    Excel 2010 - Large function across multiple columns, which each have their own criteria

    HI Guys,
    I've searched the forum for answers, but can't find one that solves my particular problem.
    I have attached the spreadsheet.
    Firstly, I need to find the Top 5 biggest sales across columns D, F, J, L; each of these columns have qualifying criteria ("AI", as opposed to "A", etc) in their corresponding columns (E, G, K, M). This data (amounts) then get inputted in a different sheet (Top 5...). i've played around with Large(if) as well as Large(or) statements, but no avail.

    2ndly, I also need the matching Client Name added. ( I have played around with Index & Match, but they only seem to work if they have to match one column.
    There are actually more columns, besides DFJ& L, there are 6 to be precise, but I am hoping this example I can just be adapted for all my regions.
    Excel Functions for Top 5 wins.xlsx
    Please can someone shed some light?
    I hope I explained it correctly.
    Many thanks

    Hi, try steps below to get the top 5 wins.
    1. Create 4 names as follow:
    PlantsMaintenance='Region Data_Annuity'!$D$4:$D$76*('Region Data_Annuity'!$E$4:$E$76="AI")
    PlantsRental='Region Data_Annuity'!$F$4:$F$76*('Region Data_Annuity'!$G$4:$G$76="AI")
    WaterMaintenance='Region Data_Annuity'!$J$4:$J$76*('Region Data_Annuity'!$K$4:$K$76="AI")
    WaterRental='Region Data_Annuity'!$L$4:$L$76*('Region Data_Annuity'!$M$4:$M$76="AI")
    2. Enter array formula (ctrl+shift+enter) in 'Top 5 Wins'!C3

    3. Copy the formula down to C7 and you shall get all the top 5 annuity gains

    As for your second issue, what if more than 1 client names matched the top 1 win?

    Hi Alvin,
    Thanks for all the help so far. I am implementing step 1 so far.
    I dont think that there will be more than 1 client that matches the Top 1 Win, as the formula needed, needs to look at the specific line items.

    In that case, try this formula in D3 and copy down to D7.
