[Solved] Add "Not Budget" total to checkbook register

Post by timlab55 »

Good evening fellow's. I have a problem and wondering if someone can help. I have 8 columns and unknown of rows. Month to month I have different amount of transactions. So Col A is the Date, Col B i sthe Check Number, Col C is the Payee/Transaction, Col D is the category, Col E is if the check has cleared or not (indicated by C or or R), Col F is the Withdrawal Amount, Col G are the deposit, and Col H is the running total. On the bottom of the form, I have 3 items. In col F is have the total amount of Withdraws, col G is the total Deposits, and col H I have those two subtracted, which gives me a balance.
Now what I would like to do is also on the bottom give me a running total of all the Withdraws that are not "Not Budget". How would I write this?
Thanks Dan

How is a transaction marked when it is Not Budget? Knowing that, you could use the SUMIF function to total only those transactions.

Sorry, what is blank? Whatever it is, the best solution is probably to change that blank to a notation, maybe NB for "not budgeted", and use the SUMIF function.

Dear FJCC -
Sometime today I will create a dummy Checkbook Register to show what I'm doing.
Also wanted to mention that for some reason the forum is kinda of slow.

Forum slowness has been reported, so we wait for a fix.

FJCC - Here is the example of what I'm looking for. The only thing I need help in is getting all the Not Budget items at the bottom to give me a total. You'll see what I mean when you open the demo.
Thanks

This formula in D37 should get you what you want.

Code: Select all

=SUMIF(D8:D35,"Not Budget",F8:F35)

With semicolons instead of commas it does work...
