I have been trying to write a for each loop to go through each row in in one sheet (sheet 2) to remove duplicates in another sheet (sheet 1). I have had no luck researching either.
In sheet 1, I have a list of customer numbers in column B with the type of product they purchased in column c and the cost of that product in column d. In another sheet 2, I have a list of customers in column a and list of products in column b.
I have been trying to write a for each loop to go through each row in sheet 2 to check the customer number and product, find all the duplicates in sheet 1 with the same customer number and product, and deleting the row with the higher balance.
Sheet 1
A(Year) B(Customer #) C(Product Type) D(Cost)
1) 2015 100 A 1
2) 2015 100 A 2
Sheet 2
A(Customer #) B(Product Type)
1) 100 A
For example, if sheet 2 had 100 in column a and A in column b, it would delete row 2.
You could try using the remove duplicates option within excel, would that solve your problem? Or is Sheet 2 update to remove certain customer orders that you would also like to remove.
Edit: To expand on this. Take the list, sort it by customer and cost (low to high). Then if you click remove duplicates, you'll have the option to select what columns to use as a basis for removing duplicates, so obviously remove cost, and then it'll clear out all but the topmost row, which as now been sorted to be the lowest value.

I have three columns: in column A I have Suppliers, B has Order Dates and C has Types ("Merchant" and "FBA").
How do I populate another sheet in the same Google Sheets with the same three columns but only with rows that have "FBA" in column C?
I want them to auto-populate so when I add another row in Sheet1 where column C is "FBA", it will automatically add that row to the next available row in Sheet2. I'm guessing I use the Index formula but am unsure how to use it.
Please try something like:
=query(Sheet1!A:C,"where C ='FBA'")
I have a table with source data in columns Regions!A6:R553.
In Regions!A3:R3, I have formulas that pull specific information out of my data table in Regions!A6:R553 that I want copied to a different sheet.
Column A acts as my project name column, while column B holds ID numbers. In my case, there are multiple ID numbers per project.
I am looking for a script to filter and loop through all the unique order numbers in Column B one by one, then copy cells A3:R3 to RegionsSummary!A12:R12 for as many rows as there are unique order numbers (i.e, add rows to the table).
Here is a screengrab of my data sheet, "Regions":

Here is a screengrab of the empty template sheet "RegionsSummary":

Example: Assume there are 5 projects in my data sheet. I will filter the data using another macro to select Project_1. I would then like a command button to active a macro that will filter to the first order number in Column B, copy Regions!A3:R3 to RegionsSummary!A12:R12, then filter to the second order number in Project_1, and repeat the process. This should go on until all unique ID numbers have been filtered and looped through.
Here is a screengrab of what a final product should look like:

