Hi all,
I have a 2 column table which contains customer names and order values. As customers place more orders, they are added to the table, therefore I have multiple entries for each customer.
Can someone advise on how I can retrieve the customer name and cumulative total for that has the customer that has the highest cumulative value of all orders?

Example below, what I want to return is "Customer A - 900.00"

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]A[/TD]
[TD]B[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]1[/TD]
[TD]Customer A[/TD]
[TD]100.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2[/TD]
[TD]Customer B[/TD]
[TD]200.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]3[/TD]
[TD]Customer C[/TD]
[TD]300.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]4[/TD]
[TD]Customer A[/TD]
[TD]200.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]5[/TD]
[TD]Customer C[/TD]
[TD]50.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]6[/TD]
[TD]Customer A[/TD]
[TD]400.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]7[/TD]
[TD]Customer B[/TD]
[TD]100.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]8[/TD]
[TD]Customer A[/TD]
[TD]200.00[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
Ok, got ya.

Here's one way.

in C1
=SUMIF(A$1:A$8,A1,B$1:B$8)
and copy down

in D1
=INDEX(A1:A8,MATCH(MAX(C$1:C$8),C$1:C$8,0),1)

in E1
MAX(C1:C8)

D1 and E1 contain Customer name and highest cumulative total.

I can't quickly see a way of doing this in one go.

Something you should consider too:
What happens if there's more than one customer with the highest cumulative total?
This solution will only list the first one.
