Hello everyone - this will probably be a wall of text post, so please bear with me. I will try to make it as concise and easy to understand as possible.
I do a monthly sales analysis for our 3 locations, wherein I pull the invoices issued every day for that month. The book I have attached shows what the raw data looks like when it is first exported, on Tab 1. I need to find the following informatio for each day:What I have been foolishly doing is inserting a row after every day's data (which in and of itself takes time) and then going in and manually inserting sum formulas for each required number, as seen on Tab 2. This involves continually highlighting each day's data, continually typing in formulas, and is all in all incredibly time consuming.
- Sum of Total
- Sum of Gross Profit
- Number of invoices per day
- Average transaction amount
I'm looking for a way to make these calculations almost autonomous; is there any way to use a series of IF functions or vlookups or macros to make this process quicker? I've only recently started to truly understand what Excel is capable of, and I've really been enjoying learning about what it can do.
If anyone has any knowledge and/or insight to share regarding my predicament, I would greatly appreciate it!! The thought of possibly not having to sludge through this process 3 times a month makes me so excited I could dance!
Many thanks in advance!
