[TD="colspan: 12"]I've been tasked with making a very basic MRP and hope someone can help me automate it a bit.
Our products only go down one level, so I think it's doable, but the way I have made it is very
cumbersome and wondered if there is a formula I could use to help automate it. What I am currently entering takes hours.
I need to have a sum that looks at the productcode which is a component code. (240SSD)

[TD]240 SSD[/TD]
[TD]??Required Sum??[/TD]

</tbody>[/TABLE]
The sum then looks at another work sheet to see what finished product that component goes into.

Then it multiplies the component quantity in finished product * sales order demand (for that month) for the finished product.

[TD]5[/TD]

[TD]Mini PC[/TD]
[TD]5[/TD]
[TD]10[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
So the final formula is something like
=(SHEETA!C2*SHEETB!B2)+(SHEETA!C3*SHEETB!B3)+(SHEETA!C4*SHEETB!C4)
This works for now, but it requires me going through and selecting each cell which takes hours, then if products are added or i miss one
there could easily be an error and I wouldn't know about.
Its a tall order, but if anyone knows a way I can join this up and automate it using an advanced vlook up or sumifs etc, that would be huge!
Thanks
