Week to Date Totals

[rgillson3]

Our organization produces and distributes a "Daily Labor Report" that compares sales to labor for each day, and for the week.

Part of the report includes rows for Sales Forecast and Actual Sales numbers, which provides totals for the week.

I'd like to provide a "week to date" total for each row so we can see of we're progressing.

For example if we have enter actual sales amounts for Monday thru Wednesday, I'd like to see/show the sales forecast total for the those days days only. Currently, it only shows the entire week.

What's the best way to do that.

i would need more info on the data layout
how does it show the whole week, if not actuals are displayed /entered
or is it the forecast you are after

lets say your forecast is in ROW 5
and in ROW 6 is the actuals

F is the start of the Week and J is the end of week - 5days - just change the ranges to suit your data

=SUMIF(F6:J6,">0",F5:J5)
will only add up the forecast for where data in actuals is greater than 0 - Assuming you can never have a zero for the actuals

Thank you.

I knew it had to be something like that. But, I was doing something wrong in the formula.

Thank you again.

you are welcome
if you want to use blanks instead of >0

=SUMIF(F6:J6,"<>",F5:J5)

Thank you. I might end up having to go that route.

This particular is relatively new to me. So, I'm not sure if the spreadsheet usually starts with zeros or blanks in the Actual cells.

sumif will see a blank as zero - so no entry = blank and will work
