Calculation & Data transfer between worksheets

Good afternoon,

I have inherited an excel workbook that calculates OT hours and amounts to be paid for each employee in the department.

However, I have a couple of lines in Worksheet 'Summary' which are not bringing in the data correctly from the front page.

Line 33 Aaron Ghatt Has worked 24 hours OT but I am unable to get the sheet to recognise this.

Line 31 Richard Tracey - Has carried out step up shifts but this is missing a shift. Even when I add another line on the Input sheet it still doesn't recognise it.

To bring data from Input sheet into 'Summary' sheet I select the data in Tab 1 and then right click on an empty cell in Tab 2, Right click and press Refresh. It then brings in the daily entries into a monthly overview for each employee.

Once I have this and validated it, I return to Tab 1 and press 'Export OT sheet' and this takes the data into the correct format for our payroll department to manage.

Please can you help me with the lines x 2 which are not calculating correctly.

Many thanks
Hilary

RE: Calculation & Data transfer between worksheets

Hi Hilary,

A lot of things are going on in this workbook. Macros, PivotTable and some complicated nested functions.

I cannot see you have a problem with Aaron. The pivottable on the summary sheet show the information from the Input sheet.

If you unhide column M on the Input sheet, you will see that one of the formulas is missing for Richard. Copy the formula down. You will also need this if you add more records at the bottom.



Kind regards

Excel tip:

Create a hyperlink navigation sheet

In large files, it is often useful to have a front sheet with hyperlinks to the key databases and summary calculations in your spreadsheet. Hyperlinks can save you and (more importantly) those less familiar with your spreadsheet a great deal of pointless scrolling between and within sheets.



Hyperlinks appear as underlined text and can jump to any cell or range name in your file. You can also use hyperlinks to jump to other files.



To create a hyperlink to a location in the active workbook: (1) Select the cell that contains the text you want to use as the hyperlink and choose Insert|Hyperlink.(2)Click Place in this document.(3)Choose the sheet you want to link to or the range name from the list of "Defined Names".(4)If necessary, type the cell reference in the Type in the cell reference box. (5) Click OK.
