Hello,

I have a table with two columns and many rows, where the first column has some repeated items and the second columns have numbers. Let's say:

ColumnAColumnB
D3
A1
B2
C0
A4
B5
C0

I need to obtain a unique list (top10 only) from column A where the sum of column B is above 0. I managed to extract the full list, but I'm having issues to filter the "0". I'm using the following:

=LET(y,ColumnA,x,UNIQUE( y),SORTBY(x,SUMIF(y,x,ColumnB),-1))

Two problems:
  1. If the ColumnA has less than 10 unique items, the formula returns the list of items, and then a row with a "0".
  2. I only need the top10 items where the sum is above 0. I tried to filter this out by using "INDEX(UNIQUE(same formulas as above),SEQUENCE(10))", which works for the top10, but I can't filter out the 0.
Any ideas?

Excel Facts

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.
How about
Excel Formula:
=LET(u,UNIQUE(FILTER(A2:A100,A2:A100<>"")),s,SORT(HSTACK(u,SUMIFS(B:B,A:A,u)),2,-1),TAKE(FILTER(s,INDEX(s,,2)>0),10,1))

You are a genius! I have no idea of how works many of the functions in this formula, but this 100% works.
