    Sales analytics

    hi,

    I have two columns. one with items sold, second with dates in which these items were sold. many of the sells in both columns are identical. I need to get a formula that counts a dividing result of total sales number per number of weeks.

    for example:

    NAME WEEK NUMBER

    ITEM 1----------------2
    ITEM 2----------------2
    ITEM 1----------------3
    ITEM 3----------------2
    ITEM 2----------------2

    RESULT:
    ITEM 1 = 1
    ITEM 2 = 2
    ITEM 3 = 1

    Re: Sales analytics

    so you have 1 column, which lists sales; such as

    Column 1
    16 " pipe
    hammer
    wrench
    mallet

    Column 2 (sold on)
    6/5/11
    6/5/11
    6/6/11
    6/7/11

    Is this correct?

    and you want to know how many total sales you have made, per business week?

    Re: Sales analytics

    hi, not exactly. The outcome which I need to get is to find the item that has the highest average sale in a specific time range.
    For example: I sold 5 items of Product 1 in time range of 2 weeks; and 5 items of Product 2 in time ranege of 1 week. the Product 2 is the item I would need to focus on.
    result I would like to get is as below:

    - Product 1 = 2,5 (number of items / number of weeks)
    - Product 2 = 5 (ditto)

    the highest result, the better... the problem I face, is that I sell hundreds of items and products per day and I need to find a method to get this final result in a pivot table

    many thanks
