i have a list of people which order menu's from a list each day. In the end I want a weekly sum for every person.
The problem here is, that every person can order more than one menu per day.
My current formula to count all occurrences of one menu is
{=SUM(LEN(B$2:F$2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B$2:F$2,$A$6,"")))}
Then I build a sum formula in an extra column for every day that consists of this formula multiplied with its corresponding price added for every menu item. This leads to this pretty ugly formula even for Monday in G2
:
{=SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$6,"")))*$B$6+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$7,"")))*$B$7+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$8,"")))*$B$8+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$9,"")))*$B$9+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$10,"")))*$B$10+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$11,"")))*$B$11+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$12,"")))*$B$12+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$13,"")))*$B$13+SUM(LEN(B2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2,$A$14,"")))*$B$14}
Can anyone think of a better formula:
ARRAY-FORMULAS: CTRL + SHIFT +ENTER
No need for a CSE
formula here.
=SUMPRODUCT((LEN(B2:F2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2:F2,A$6:A$14,"")))*B$6:B$14)
returns 19.75, though using only a single formula.
