Calendar Help

[mgc77]

I am trying to find out if it is possible to create an auto-populating calendar based on the first Monday of the month, or the third Tuesday of the month, etc. The calendar I need to create is for a vehicle inspection monthly calendar. I have 6 vehicles each day of the month that need to be inspected. To keep things simple for employees, their vehicle are inspected on the same day each month (1st Monday, 2nd Monday, 3rd Thursday, etc.) I am not sure that this is even possible, but wanted to check. It would save me tons of work to be able to input that vehicle 1 is inspected every 1st Monday of each month, and have Excel automatically put that vehicle on the first Monday of each month.

Thanks!

like this?
vehicle 1 = first monday
vehicle 2 = second monday
vehicle 3 = third thursday

1/07/2018	
2/07/2018	Vehicle 1
3/07/2018	
4/07/2018	
5/07/2018	
6/07/2018	
7/07/2018	
8/07/2018	
9/07/2018	Vehicle 2
10/07/2018	
11/07/2018	
12/07/2018	
13/07/2018	
14/07/2018	
15/07/2018	
16/07/2018	
17/07/2018	
18/07/2018	
19/07/2018	Vehicle 3
20/07/2018	
21/07/2018	
22/07/2018	
23/07/2018	
24/07/2018	
25/07/2018	
26/07/2018	
27/07/2018	
28/07/2018	
29/07/2018	
30/07/2018	
31/07/2018	
1/08/2018	
2/08/2018	
3/08/2018	
4/08/2018	
5/08/2018	
6/08/2018	Vehicle 1
7/08/2018	
8/08/2018

formula in second column is

=IF(AND(QUOTIENT(DAY(A1)-1,7)=0,WEEKDAY(A1,2)=1),"Vehicle 1",IF(AND(QUOTIENT(DAY(A1)-1,7)=1,WEEKDAY(A1,2)=1),"Vehicle 2",IF(AND(QUOTIENT(DAY(A1)-1,7)=2,WEEKDAY(A1,2)=4),"Vehicle 3","")))

Yes, exactly. Except, I am going to be using a monthly calendar template that puts each month's calendar in a new sheet tab. Would these formulas work in a calendar format instead of the list format that you have shown?

Thanks so much for your help!

does your calendar template look something like this?

Jan 18
Sun	Mon	Tue	Wed	Thur	Fri	Sat
31	1	2	3	4	5	6
						
7	8	9	10	11	12	13
						
14	15	16	17	18	19	20
						
21	22	23	24	25	26	27
						
28	29	30	31	1	2	3

Yes, something like that

try change the formula to refer to the cell above it like this

	A	B	C	D	E	F	G
1	Sun	Mon	Tue	Wed	Thur	Fri	Sat
2	31	1	2	3	4	5	6
3		V. 1					
4	7	8	9	10	11	12	13
5		V. 2					
6	14	15	16	17	18	19	20
7					V. 3		
8	21	22	23	24	25	26	27
9							
10	28	29	30	31	1	2	3

so the formula in B3 would be

=IF(AND(QUOTIENT(DAY(B2)-1,7)=0,WEEKDAY(B2,2)=1),"V. 1",IF(AND(QUOTIENT(DAY(B2)-1,7)=1,WEEKDAY(B2,2)=1),"V. 2",IF(AND(QUOTIENT(DAY(B2)-1,7)=2,WEEKDAY(B2,2)=4),"V. 3","")))
