    Re: Help: matching data in sheet1 based on data on sheet2

    Hi oeldere

    Hope you could help me with the file below.

    In the spreadsheet, Column B shows Member and Column D shows departure date. Is there a formula to get the following:

    1. No. of repeat stays based on the departure date per member
    2. No. of repeat stays based on the departure date per member by year

    Many thanks again in advance.

    Re: Help: matching data in sheet1 based on data on sheet2

    Yes, that is possible.

    The pivot table put every unique member (in this case) in the row.

    If there are 15, there be shown 15 members.

    Just try in your on exemple.

    It is also possible to show (count of the members) a day.

    In that case you need to add a formula the extract the day from the data.

    And you can also count the min or max members per day.

    Its up to you (if the format is in table-form).

    Do you have questions, just ask.

    Off the record
    Notice my main language is not English.
    I would appreciate if you help me to improve my (written) English.

    Hi Oeldere

    Thanks! That you mentioned above are actually some of the things that I need to present in a report. My knowledge of excel is very limited haha. Any help from you is very much appreciated.

    On a side note, your english is perfect to me! English is not my native language too

    Anyhow, do you have skype or any messenger ID? It is easier to communicate that way. If your not comfortable, conversation here is fine

    You get even better result if you learn the skills of the pivot table yourself (with the help of the forum).

    It would be appreciated if your shown us the result of your studie.

    Re: Help: matching data in sheet1 based on data on sheet2

    Thanks for the tip.

    I can actually play around with pivot tables. Its just that the membership no. are in thousands and they are mostly unique membership. So the dilemna I have, which for some maybe just a piece of cake to solve, is to actually get the no. of active members who have repetitive stays in our hotels. This will help me to basically formulate better strategies in targeting those members. This is helpful when I do market segmentation too.

    Re: Help: matching data in sheet1 based on data on sheet2

    The blue collumn in the pivot table are made by Excel.

    If you mean the blue collumn G and H, i made them and placed a formula in it.

    You will get the formula if you go to cell G2.

    Please add in the reply to whom (person) of to what (table / pivot table) you're replying.

    Re: Help: matching data in sheet1 based on data on sheet2

    refering to #14

    maybe you can categorise them in groups (e.g. 0- 10 / 10 - 50 / 50 -100).

    then you can get different market strategies for each group.

    I created a pivot table to filter membership no with repeat stay per year. Just another enquiry, is there a formula to compute the percentage of the repeat stay per year?

    Thanks

    I see you put the question unresolved again (thank you for that => probably it was my fault).

    Please give a list of wanted options. (see the #13)

    You get better help if you add your workbook youre working on (without confidential information).

    Then it is easier to analize your problem.

    Many thanks

    I have my pivot tables and let say that I was able to generate the numbers that I needed. Now I am creating another sheet that will serve as a dashboard, like a representation of the numbers I got from pivot table. Is there a way to link the total number to that sheet? Instead of creating the pivot table on the same sheet? I hope it makes sense haha Its like the number will auto populate to the fields in the dashboard sheet

    Hi oeldere

    Sorry, I forgot about that part. Please refer to the attached sample spreadsheet below.

    Desired Outcome:

    Sheet 1
    Due to the large amount of membership count in my pivot table, is there a formula to count the number of members who stayed once in 2010, then 2x and 3x and 4x and so forth in the same year. Same goes for 2011 and 2012.

    Would like also to have a count of:
    1. members who stayed in our hotel in 2010 and came back in 2011.
    1. members who stayed in our hotel in 2010, 2011 and 2012.

    Many thanks

    For the future, please use the last example to add new things into.

    In that way, we don't loose information (formula's) you could need for future use.

    I appreciate you added you value manualy.

    But I have no idea witch value you count (which collumn / under whitch conditions).

    post no. 36..

    Im sorry for the confusion, that value are all based in the pivot table. For column 2010, there's two 1 stay, then one 3 stay and one 5 stay. Thats how i come up with the value.

    The same thing for column 2011, theres five 1 stay and two 2stay. hope this clarified the confusion.

    No, it didn't clarified.

    The result of member 8815879251 are 1, 3 and 5.

    This means 1 stay in that year.

    It don't say anything about the amount of days they stayed. (that could be 30 days).

    Maybe i'm messing things up, but you know what you want to resolve.

    reply post no.38

    I understand where you are coming from.

    How I come up with the value is actually simple, for 2010 column, i just sum up all the 1x stay manually. If you notice in the pivot table, 8567232761 and 8910102045 are the two member who had one stay in that year.

    I think i confused you with the label no. of stay

    If you want to count the day, just use that value (number_nights) in the pivot table.
