate if we can have a third ring around it that will look into all values on all sheet and count them together

    For the benefit of others, "this chart" is a donut chart with the percentages shown.

    Why? The workbook looks the same as the last one to me. Have you solved the issue? If so, can you show us how?

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    m could that be cause i already uploaded a sample.xlsx, idk anyway, im trying to recreate youre formula into my own excelsheet but things wont add up, the timings is incorrect. Im trying to resolve this but i cant find where it goes wrong. Maybe you want to look into it one more time? The values are on B200. Like i said earlier, every week there will be a new sheet, so i need to put those values down below so i have anough space to add more lines if there is more work.

    The timing in C207 is way to high and incorrect.

    You need to reference the correct columns:

    =SUMIF($B$6:$B$196,B201,$I$6:$I$196)

    Try this:

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    tried this:

    =ALS(SOM.ALS($B$6:$B$196,B201,$I$6:$I$196)=0,"",SOM.ALS($B$6:$B$196,B201,$I$6:$I$196))
    fails and $B$196,B201,$I$6 gets highlighted.

    Do i need to alter some points commas or so for translation? cant find anything about that on the excel function name translation

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    You need semi-colons, not commas, for your locale:

    =ALS(SOM.ALS($B$6:$B$196;B201;$I$6:$I$196)=0;"";SOM.ALS($B$6:$B$196;B201;$I$6:$I$196))

    The only way you can stop them showing on the chart is by deselecting them.

    Give me a few minutes - I have an idea. I will post when I have checked it.

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    Try basing the chart on cells J201 onwards. This is a summary of the summary table. Hopefully it will work for you.

    I suspect there's an easier way of doing this with pivot charts, but I would be using guesswork!

    I still hope that Andy Pope sees this ...

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    You are great! Thank you so very much, if you ever need IT related help, dont hesitate to ask!

    But its still showing all names only this time they overlap each other

    Thats cool, some dark magic on it and it works, anyway all the 0:00 are still visable in the chart, they are overlapping the other real data,
    Im also trying to move, when i create a new J101, to D101, same as K101 to E101. This to make it a little bit more compact. I believe when i need more rows, i can just insert them and the rows is formula will correct the formulas.

    Im so graitfull for this!


    EDIT: I Reacreated the chart and it seems to work now.

    Re: Chart for counting how much time spend on customer

    I have a similar problem, but I don't need a chart. The Sumif function seems to work until you get too many iterations. It was working without the F4 adding the $ signs, but quit and after I added those because I saw it in this thread, it still doesn't work for the B column category with a lot of iterations, but still works for the category with fewer iterations.
