RE: Creating a statement formula
Hello Lennon,
My name is Greg Eze and I am one of the trainers at Best.
The way to achieve this is to think of the formula as : Opening Balance + Money put into account - Outgoings
1. Place the opening balance in a cell which is away from the main table e.g. in this case G1.
2. Refer to the formula above G1 (opening balance)+C1 (money put into account) - B1 outgoings)
3. If you wish to use the AutoFill, you must have G1 as an absolute reference otherwise the formula on the next row becomes G2+c2-b2 which will be wrong. Click on the cell with the formula, then use the Formula Auditing tools to find out wish cells are affected.
I hope this helps. I have attached a file which (I hope) corresponds to what you have in mind.
Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.
Regards
Greg
