I'm making a time-spending tracker based on the work I do every hour of the day.
Now, suppose I have 28 types of work listed in my tracker (which I also have to increase from time to time), and I have about 8 significance values that I have decided to relate to these 28 types of work, predefined.
I want that, as soon as I enter a type of work in cell 1 - I want the adjacent cell 2 to get automatically populated with a significance value (from a range of 8 values) that is pre-definitely set by me.
Every time I input a new or old occurrence of a type of work, the adjacent cell should automatically get matched with its relevant significance value & automatically get populated in real-time.
I know how to do it using IF, IFS, and IF_OR conditions, but I feel that based on the ever-expanding types of work & significance values, the above formulas will be very big, complicated, and repetitive in the future. I feel there's a more efficient way to achieve it. Also, I don't want it to be selected from a drop-down list.
Guys, please help me out with the most efficient way to handle this. TUIA :)
Also, I've added a snapshot and a sample sheet describing the problem.
Sample sheet
XLOOKUP() may work. Try-
=XLOOKUP(D2,A2:A,B2:B)
Or FILTER() function like-
=FILTER(B2:B,A2:A=D2)
You can use this formula for a whole column:
=INDEX(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C14:C,A2:B9,2,0)))
Adapt the ranges to your actual tables in order to include in the second argument all the potential values and their significances
This is the formula, that worked for me (for anybody's reference):
I created another reference sheet, stating the types of work & their significance. From that sheet, I'm using either vlookup, filter, xlookup.Using gforms for inputting my data.
=ARRAYFORMULA(IFS(ROW(D:D)=1,"Significance",A:A="","",TRUE,VLOOKUP(D:D,Reference!$A:$B,2,0)))
I have a dataset with fields targeted and opens and I need to add calculated field opens per targeted which essentially means doing simple devision of those 2 values.
My calculated field is as follows
{opens}/{targeted}
but then displaying simple table with values they are completely incorrect
If I try any other operator like + * etc calculations are correct.
I'm completely out of ideas on how to debug this. I've simplified the dataset to just columns of targeted and opens, can't get any simpler.
Had the same problem, I fixed it by wrapping the columns with the sum() function. Like this:
sum({opens})/sum({targeted})
I think you need to make AWS understand that you are working with float numbers.
1.0*{opens}/{targeted}
if still not working try also
(1.0*{opens})/({targeted}*1.0)
it should give you the desired output (not tested, let me know if it doesnt work)
I'm trying to nest an IF function inside a vlookup to filter data based on a cell in another sheet.
The ideal functionality would be for the cell to return data if it meets a specific criteria otherwise leave it blank.
This is what I have so far:
=IFERROR(vlookup(E2,IF('internal_all[Paste Here]'!H3="Indexable",'internal_all[Paste Here]'!A:AB,""),28,0))
Currently, it doesn't work but instead I get an error "VLOOKUP equates to an out of bounds range".
Any help would be much appreciated.
Here's a copy of my gsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13mcOOHIP6-YQKOhE_LHnmu3-7bSNKzvCSTVZ5BnTxPA/edit#gid=0
Here's an example of the error I'm running into:
If I understand your question correctly...Then all you would need to change is where you put the if. Including it in the Vlookup will mess with the size of range ie. A:AB has a size of 28 but "" has a size of 0. I would also change your formula to an array so you don't have 6000+ formulas calculating. Finally, I would add an array_constrain to stop the array at the end of your dataset. Here is a working example:
=Array_Constrain(ArrayFormula(IF('internal_all [Paste Here]'!B2:B="Indexable",vlookup(E2:E,'internal_all [Paste Here]'!A2:AB,28,0),"")),CountIf(A2:A,"<>"),1)
I also included that formula in H2 of your "internal links point to canonicalised URLs" tab. Good luck!
Edit:
After looking at the setup again, this updated formula should work.
=Array_Constrain(ArrayFormula(if(VLOOKUP(E2:E,'internal_all [Paste Here]'!A:B,2)="Indexable",vlookup(E2:E,'internal_all [Paste Here]'!A2:AB,28,0),)),CountIf(A2:A,"<>"),1)
Also, here is an updated Indexability formula for column G
=Array_Constrain(ArrayFormula(IFERROR(vlookup(G2:G,'internal_all [Paste Here]'!A:B,2,0))),CountIf(A2:A,"<>"),1)
I'm trying to write a code for a fairly huge dataset (3m observations) which has been segregated into smaller groups (ID). For each observation (described in the table below), I want to create a cumulative sum of a variable "Value" for all observations ranked below me, subject to condition of the lower ranked observation equals mine.
[
I want to write this code without using loops, if there is a way to do so.
Could someone help me?
Thank you!
UPDATE:
I have pasted the equation for the output variable below.
UPDATE 2:
The CSV format of the above table is:
ID,Rank,Condition,Value,Expected output,,
1,1,30,10,0,,
1,2,40,20,0,,
1,3,20,30,0,,
1,4,30,40,10,,
1,5,40,50,20,,
1,6,20,60,30,,
1,7,30,70,80,,
2,1,40,80,0,,
2,2,20,90,0,,
2,3,30,100,0,,
2,4,40,110,80,,
2,5,20,120,90,,
2,6,30,130,100,,
2,7,40,140,190,,
2,8,20,150,210,,
2,9,30,160,230,,
Equation
If I understand correctly, for each combination of ID and Condition, you want to calculate a running sum, ordered by Rank, of the variable Value, excluding the current observation. If that is indeed your goal, the following untested code might set you on the path to a solution
sort ID Condition Rank
// be sure there is a single observation for each combination
isid ID Condition Rank
// generate the running sum
by ID Condition (Rank): generate output = sum(Value)
// subtract out the current observation
replace output = output - Value
// return to the original order
sort ID Rank
As I said, this is untested, because my copy of Stata cannot read pictures of data. If your testing shows that it is imperfect and you cannot resolve the problem yourself, providing your sample data in a usable format will increase the likelihood someone will be able to help.
Added in edit: Corrected the isid command.
I have a scenario where in need to compare the amount and if they don't match ABORT the session.
I have done the below logic, but some how the ABORT function is not working.(Error says has an error evaluating variable column)
this is what i did:
i have 3 source columns DLY_NET_AMT_DUE, WKLY_INVCD_AMT, INV_CHARGE_AMOUNT. All are inputs. I used a variable port and said
v_INV_CHARGE_AMOUNT=iif((DLY_NET_AMT_DUE=WKLY_INVCD_AMT) and
(WKLY_INVCD_AMT=INV_CHARGE_AMOUNT),'Amount Balanced',ABORT('Amount Not Balanced'))
o_INV_CHARGE_AMOUNT=v_INV_CHARGE_AMOUNT
Could you guys please help me where am i going wrong.
Please paste the exact error message.
If possible, share the transformation screenshot
What is the datatype of v_INV_CHARGE_AMOUNT port? Is it possible that it's decimal and the error is caused by trying to put Amount Balanced as value?
Did you try to run debugger and do the Evaluate expression?
