I want to tally my sheet
Hi guys...
I am looking for advice as to which function(s) to use he I have a sheet where I keep track of time put toward job tasks at work. I look up the job number from a sheet where I keep said numbers. I jump around from task to task at work and from day to day. So all of the time put towards a single job number may be listed on the sheet across several rows throughout a given day or through the week. My per row (per job entry) time tally works fine, and my per column (per day) tally works fine, all contained on that one sheet. I want to make a final tally sheet that queries all the entries made in a given day (column) for each job number listed in my leftmost column, where the duplicate entries would be so that I end up with a per job tally that shows all hours worked on each job each day. So I need to sum the hours with a for each type thing. I can build the sheet/table, but I want to know what the best function is to query my task tracking sheet. So, I will make seven tally sheets, one for each day, that lists only the jobs worked on in that day, and its totals. My current sheet has no problem with my overall daily tally or my weekly tally, but I have yet to construct the daily tally sheets. |

I want to tally my sheet
That is what I am looking for. Thank you.
The "table" created needs to list the jobs and would be of a dynamic size as each week would have a different length set of jobs worked on. Is this better done on a pivot table or via a macro that compiles the data when 'run'? Like a 'for each instance of...do...' kind of thing? I currently save this workbook with a date coded file name at the end of each week, so I could make a workbook that queries which workweek I am interested in, and compiles the finished labor tallies at runtime. I am thinking this is what I really want, so that each saved book each week is as small as it can be. I make a workbook that has the job listing for the drop down job list, and the daily tally sheets can be in that workbook with a cell for the week ending date to be used to query the right week worked workbook. |

I want to tally my sheet
OK... Here is what I want, and it boils down to me not knowing how to handle the test code, not so much the tally. I have a sheet with data that starts with a text column that has job numbers in it. The sheet is a fixed length, meant to be printed out on a weekly basis, so there are always blank lines on the sheet that have no data in this first aforementioned column. Job Number Mon Time Start Mon Time End Tues Start Tues End TextSamp1 06:00 08:30 TextSamp2 08:30 10:30 Meal 10:30 11:30 TextSamp1 11:30 15:30 TextSamp2 15:30 17:30 With several blank lines following these I want to do a "For Each" non-blank example of job number, SumProduct the time accruals, skipping the blank lines, and all the time locations have NA in them when there is no data. With a result that lists the job numbers worked in that day, and the total time put toward that job number. Job Number Mon Time Total TextSamp1 6.5 Hrs TextSamp2 4.0 Hrs Meal 0.5 Hrs I know this is easy, but I just cannot find an example for what I want. I will do it on a separate tally sheet, and perhaps even from a different workbook where I query the date coded file names as: task_track_041809.xls for the week of 04-18-09. It would seem that I could do it on an included sheet macro free, but the separate workbook would require VB code, but I am not sure. They both might need it to perform the test criteria cycling. Thank you for any assistance in this endeavor. On Sun, 19 Apr 2009 15:05:57 -0700, Mr. Haney wrote: You gonna help or what???
