Hi all,
I recorded a Macro to make the same task easier. problem is, there's a section to automatically filter then select a date. Obviously the macro will then always filter by the date i selected. Is there a way to make this always filter by the next day. IE, if today is 17/10/23, can the code automatically look for 18/10/23?
Thinking ahead for my next problem which will be on a Friday, it would need to look up the Monday as we don't work weekends. If that's too much to ask and someone can help with the first problem, that's great. Code below:

VBA Code:
Sub OpenSalesOrders()
'
' OpenSalesOrders Macro
'

'
    Columns("J:L").Select
    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
    Rows("1:1").Select
    Selection.AutoFilter
    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$U$335").AutoFilter Field:=13, Criteria1:= _
        "Delivery"
    Columns("A:B").Select
    Range("B1").Activate
    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Clear
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Add2 Key:= _
        Range("B1:B335"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption _
        :=xlSortNormal
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort
        .Header = xlYes
        .MatchCase = False
        .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Apply
    End With
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Clear
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Add2 Key:= _
        Range("B1:B335"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlDescending, DataOption _
        :=xlSortNormal
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort
        .Header = xlYes
        .MatchCase = False
        .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Apply
    End With
    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$S$335").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:= _
        "18/10/2023"
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Clear
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Add2 Key:= _
        Range("M1:M335"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption _
        :=xlSortNormal
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").AutoFilter.Sort
        .Header = xlYes
        .MatchCase = False
        .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Apply
    End With
    Range("B4").Select
End Sub

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
When posting vba code in the forum, please use the available code tags. It makes your code much easier to read/debug & copy. My signature block below has more details. I have added the tags for you this time. 😊

Hi Michael,

I changed it so that line now says ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$S$335").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=Date + 1, but it removed the date completely and hid the remaining dates. Basically had a plan page apart from the headers.

Another option (assumes dates are in column B)
VBA Code:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$S$335").AutoFilter 2, 3, 11

Hi Kevin, It's probably something i've done wrong but everything seems to disappear. I've put the code back to how i originally had it and it filters column B to 18th. Can i confirm the code i need to replace from my original table is the below and replace with your new code?

Excel Formula:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$S$335").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:= _
        "18/10/2023"

That tends to suggest that your 'dates' are actually text that look like dates. (do they left-align in the cell?) Add the following and see if it makes a difference:
VBA Code:
Dim mydate As String
mydate = Format(Date + 1, "dd/mm/yyyy")
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$S$335").AutoFilter 2, mydate

You are fantastic, worked a treat.
