    Question How to use /identify the most recent data in a excel spreadsheet?

    Hello friends,

    I have a dataset that receives updated projections for the upcoming months, the problem is that I can't figure out a way to create a summary only using the last submission.

    We have multiple offices and I may have more than one submission for each office in a given month. I want to use only the most recent submission.

    I attached a data sample.

    Thanks for helping.

    Many ways to do this.

    One of the simplest is to add two columns:
    Col I to convert the date into a useable format
    Cell I2:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Col J to identify if it's the most recent.
    Cell J2, enter
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    and copy down. You can then add a filter to this column to only show TRUE

    Note these formulas may not work if you are using an older version of excel
