Hi!

First of all im super new here, so thanks in advance for any help! Normally i would google my self out and figure out a solution but this seemed to conditional in order to find a solution myself.

I've created a roster for my company, and want to create a small overview card of who is working today and on which project. In order to be dynamic, im creating a date picker which should be the base of the variable.

As you can see attached, from G8 till wherever(im creating new months every month;)) the working date is listed. In C8 till E13 i've created a small overview card with the people working on that day. However the formula is now static on Row R as you can see in the formula here.

=FILTER(P9:P50;C9=R9:R50)

I want to make it dynamic, where it by default sets todays day and searches for the hit in the roster, then changes the ranges dynamiccaly based on that day. (1-10 is row R9:R50, 2-10 is S9:S50 etc etc)

See dummy file attached.

Thanks in advance!

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Hi and welcome to MrExcel

I propose the following to you. You can put the date to filter in cell C7, if you leave it blank, then the formula considers Today's date.

Put the formula in cell C10 and copy it to the right.
The formula assumes that the dates are in cells J9 through AX9.
Excel Formula:
=FILTER($H$10:$H$50,INDEX($J$10:$AX$50,0,MATCH($C$7,$J$9:$AX$9,0))=IF(C$9="",TODAY(),C$9))

Let me know the result and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Another option, assuming your dates in row 9 are valid Excel dates.

Hey Dante,

Thanks in advance for your help and input. When i copy your code and set the values to the correct cells, it looks like this:
=FILTER($P$9:$P$50, INDEX($R$9:$ZZ$50, 0, MATCH($C$6, $R$8:$AX$8, 0)) = IF(C$6 = "", TODAY(), C$6))

Basics:
Date = C6
Formula should be in c10(unchanged)
Range of date cells is R9 till the end of the sheet (it should automatically expand when i add new months in the roster)

My original static but functioning formula(hard selected Colum R):
=FILTER(P9:P50;D9=R9:R50)

The output it gives is CALCULATE?

Thanks!

If i copy your work, i get this reply. I've never worked with "LET" so im directly stuck :D

This is the corrected formula, put it in C10 and copy to the right:
=FILTER($P$9:$P$50,INDEX($R$9:$ZZ$50,0,MATCH(IF($C$6="",TODAY(),$C$6),$R$8:$ZZ$8,0))=C$9)​

I explain to you how the formula is made up, so that you can make changes to it if you require it.

Range of cells to be filtered
FILTER($P$9:$P$50

This range is the dynamic one, so it goes from R9 to the last column with data (ZZ) and the last row with data (50)
$R$9:$ZZ$50

In this cell you are going to put the date that you want to filter or if you leave it empty, then the formula considers today's date.
IF($C$6="",TODAY(),$C$6​

Row 8 is where all the dates are found.
$R$8:$ZZ$8​

Row 9 is where the key is, starting at C9
C$9​

And an image to see where the data is:

Note: when you post an image it must show the row numbers and column letters. Or better yet, if you can put in a sample of data using the XL2BB tool.

I can't explain that one - it works fine for me - unless it is some regional setting thing.

All I can suggest is try changing all occurrences of ffilt to something else. e.g.
Excel Formula:
=LET(_ff,DROP(FILTER($S$9:$AB$19,$S$9:$AB$9=$C$9),1),DROP(FILTER(HSTACK($P$10:$P$19,_ff),_ff=E$10),,-1))

Yea i figured, i was a bit confused on why it wouldnt allow me to post it as a reply instead of in a new thread but i figured that out. I got it working, it broke on regional settings at first but when i changed that to mine(EU uses ; instead of , ) it works. Great man much appreciated!

Last question, promise!

I got everything fully up and running. However, the 3 counta fields(the big highlighted ones on the left) include the index formula if it gives no results as you can see below. I tried other formula's but i didnt get it fully functional.
