Working on creating a formula to use information across two cells to determine calculations in other cells
Our take
(reposted first post got removed) I'm not certain the IF formula(s) are what I need but I'm not sure what else to use. Trying to create a spreadsheet for work: the premise is that if one or two people are the Contact for a project, they will split 5% of the project's earnings, each getting 2.5%; if only one person, they get 5%. The same for if one or two people who are the Winners for the project. I need some way for the spreadsheet to be able to see that if someone's initials are under either Contact or Winner, to then give them either 5% of the net income if they are the only Contact or only Winner, or 2.5% if they share either spot with someone else. The total amount of the net income given out as a bonus will always come to 10%. The first picture shows my 'backend' sheet and a formula I was trying that would calculate 2.5% of the Net Income if someone's initials showed up on the project, but this doesn't work if their initials only show up once because then they would need to get 5%. I would also hope there would be a less clunky way to do this many calculations. The second picture is a section of the main page of the sheet showing the Contact and Winner columns, the Net Income the bonus comes out of, and then the Total C/W amount under everyone's initials that adds up their total bonuses.
Backend sheet, 'points' refers to first sheet
Please let me know if I have not been thorough enough with explaining what I'm trying to do, I'm so deep in this now that I am really really confused and just need help straightening this all out. Using newest version of Excel on a macbook, have also been working on same spreadsheet in Windows. I'm not a beginner at excel but not all that good either. TYSM in advance.

- Making a fillable form with dropdowns and sections that can be added and moved easily**SEE ATTACHED IMAGE** I am attempting to improve this spreadsheet. I have a decent amount of experience with Excel but I am unfamiliar with the terminology require to describe the exact functions I am attempting to implement. The function of the sheet is to log various statuses and information pertaining to ladders and their inspection status. Each workbook has a header section and a footer section to diffentiate between clients. The sections that detail the individual ladders need to be moveable / re-order more easily, and also be able to insert a blank ladder section for any new ladders that come into service. The reason excel was selected is for access reasons. All of our clients use excel, but if there is an objectively better tool for the job that is part of the Office suite that people can use via the web or with their Office licence then I will consider that. Thank you to everyone who is able to provide some insight into this. https://preview.redd.it/7ln3oocpcjvg1.png?width=1405&format=png&auto=webp&s=584525d55bd27779bd56a9d746b5dcc6dd913c70 submitted by /u/WillowDime [link] [comments]
- Monthly tracking workbook I use to track employee sales metrics; Trying to find a way to make the process less labour intensiveTruly having a hard to describing my issue effectively but hoping someone can help. First time posting here and I'm by no means an expert with excel, so please be kind! I have a monthly workbook where I track each employees revenue and other metrics. Every 2 weeks for payroll, I provide a print out of these numbers, and the payroll sheet pulls data from multiple sheets in the workbook. For example, every workbook has a separate sheet for each day of the month, titled "1" through "31". I have pay period sheets, so I'll use one titled "04.02.26 - 04.15.26". Then I'll have the data for each employee pulled from multiple sheets. For example, I use the formula =SUM('2:15'!E3) to pull the sales data from each day of that period for the specific employee. This works quite well. However, when I create a new month's spreadsheet, I have to manually alter this formula for each employee and for each data point (more than just revenue, at least 6 different data points for 7 employees). Is there a way to automate this? For example, a cell or two where I'm able to enter the date range and all of the formulas update to that date range for the corresponding pages? I'm sorry of this post is confusing. Truly it's confusing even typing it! submitted by /u/Ok_Smile9222 [link] [comments]
- Tiered Results Formula with Multiple OutcomesI know the basics but I'm a lil stumped on a formula to use for this specific situation. I have to build payroll spreadsheets for every employee based on their pay plans. Some of their plans were changed where they get a larger percentages based on the gross total for that month. To keep it simple, how would I build something to give a different percent based on the total in one cell. Just to keep it simple for this example. 0-100 pays 1% 101-300 pays 1.25% 300+ pays 1.5% I've done similar IF formulas but never quite exactly like this situation. I appreciate the help, as I'm still just learning and couldn't find an exact answer from Google based on how I was trying to phrase it. submitted by /u/swidgen504 [link] [comments]
