Hi All,

Happy new year in Advance!!!

Friends i am stuck up on automating quantity allocation sheet in excels, the logic is as follows..

We have order sheet and ETA ( Expected Time of Arrival) sheet.

Once party place order we want to share ETA against each order but there might be cases that same material will have different ETAs based on Order PO qty.

Sharing example of two material codes, 1> Material code 953681 - our 1st PO order quantity for this code is 70 which will reach in WK2001 and second lot (100Qty) will reach WK2003.

Party order details available in Order Sheet, where we want formula to some order qty and start allocating qty based on PO order Qty, now here first order qty for 953681 is 70, so formula to some order qty and allocate these qty and put respective ETA number, now for rest of the order qty formula to go to second order qty which is 100 and start allocating qty, there may be more PO order Qty or orders formula should take care of all and in case party order is greater than PO order qty formula to keep allocating till order qty is there and for rest of the qty it should say " Will share ETA shortly"

I know this is bit confusing and Thought-provoking formula but I am confident our expert team will definitely help me in developing it for sure

There are some things that aren't clear here.

1. What is the connection between Order Quantity and Allocation Quantity? For example, in row 10 an order of 100 is allocated 100 but in row 22 an order of 300 is broken up into 2 parts of 82 and 218. How is that decided?

2. What does the ETA code mean and what is the criteria for allocating it? In other words, why do some orders get ETA code WK2001 and others get WK2002?

Assuming ...
a) the table on 'Order Sheet' is a formal Excel table (ListObject) and is ListObject(1) on that sheet
b) the 'Allocation Qty' and 'ETA' columns already exist in the table with headings only
c) there is sufficient 'Order PO Qty' in Sheet2 to cover any orders in 'Order Sheet'

... then you could try this macro with a copy of your workbook.

Note that I have used "|" to divide shared values in a row to avoid any confusion with thousand separator in the 'Allocation Qty' column.

VBA Code: 
Sub QtyAllocation()
  Dim d As Object
  Dim a As Variant, b As Variant, Mat As Variant
  Dim i As Long, OrderQty As Variant, AvailQty As Long
  Dim AllocQty As String
  
  With Sheets("Sheet2")
    a = Application.Index(.Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Value, Evaluate("row(2:" & .Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row & ")"), Array(1, 3, 4))
  End With
  Set d = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
  For i = 1 To UBound(a)
    d(a(i, 1)) = d(a(i, 1)) & "|" & a(i, 2) & "#" & a(i, 3)
  Next i
  With Sheets("Order Sheet").ListObjects(1).DataBodyRange
    a = Application.Index(.Value, Evaluate("row(1:" & .Rows.Count & ")"), Array(7, 9))
    ReDim b(1 To UBound(a), 1 To 2)
    For i = 1 To UBound(a)
      Mat = a(i, 1)
      AvailQty = Val(Mid(Split(d(Mat), "#")(0), 2))
      OrderQty = a(i, 2)
      AllocQty = IIf(AvailQty < OrderQty, AvailQty, OrderQty)
      b(i, 1) = IIf(Len(b(i, 1)) > 0, b(i, 1) & "|" & AllocQty, Val(AllocQty))
      AvailQty = AvailQty - AllocQty
      b(i, 2) = IIf(Len(b(i, 2)) > 0, b(i, 2) & "|", "") & Split(Split(d(Mat), "|")(1), "#")(1)
      If AvailQty > 0 Then
        d(Mat) = "|" & AvailQty & Mid(d(Mat), InStr(1, d(Mat), "#"))
      Else
        d(Mat) = Mid(d(Mat), InStr(2, d(Mat) & "|", "|"))
      End If
      OrderQty = OrderQty - AllocQty
      If OrderQty > 0 Then
        a(i, 2) = OrderQty
        i = i - 1
      End If
    Next i
    .Columns(10).Resize(, 2).Value = b
  End With
End Sub

Order Sheet

Hi Peter,

Wishing you a very very happy, prosperous and healthy year 2021!!!

Thanks a lot for your support, code is working fine for me but I have one challenge.

I are not sure about Order PO Qty and there might be cases where this qty is less than Order Quantity, in such scenario we want to put text in "Will share ETA shortly" in Order sheet ETA column.

Could you please help build logic.

Hi ExcelGzh,

Wish you very happy, prosperous and healthy new year !!!

Regarding ETA, ( Expected time of arrival ) - This is tentative information to our partners about spare availability or in another words info on spare when it be available.

WK2001 ( used just for example ) WK2001 means year2020 week 1 - so partner will be able to understand by when he will get material.

Regarding allocation and order qty relation -

Order Qty mentioned in Order Sheet - This is order placed by Partner
Order PO Qty mentioned in ETA Sheet - This is PO raised by me at Comaker -

I will be able to fulfill partner order once i get material from my comaker, in such scenario if partner order is 100 and i have raised PO for same material say 70 & 50 Qty, allocation should be done 70 qty from my 1st PO to vendor and 30 from second PO, also respective ETA should available in ETA column.

Hope this clarifies.
