    I just want to show only today sale.There previous should be hidden or store some where else.
    Whenever someone open Book1.xlsx he only see today entries.
    "This Month sales" should be updated dynamically.

    Re: Calculate Sales

    I think you could do a lookup / index and match to get today sales.

    However, I suppose you need to show how your database look like (the file where data are inputted).

    Depending on the format of this database, then could a formula be made to pull the sales data.

    My understanding is that, today sales normally are input or transferred into database at the end of the day or the next day.

    Is it correct to say that your request is to see the previous day sales from the database?

    @CRZU

    Yes, but in this case he has to say us where are his data and how looks like. Doesn't he?

    I believe that SUMIF(S) will do the job, but i can't be sure without more informations.

    Re: Calculate Sales

    You need first determine how your database format be look like.

    Before you can even start pulling the data.

    As different format will require different formula. For your case, it could be
    - SumIF
    - Sumproduct
    - Index & Match
    - HLookUp or VLookUp

    If you are going to build from scratch. Then you need to first find out how you are going to have the data input into the excel?

    Manually or system download?

    Manually, how often you want it to be input. System, I believe it could be real time data.

    Result is the goal, but deciding the first step is important to determine the path.

    Re: Calculate Sales

    @ edesign95

    Attached is one of the sample you could use. Normally, apart from volume, business would also look at the profit.

    In the summary page, I had set the formula so that you could also change the date instead of today date.

    This way, it will pull out the day and month and year of sales you required.

    For today sales result, you could simply set as today date then you right click the tab, move or copy, and select new book, then select all, copy and paste value in the new book.

    This file can then be sent to the sales person or whoever you want to send.

    If this help you, please click on the * at the right side =) to give me some rep.

    Re: Calculate Sales

    @ crzu.

    ...so that I got enough rep to post a profile picture.. haha..
    Reb has nothing to do with profile picture..

    Read the forum rules to learn when and how you'll get a profile picture.

    Once you have been registered for 60 days and posted 100 posts your user title will change from Registered User to Forum Contributor, you will be able to upload a non-animated avatar. When you get to 120 days registered and 200 posts, your title will change to Valued Forum Contributor and you will be able to upload an animated avatar. When your title reaches Forum Guru you can upload a profile picture, we will leave you to wonder how long you have to be registered and how many posts for that!.
