    Question Nested IF formula that can rewrite another cell

    I have no idea whether this will end up being a formula or a Macro, but any help would be appreciated:
    I have an inventory sheet and am attempting to create a running log. The idea being that there are 2 columns: On hand Inventory [A]; and Deduction [B].
    The idea is that A changes based off the value of B but retain the new value, and B will reset itself to 0. So, if Someone removes something from Inventory, They put the number they are removing in B and A will update itself to subtract whatever the value is, and B will reset itself to 0.

    I think of this as a looped formula, but I've found that's not the term for what I'm hoping to achieve. Can anyone think of a possible solution to this?

    Thanks for helping.

    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook, the workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

    If needed supply a before and after sheet in the workbook so the person helping you can see what you are trying to achieve.

    Doing this will ensure you get the result you need!
