    Question Looking to match transactions, in order to work out variances seperately

    Ok so this is really hard to explain what I am trying to do here but I'll give it a shot.

    What I am trying to do here is match each of these values (Amount in doc. curr.) whether they are a plus or a minus, and give them a unique identifier (Transaction Number) if the values are the same. Then these values would be added together on the basis of their identifier seperately, like below.

    The idea here is that the transactions are linked if they equal each other (or a reversal of the value) and if I can seperate them like the image above, I can see where there are discrepancies. Is there a formula that will carry this function out? Essentially, I'm looking for the formula to be within the "Transaction Number" column.

    Any help here would be greatly appreciated, as there are some with hundreds of transactions and it would take an age to match them manually.

    Many thanks!

    Unless you post an Excel sheet, it is unlikely that you will get a working solution.

    Assuming your transaction number heading is in A1 in A5 write:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    in A6 array formula (commit with Ctrl+Shift+Enter not just Enter):
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    and copy down

    once you have assigned transaction number, summing can be done with either Pivot Table or simple SUMIF

    Thanks for the reply Kaper. Would you be able to give me the formula that I would use in relation to these cell/row numbers used in the above screenshot?

    Thanks again for your help.
