I am wanting to extract the sales data by month for just the 2014/2015 financial year (Apr-14 to Mar-15) from the attached sheet. Sounds easy enough, but if you have a look at the sheet it's not. I can get the sales figures easily enough but I need the SKU number with it and that is where I am getting stuck.
I need to do this monthly and there are about 40 sheets like this (one for each supplier).
The sheet itself cannot be changed around permanently (the guy who created it has it as read only access to everybody but him) but as it is read only any extra columns to be added etc is not an issue.
The sheet is pretty much as the original with the product names changed and customer and supplier names removed. This spreadsheet has been developed over some time and there is a lot of variation in the sheet to be wary of. I have tried to build in some of that variation with the sample data. There are 2 markets shown (NZ and Aus) and the same description can be used in each market but the SKU's are different (the Aus SKU is the NZ SKU with an 'a' at the end). Product names can vary between different parts of the same sheet, there are varying numbers of years of data per product, hidden grouped rows etc. The products with '???' as a SKU number are fine - they are products we are developing and will sell, but the SKU has not yet been created. I can deal with those as they arise.
Please help me find a way to do this that's not going to take me half a day per month.
