    Question can this be automated without VBA?

    Hi, I have this formula in a "Recap" sheet's B2 cell:

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    I can't share a sample with ease, too many sensitive data. But, as you can see/imagine, every month the workbook will receive a new YYYYMM sheet, and above formula will be updated with a new SUMIF('YYYYMM'!$C$2:$C$40;A2;'YYYYMM'!$J$2:$J$40)+ block. So, apart from the name of the sheets it takes info from (YYYYMM), the rest of the formula is static.

    I was just wondering if there is a way of "upgrading" the formula automatically, without VBA, e.g. "compacting" it.
    Thank you!

    If you could I would put the formula on each data sheet
    SUMIF($C$2:$C$40;A2;$J$2:$J$40) at needs to be referencing the cell on the sheet with the results on it

    then if the same cell is used in each data sheet you can then sum that cell between the sheets

    you may wish to add a blank sheet so you do not need to keep adjusting the formula if you but the new data sheets before this

    Hi! It would be more work to put the partial formula in each sheet, which atm has just data, but thanks for the hint

    But the formula could just be copied from an existing data sheet, which is quicker than manually editing the sheet to add the new sumif for the new sheet, so arguably it is less work!

    I do like Pepe's suggested solution to keep everything on one sheet although you need to make sure you type the names of the tabs accurately

    K1= new sheet name

    =SUMIF(INDIRECT("'"&$K$1&"'!$C$2:$C$40");A2;INDIRECT("'"&$K$1&"'!$J$2:$J$40"))
    Pl note
    Array formula should be confirmed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter keys together.
