    Question Staff Rotation Formula - help needed

    Hi to all you excel guru's!

    I really need some help with a formula please. We are have a number of machine operators who work 4 days on and 2 days off. We need a formula that returns a 1 for every day that an operator is to be on shift and then returns a 0 when the operator is off shift while at the same time inserting a one in the corresponding replacement operators cell. I need to account for around 120 operators so it will obviously be very useful indeed to have a formula and not have to do it manually. I have attached a sample spreadsheet to assist in my explanation.



    Thanks in advance

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.

    Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    To change a Title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    (This thread should receive no further responses until this moderation request is fulfilled, as per Forum Rule 7)

    Hi

    Use this formula in E17 and copy down and across
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =IF(MOD(COLUMN(E17)+ROW(A1),$D$5)<$B$5,1,0)

    See the file with the example machineoperatorotations.xlsx

    I hope this helps

    Note: Avoid using merged cells
