How do I create a formula in Numbers that will only sum a set number of entries?

I'm trying to create a spreadsheet that will keep track of my expenses. In Table 1, I have only the totals for each spending category. All the other tables represent each of the spending categories, which contain all the transaction entries. In Table 1, I created a drop down menu with the following five options:
Last 30 Days
Last 365 Days
This Month
Last Month
All Time
The numerical entries in Table 1 correspond exactly to the entries of the respective footer rows. At the moment, the sum in each of the footer rows adds up all the transaction entries, but I want to be able to add up only the entries that satisfy the selected drop-down menu option.
So how can I create a conditional formula in each of the footer rows that will allow me to do this?

Hi tsp,
compare each date entry with today's date
The TODAY function will automatically update as your time zone crosses midnight.
Here is a single-cell table to use as a reference (or you could place this somewhere in a larger table)
=TODAY()
Calculating days until a task must be done
C2 (and Fill Down)
=DATEDIF(Today::A$1,B2,"D")
But only if your dog can wait 3 days for a walk .

  • How do I create a timesheet on numbers that will give me a weekly total as well as an hourly total?

    I am currently enrolled in an internship, and I need to sumbit an timesheet every week, as well as one at the end of my internship showing the overall hours that I worked. How do I create a Time sheet that will show my start time, end time, total hours for the day, total hours for the week, and total overall hours. If possible can someone please show me step by step how to do this or give me a template I can go off of.

    Hi j,
    Take a look at the Employee Schedule template in the business section of the Template Chooser.
    With a few modifications, it should do what you need.
    Start by renaming the main table to reflect the new focus—you—then replace the names in row 1 with the Sunday dates of the weeks being recorded. Each column will then report your total house for one week (in row 25). You can use SUM() to total these in a separate cell or on a separate tabel.
    One caution:
    The values in the pop-up menus, like those in all cells showing either Date or Time values contain both a Date part and a Time part. Where only the Time part has been entered, the Date part is the Date on which the entry was created. For the pop-ups on this table, that was July 15, 2008, so the full value in cell C7 (John's first "In" time) is July 15, 2008 08:00:00. That full value is what's used in the calculation in C9.
    If you edit the pop-up menu lists, there are two things to be aware of:
    The "blank" item in the menus enters an empty string into its cell, not a true blank. You, as a user, cannot create an 'empty string' item in a popup menu. The closest you can come is an entry with a single space. If you edit the "blank" item, you will also need to edit the formulas in the hours rows to detect a space ( " " ) rather than an empty string ( "" ).
    If you add or change any 'time' items in the pop-ups, the new (or changed) items will contain 'today's' date as part of the value. To avoid unexpected results from calculations, you'll need to edit ALL or the 'time' items if you choose to edit or add one.
    Take a look at the template, then bring back any questions that arise.

    Barry

  • I want to create a formula in numbers that gives me an ongoing monthly average

    I've created a spreadsheet to track my MPG, and I'm also logging all maintenance bills too.
    What I want to do, is get an idea of how much the vehicle is costing me on a monthly average. I want this to be ongoing over several years and therefore want the spreadsheet to work out the monthly average cost over the life of the vehicle.
    How would I write a formula to do this without having to manually adjust the formula each month?

    Ahhh.  OK.  you want to see an average that is only for one months data out of a list of entries,
    E2=EOMONTH(A2, 0)
    this is shorthand for... select cell E2, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
    =EOMONTH(A2, 0)
    F2=EDATE(EOMONTH(A2,0)+"1d", −1)
    D2=IF(MONTH(A2)≠MONTH(A3), AVERAGEIFS(C,A,"<="&E2, A, ">="&F2), "")
    select cells D2 the F2, copy
    select cells D2 thru F8, paste
    once you are done you can combine the formulas for columns E and F into column D.... or... you can hide columns E and F

  • How do I create a filter in photoshop that will effect any photo you add it to?

    I need to create a template that can be quickly and easily changed out week to week. So I need to adjust the colors of photos but add that to any photo I choose week after week. How do I do this??

    Wrong tool. Use InDesign. That aside you may be looking for a solution that may not/ can not exist - how would you create a usable duotone of an image, without tweaking its contrast beforehand? It's simply gonna look different with every lighting situation and require manual intervention. and I don't know how "most designers" work, but for the aforementioned reasons I wouldn't work this way. Our clients 'marketing directors would ram me into the ground without even a second thought if they got such untweaked work.

  • How do I create a simple launcher VI that will end when the new VI is started?

    I've just recently upgraded to Labview 7 and I'm writing a complex set of programs that are related, but do not need to be running simultaneously. I would like to write a simple launcher program that will load the appropriate VI and close itself after doing so. I understand how to call a subVI and have its front panel open upon execution, but I'd rather keep the VI's seperate.
    Thanks for any help in advance.
    -Warren

    Try the attached example. Be careful though - if you make changes to this VI, make sure you save it before you run it, as it closes itself, and you will loose any unsaved changes...

