    Updating information from one changing spreadsheet to another

    Hello,

    I have a manpower budget that lists the number of employees allowed in each area and shift. I have set up a payroll report that I run in ADP that shows the actual people in each area/shift.

    I would like to be able to run this report periodically and paste it in a workbook that will take the "actual" number of employees per area and shift and insert it in another tab that will compare those "actual" numbers to "Budget" numbers.

    I have included a sample for reference.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Dumb question, where can I go to look up what my current version is?

    Re: Updating information from one changing spreadsheet to another

    Can you explain to me how this works? Also, the report I will be inserting from time to time from ADP may have the numbers in different locations each time due to the hiring and terminating of people if that makes sense. Will that matter?

    Two ways:

    1. Launch the app and read what it says on the splash screen.
    2. Go to File | Account and see what it tells you there.

    To the formula:

    =IF(A2="","",COUNTIFS('ADP Manpower Report'!$A$2:$A$27,'Manpower Budget'!A2,'ADP Manpower Report'!$B$2:$B$27,'Manpower Budget'!B2))

    If cell A2 is blank, return a blank.

    If not, count the rows where column A = A2 AND column B = B2.
