How to create a table for baseline sales?

[DrBacon]

Hello everyone, long time no post!

I have a situation, which I would think can be solved rather simply, but I can't figure out a way to do it.

I have several POS systems and how much they are able to sell. We also have the knowledge of how much volume we do every weekday, every month that looks like this:

And we have a table that has how much a POS can sell in a given month:

So what I need the table to do, is if say we are in June, and it is a Sunday, 6.3% of the volume will be consumed that day, then 7.39% on Monday and so on. I have tried doing this in the Data Model, but I can seem to connect them. I would think that I needed a table that has the POSs and all dates of the month, for example POS1 Jun1 amount 1, POS1 Jun2 amount2, and so on. Any ideas on how to do this?

you can use a grid lookup to do that -
and bring back the % then apply that to the monthly sales per POS

so to get the %
=INDEX($B$2:$H$13,MATCH(K$1,$A$2:$A$13,0),MATCH(K$2,$B$1:$H$1,0))

NOTE - i have used text entries for the month and day - NOT using dates and formatting to just show the Month , or Day ,

K3:L3	K3	=INDEX($B$2:$H$13,MATCH(K$1,$A$2:$A$13,0),MATCH(K$2,$B$1:$H$1,0))

now you can apply that to the POS

Note: Images are difficult to see , and also requires that I input all the data myself, which means I may make an error, which is very time consuming, and from my point of view less likely to get a response, if a complicated spreadsheet. Plus we cannot see any of the formulas used.

Therefore -

A SMALL sample spreadsheet, around 10-20 rows, would help a lot here, with all sensitive data removed, and expected results mocked up and manually entered, with a few notes of explanation.

This will possibly enable a quicker and more accurate solution for you.

MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data and will allow us to copy/paste your sample data into our Excel spreadsheets, saving a lot of time.

OR if you cannot get XL2BB to work, or have restrictions on your PC

then put the sample spreadsheet onto a share

I only tend to goto OneDrive, Dropbox or google docs , as I'm never certain of other random share sites and possible virus.
Please make sure you have a representative data sample and also that the data has been desensitised, remember this site is open to anyone with internet access to see - so any sensitive / personal data should be removed

Make sure you set any share or google to share to everyone