  • I am a teacher and I want a formula for Numbers that will average out A, B, C, D and E's of my students.

    As the title says- I'm not much of a formula wizard and any help would be appreciated. Here's an example-
    Student A receives a B, C, A, A, D, A for 6 assignments. I want them to average out at the end of the row, as well as an average on a separate page of summaries for all subjects that are assessed this way.
    Ive seen it on an excel spreadsheet but was unable to look at the formula.
    Please help as the semester starts in a week for us in Australia!
    Thanks

    I basically want a formula where I can average Letters out to a B- or C+. Can I do this from just letters alone or do I need to assign numbers. Speaking to my curriculum coordinator, she said stick to LETTERS and see if we can sort out something for that as we don't officially report in numbers.
    So that would mean I would need an average formula that would calculate B + C + C + D + A into a single Letter. I dont know if it is possible without using numbers. I hope you understand what I'm trying to explain. It's quite hard!
    You say where the cutoffs are, is that A=90-100%?
    Can you just use letters to make an average of the letter? 
    AVERAGE, which calculates the arithmetic mean of a set of values, works with numerical values.
    On your posted layout, you have a table showing the letter equivalent of a percentage score:
    A score under 40 = E
    A score 40 or higher, but under 50 = D
    A score 50 or higher, but under 65 = C
    A score 56 or higher, but under 85 = B
    A score 85 or higher = A
    Those numerical scores may be summed, averaged, and a letter grade assigned. With the specifications given in that table, the letter grade will not include a + or -.
    Your layout includes nine numerical scores for the first student (all of which are well under 40. My assumption here is that each is the student's score out of the number in the same column of row 3 (ie, the first, 13, is 13 out of 14, the second is 10 out of 16, etc,)
    This raises a question:
    Does each point noted contribute equally to the final average?
    Or
    Does each quiz/exercise contribute equally to the final average?
    For the letter grades to be averaged, you will need to set a specific numerical equivalent (not a range) for each letter grade.
    For the letter grades and number grades to be combined into a single final letter grade, the numerical equivalents noted above must be chosen with that goal in mind, OR the numerical scores must be converted into letter grades, then reconverted into specific numerical equivalents for each letter grade, inserted into the set of (converted) letter grades, averaged, then reconverted to the equivalent letter grade.
    As you can see, there are yet a few hurdles to overcome.

  • How do I create an Application with Automator that will open files in Photoshop Elements 11 and run an action?

    Here's what I'd really like the Script to do when I select one main folder:
    Look through all the subfolders, find all the PNG files and convert them to TIFFs, replacing the original PNG files.
    Open the converted TIFF files in PSE 11.
    Run an action on them in PSE 11 (which I already created that adds a white fill layer below the TIFF file.)
    Save each file in their original location and Close each file.
    Import them into LR.
    Anybody?  Bueller?  Bueller?
    If that's not possible, I'd love an Automator action that can convert the PNG files to TIFFs that can be viewed in LR 4.4.  If I convert them in PSE 11, LR can view them, but if I convert them using Automator, LR cannot.
    Thanks so much for any help you can provide.

    LabVIEW 7 added a property to get a command line argument. For older versions see http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.display_epd4?p_guid=B45EACE3DA5B56A4E034080020E74861.
    I'm not sure I understand you problem with the Run button. If you set the execution mode to Run When Opened from VI Properties, it should execute once whenever it's called. I think that when building an executable, it changes the property to this if it's not already set. If the application does not have this set, it will not be running at all. I'm assuming that you are talking about the Run button on the toolbar and not a run Boolean that you've created on the front panel.
    Since you have the app builder, your other option is to create a DLL. If you can call a DLL in Matlab, then that would probably be simpler.

  • How do I create a simple writeable template that will load to any PDF invoice

    Hi there, I am wanting to use a word template (or writeable PDF template) to superimpose (cut and paste) onto a PDF invoice we receive by email. The goal is to allow us to code directly on to the PDF received. I have tried a few options but they all are time consuming.
    Can you please recommend the simplest method to code direct on to the invoice copy (that a manager can then sign off when the email is forwarded to him/her) with the invoice and amendment attached.
    Many thanks

  • How do I create a formula to convert words to numbers?

    Hi,
    Basically my spreadsheet is almost entirely words and as numbers (or excel for that matter) work with words (although this I have suggested as an improvement), I need to convert all the words to numerics.
    For example. I have a question with a drop down asking for male or female (I've done drop down lists as I want to cross analyse the results at a later date). I need to create a formula so that numbers automatically counts up all the males and females and puts them in another overall table. I guess I do this by creating a formula for numbers to turn all 'males' into 1 and all 'females' into 2, then ask numbers to count up all the 1's and 2's and put them in a table?
    Here are a couple of images which may or may not explain it further:

  • How do I create a Bing Maps route that stays on a U.S. Route number for tourism/scenic purposes?

