Change in output generated by a macro

[Valentino]

Hi everyone,

in another thread, @johnnyL has helped me tremendously by developing a code which regularly checks whether certain conditions in a spreadsheet have been fulfilled.
Every 10 minutes, the macro writes the outcome of these checks to a separate outputsheet, which alerts me to changes in conditions.
What i still would like to achieve, is to change the current notification generated by this macro.
- Current notification: "(1) Asset10" --> (indicating that Asset10 changed from "0" to "1", see blue cell in picture below)
- preferred notification: "(1) Asset10 Completed" --> (so add the value from column B in Sheet1 highlighted in yellow to the notification).

Below please find the code that i have been working with and attached a picture of Sheet1 in the workbook containing the value to be added (in yellow) .

I have been trying to adjust the code myself based on some solutions i found on this forum and elsewhere, but have struggled as after I've changed the code is bugged (my inexperience)
Would someone be able to help me to adjust the code?

Many thanks for thoughts!

Valentino

@Valentino The code you submitted does not produce the 'Current notification' that you mention.

So, if we rewind back to your previous request in the previous thread that I suggested you open a new thread, Excel alerts post #33.

Try the following code for that:

'       conditions changed to '1' or '-1'

[Valentino]

@Valentino The code you submitted does not produce the 'Current notification' that you mention.

So, if we rewind back to your previous request in the previous thread that I suggested you open a new thread, Excel alerts post #33.

Try the following code for that:

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()

'   V2.0
'
'   1st 10 minute refresh will create the DestinationSheet if it doesn't exist & will save the conditions column results to create a base line to compare to.
'   All other 10 minute refreshes will compare the current condition columns to the previous condition columns and display the Assets that had
'       conditions changed to '1' or '-1'
'
'   Check the lines at the top of the script that end with ' <---
'       Those lines are the lines that may need to be changed to reflect your particular setup.

As I mentioned in the other thread, it requires different code to accomplish what you asked for there.

Hi Johnny,

thanks for the answer! I thought in the opening post i copied the code as i'm using it currently, but if not sorry for that
I tried the code immediately, and i can see that the notification indeed has changed: now it gives back eg "Asset 3: Plus-Condition2".
Are you saying that based on this code, it is not possible to give back eg ""Asset 3: Plus-Completed"? so "Completed" instead of "Condition2" where "Completed" is the value in column B of the row where the change has occurred?

Thanks again,
Valentino

 

[johnnyL]

That is certainly doable. My question to you would be why do you want it to show 'completed'? Wouldn't that be assumed if it is triggering a change?

You are basically creating a list of assets that show as completed in the column B and then you want to show 'Completed' in every asset in the completed list?

 

[Valentino]

That is certainly doable. My question to you would be why do you want it to show 'completed'? Wouldn't that be assumed if it is triggering a change?

You are basically creating a list of assets that show as completed in the column B and then you want to show 'Completed' in every asset in the completed list?

Good question, which indeed needs explanation. The value in column B is not always equal to "Completed", its not a constant but dynamic/ a formula (other statusses are "semi-completed", "started" and "Prospect").

 

[johnnyL]

So ??? You would want any value other than "0" in column B to be counted as a change if it was previously "0"?

 

[Valentino]

So ??? You would want any value other than "0" in column B to be counted as a change if it was previously "0"?

I realise now i made it not clear again, apologies... see attachment to the opening post - columns c and d contain conditions, whenever these change from "0" into "-1" or "1" that constitutes the trigger --> a notification is put on the TenMinutes sheet. Column b is not a trigger but only a specification of why a condition is triggered in column c or d, and i would like that to be included in the notification.
Hope is more clear now, if not let me know, thanks...

 

[johnnyL]

Ok so you mentioned in the attachment you would like to see '(1) Asset 10 Completed' as an example. What does the '(1)' represent? The value from column E?

 

[Valentino]

Ok so you mentioned in the attachment you would like to see '(1) Asset 10 Completed' as an example. What does the '(1)' represent? The value from column E?

Correct, columns c and d are 2 conditions that are combined (by means of a formula) in column E - once one of the conditions change from "0" to "1" or "-1", this changed value is reflected in column E and triggers a notification. Indeed then the (1) or (-1) in the notification represents the changed value in column e.
Column b does not have any dependents btw.

 

[johnnyL]

Apologies for forgetting about this thread.

It is way past my bedtime, but I put the following together that I think does what you want, at least it does at this late hour of my thinking:

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()

'   1st 10 minute refresh will create the DestinationSheet if it doesn't exist & will save the conditions column results to create a base line to compare to.
'   All other 10 minute refreshes will compare the current condition columns to the previous condition columns and display the Assets that had
'       conditions changed to '1' or '-1'
'
'   Check the lines at the top of the script that end with ' <---
'       Those lines are the lines that may need to be changed to reflect your particular setup.

I redid some of the code, so hopefully it didn't go sideways in my late hour thinking.

Let us know how it goes.