I would go with an easier solution than a Macro with certain constraints. I am not able to access your sheet, so I will make a sample excel.
STEPS:
Create a list of unique projects for a dropdown (COPY Regions!A5:A10000 to a new sheet > Data > Remove Duplicates) . Create the dropdown (Data Validation > List > Select Range) using Data Validation in "Example_Result" sheet- C7.
In "Regions", in Col S, put the below formula
=S6&"_"&COUNTIF($S$6:S6,S6)
Copy this formula down for the entire sheet or as long as you expect the sheet to grow
In "Example_Result", insert an index column (1 to 1000, in Col A if you expect each project to have 1000 or less order numbers) from A12 onwards.
Along the columns (B onwards) of Row 11 include the names of the variables from Regions (Assessment Project, Highway etc).
Insert the below formula in B12 to S1000 (depending on number of variables) of Example_Result:
=IFERROR(INDEX(Regions!$A$5:$S$10000,MATCH($C$7&"_"&A$12,Regions!$S$5:$S$10000,0),MATCH(B$11,Regions!$A$5:$H$5,0)),"")
I have a spreadsheet with over 600k rows. I need to extract data based on multiple criteria and grab only the latest change numbers of each.
So an item number may have multiple entries based on quarter start dates and desc codes because it's been revised several times in that quarter but I just want the most recent one (highest change number) and that row returned or marked in a new column to then filter out.
Hope that makes sense.
I have the following columns. Column A (Desc Code) which has 12 different codes in it, then Column B (Item Number several thousand), Column C (Period Begin, Start of the quarters dating back to 1998) and then a Column H (Change Number). I need to basically pull "Each" row containing the highest change number, for each Item Number in each Period it was available for each code.
So basically The change numbers vary depending on how many changes the Item Number had in the quarter.
And each time there was a change there is a change number for each Item Number for Each Desc Code (12 rows for each).
Thanks.
You lost me somewhere near paragraph 4 but let's simplify things. If you just had two columns -- Item Number and Change Number -- and you had a record for each change, you could just use Excel's subtotal feature: at each change in Item Number, show the MAX of Change Number.
Use the same logic for your situation. Create a new column that combines your "category" criteria (item & desc, or item & period, or whatever), sort by it, then subtotal against that new column and return MAX of Change Number.
Edit:
Item Period Change
100 1 1
100 1 2
100 1 3
100 2 1
100 2 2
I'm not sure if this is how your data looks but let's use it as an example (and's lets forget about Desc Code for now). If you want to find the latest change by item and period, create a new column by combining the Item and Period columns. For example, insert a column (C) and use the formula: =A2&"_"&B2. Now your data looks like this:
Item Period I&P Change
100 1 100_1 1
100 1 100_1 2
100 1 100_1 3
100 2 100_2 1
100 2 100_2 2
Now use Excel's subtotal feature (in the Data menu/ribbon, not the worksheet formula). Here's an example of what this looks like:
In your scenario, for the "At each change in" box, pick your new column (C), since that uniquely identifies the category you trying to identify (item AND period). "Use function" = Max. "Add subtotal to" = your Change Number column.
Click [OK] and Excel will add a new row with the maximum Change Number for each.
I am trying to figure out if there are any differences between a list of data with another. In order for a row of data to "match" with another row, the row must have the same values in their corresponding column. The rows themselves do not have to be in any particular order. In particular, I am dealing with a parts list, where there are part numbers, descriptions, etc. I am trying to figure out if any rows of data are different from rows of data from another list.
I found Compare two sheets using arrays, which may have the answer to my problem, but I am having trouble figuring out how to adapt to my code due to inexperience in Visual Basic.
I was able to get it to work for a single column of data, comparing one column of data from one sheet to another, but cannot get it to compare entire rows of data.
Here is an example of I want this to work:
Sheet 1 Sheet 2
Column 1 Column 2 Column 1 Column 2
Row 1 22a 33 11 11
Row 2 22a 33a 22a 33
Row 3 55 22b 55 23b
The code in the link will tell you what is not in sheet 1 but in sheet 2 and vice versa. In this example, I would like the code to tell me Sheet 1 Row 2 and Sheet 1 Row 3 are not in Sheet 2, and Sheet 2 Row 1 and Sheet 2 Row 3 are not in Sheet 1 (Sheet 1 Row 1 and Sheet 2 Row 2 match).
If that is ok by you, you can do it without VBA using the following formula:
={IF(IFERROR(MATCH(A1&"|"&B1;Sheet7!$A$1:$A$3&"|"&Sheet7!$B$1:$B$3;0);-1)=-1;"Unique";"")}
Assuming that each of your tables start in A1 (so that the tables with three entries span A1:B3), and entering this formula into C1 (and copying it down), press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER when entering the formula to create an array formula, this will show the word "Unique" in column C if the pair in that row on that sheet is not in any of the row-pairs on sheet 2.
You can then use conditional formatting to highlight unique rows, filter on the tables to include only unique rows, or some other way of doing what you need.
NOTE 1: I have entered my numbers in Sheet6 and Sheet7 instead of 1 and 2. The formula written above goes into Sheet6.
NOTE 2: My language use ; instead of , as function separator, so if yours use , you need to change that.
NOTE 3: You will need to expand the ranges Sheet7!$A$1:$A$3 and Sheet7!$B$1:$B$3 if your set grows (this will happen automatically if new rows are inserted in between the old ones). The best is still probably to create named ranges for each of the 4 columns, exchange the references with those, and manage the named ranges instead of the formulas.
NOTE 4: If your data set contains the character "|", you need to change that as well, to match some character that you for sure do not have there.
Alternatively you could in column C on each cheet enter (assuming first entry in C1)
=A1&"|"&B1"
and copy this down, then run the solution from your copied example using that C column instead of on A1 and B1.
I'm looking to generate a report to list the number of Cities/Towns that don't meet a certain criteria so on Sheet 2 I have an alphabetical list of all the cities/towns.
I want to do a look up/count if function to state if A2(Sheet 2) can be found anywhere in Column D on Sheet 1 then count it if the date in column L (sheet 1) matches the date in Cell $E$1 (sheet 2) and Column A in Sheet 1 is greater than zero.
I originally done this formula but it is returning an error.
=COUNTIFS(PickData!D:D,Sheet1!A2,PickData!L:L,Sheet1!$E$1,PickData!A:A,PickData!A:A>0)
Is there any other formulas that I'm currently not thinking of? Or is it possible to do this via VBA and it returns the value in to column B either True if it matches or False if it doesn't?
Thanks
Al
The problem with your previous formula is in the final criteria. Update to:
=COUNTIFS(PickData!D:D,Sheet1!A2,PickData!L:L,Sheet1!E2,PickData!A:A,">0")