    How do I create a Bing Maps route that stays on a U.S. Route number for tourism/scenic purposes?  I want to go from point a to point b while staying as much as possible on a US route number, such as US 6 or US 20 or US 101 or US 40, (and the defunct
    US 66).
    Instead of dragging points back to the road every time it pulls you onto a faster route, can I just say "use RT20 as much as possible?"
    Or as simple as choosing a point on a US Route and selecting the entire length as a trip.   The idea is to plan trips throughout the USA avoiding interstates, and staying on the actual original routes.
    I am posting this here at request from Microsoft Support Engineer as a more complex request.

    This is already on the feature request list from one other person. This would take a lot of work to implement from a technical side of things. given that only one other person has requested this, there isn't much of a business case for this yet.

  • I am trying to create a button in flash that will display 4 separate images at the same time when clicked.  I can't get the images to stay on when I take the mouse of the button.  I need the actions script code to make this happen.

    I am trying to create a button in flash that will allow the user to click on the button and 4 separate images show up at the same time.  I can get the images to appear when I click the button but they will not stay on the screen.  I need to know what code I use to make the images stay once the button is clicked, then I need to know exactly where I place that code.  It does not appear to be possible to add the action code to the buttons layer since each time I add a new layer I just get another "up" "over" "down" and "hit" line.
    Thank you in advance

    It is not clear how you are trying to realize this from your description.  If you are trying to create this within a button symbol it will not work.  Explain your approach and if there is code involved, show what you have so far.

  • Can I create a presentation in iPhoto that will combine still slides and video?

    I have just returned from a safari and have a lot of pictures and videos from the trip.  I would like to create a presentation/slide show that will show the slides and also videos in the same slide show and allow me to manually pace the show.  I know how to do this in PowerPoint but would rather use a more natice mac ap and thought it might be possible in iMovie or iPhoto but am not sure exactly what the best way to do this would be.

    and allow me to manually pace the show.  I know how to do this in PowerPoint but would rather use a more natice mac ap and thought it might be possible in iMovie or iPhoto but am not sure exactly what the best way to do this would be.
    If you want a native Mac application for your slideshow you could also try Keynote, the Apple alternative to Powerpoint. It will give you similar presentation options.
    Aperture - if you have it - would allow to trim the videos, allow more fine control over how the audio of the clips will be mixed, and still allow to manually pace the slideshow, but it is expensive and will no longer be developed. But if you have compatible versions of Aperture and iPhoto, simple open your iPhoto Library in Aperture: Aperture 3.3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture

  • HT203658 How to sign in using the Apple ID that I initially used to set up the computer?

    How to sign in using the Apple ID that I initially used to set up the computer? I cant update my iPhoto and download pictures from Iphone :((
    I updated ios on my MacBook Air to Yosemite, since then I had to update also iPhoto, as it was not compatible with Yosemite. When trying to update it I received this alert "These apps cannot be accepted by your Apple ID. These have already been assigned to another Apple ID." And the solution wud be to sign in using my initial Apple ID, but Im not aware of having one or changing it. I have many Mac devices so I at one point sing in to my Air with another ID not even noticing it and have it since the moment I found out the alert. Can anyone help me with this, please? And also, where are my pictures stored in my Air? Is there some folder, cuz Im used to Windows and Mac is totally new and not really clear to me for now. I need to download pictures from my iPhone and iPhoto seems to be the only way??
    thanks

    How to sign in using the Apple ID that I initially used to set up the computer? I cant update my iPhoto and download pictures from Iphone :((
    Try to remember any AppleID you ever may have used.
    In the AppStore Application go to the "Store" menu.
    It will show you the AppleiD You are currently using (in the last menu entry "View my account ....".
    Use the "Sign out" command and sign in with any AppleID you ever used, ten check the "Purchases" tab of the App Store, if that will show the bundled apps.
    And also, where are my pictures stored in my Air?
    If you have used iPhoto to download your pictures, the photos will be stored in the iPhoto Library, a package, that is stored in the folder "Pictures" in your Home folder.
    Terence Devlin has written some very useful user tips, that describe the iPhoto Library:  See the links below:

    There are multiple ways to do similar things. One, built into the system, is to use text replacement. See:
    http://www.tuaw.com/2009/12/31/mac-101-making-text-replacement-work/
    There are other programs you can buy that can do the job in different ways, such as TextExpander. You could also just create a clipping file by dragging your e-mail address to somewhere like the desktop, and then you can simply drag that file to wherever you like to insert your e-mail address there.
