How can i calculate over time hours keeping in view the Sundays, if they work on holiday they are paid full hrs as overtime and rest days above 8 hrs is over time.

Fascinating. The only problem I find with LAMBDA and its help functions is how they make the formula almost unrecognisable from the original formula. My workaround, insert a couple of extra columns and break the formula down into parts to see how it changes. I also added some =FORMULATEXT cells to see at a glance how the formula changes. It works for me. Obviously, I downloaded your "...Complete" file and left it untouched to compare my WIP in the "...Start" file with the finished product. I'll need some practice.

Pre-LAMBDA adding columns to the data was pretty much the only way. That used to be my preferred method. However, for me it broke the basic principles of separating data, calculation and presentation. It adds a calculation element (the slicer selection) back into the data (the table). So I prefer the LAMBDA option, because I think it’s the right way to structure a spreadsheet.

@@ExcelOffTheGrid It's just a temporary fix until I fully get my head around LAMBDA. Once I've practiced a few times, it will no longer be necessary. As I'm retired, it's not as though I'll need it for work or anything. I'm just doing these tutorials to keep my brain active in an attempt to keep the dreaded dementia at bay.

@@ExcelOffTheGrid I've just took a closer look at your file and recreated it "in my own image". Basically kept everything on one sheet, grouped and hid the "data" columns when I didn't need them anymore. Originally, I tried to recreate it from the Data tab and From Picture (screenshot). I felt like a right pratt when I couldn't get anything to work. Then I downloaded your file and saw the reason for my failure. 🤣🤷‍♂️

I found it looks cleaner. Thanks for your time and effort. Now to go back to your "Change number format based on cell value" video.

Nice video, though many companies do not allow their employees using macros or vba due to high security standards. I always struggle to share such files and therefore my first attempt would be a hack here with overlaying text boxes which are already in a certain color. (I haven’t tried this idea so far)

I feel sorry for all those employees who will be stuck working longer hours doing pointless tasks because their company turned off VBA. Such a shame. The issue with overlying text boxes is the spacing between words is unlikely to work.

Hello! i am wondering something. For the second formula that gets the prior to value. What value would be returned if Q1 is selected as value in the quarter drop down list ? Q0? Shouldn’t we insert if formula with conditions to calcul quarter number ?
@ExcelOffTheGrid
@ExcelOffTheGrid 3 күн бұрын
If you select Q1 it shows an error in those cells. But if we select Q1, the IF statements ensures those cells are never part of the final formula. So, it doesn't cause any issues.

Before Lambdas, we could define a Name, let's call it Eval, with a Refers To formula of =EVALUATE(G20), and in another cell simply use =Eval to display the result. But this means we can only use it to evaluate the formula in G20 (which is hard-coded in the Refers To formula), so it's not as flexible as the Lambda. Maybe we should call this Name EvalG20, to distinguish it from other Evals we may need to define.

Sir, your tutorial has helped me in many different ways. But I want to know one thing that when we are writing the formulas in the cell then those formulas are visible or going in the formula bar. I want to write that formula(s) by VBA to solve the problem. How is it possible? If you give a detailed guide, it will be very helpful. For example, I am doing Date of Retirement calculation with EOMONTH or I am writing a specific formula in a cell to calculate Present Age. I want to run these formula in VBA. How to do? That means, I will write Date of Birth in one cell and Present Age in a cell and Retirement Date will be written in another cell simultaneously/automatically.
