    Question Calculate On Time Delivery

    Hi there

    I am trying to calculate our On Time Delivery. I want this as a simple percentage of jobs. I have got this running in the following way:

    Column M - Estimated Delivery dates
    Column N - Actual Delivery dates
    Column O - =IF(SUM(M2-N2)>0,1,0)

    Then I have calculated On Time Delivery as: =SUM((SUM(O2:O252))/(COUNTA(N2:N252)))

    This seems to work fine. My problem is, if we enter a date in Estimated without a corresponding Actual date, the formula for Column O fills out anyway and improves our On Time Delivery Percentage. How can I set this up so that the formula doesn't calculate if there is no data in Column N?

    Any help much appreciated

    Thanks,

    James

    Re: Calculate On Time Delivery

    =Sumproduct(--(N2:N252<>""),O2:O252)/COUNTA(N2:N252)

    I'd be inclined to alter Column O calculation in the first instance

    Then OnTime would simply be:

    In your existing approach it seems same day delivery is not treated as OnTime - if it should be change M2>N2 to M2>=N2

    Re: Calculate On Time Delivery

    I would differentiate between the state of shipments in column N by using a default label like "pending" rather than a blank prior to entering a delivery date. Then the formula in column O could distinguish between completed and pending orders like this:

    =IF(N1="pending","in transit",IF(N1<M1,"on time","late"))

    To calculate the average rate of on time deliveries you could then refer only to the cells that have "on time" or "late" in them -- ignoring the "in transit" cells.

    =COUNTIF(O1:O252,"on time")/(COUNTIF(O1:O252,"on time")+COUNTIF(O1:O252,"late"))
