    Post Sum if conditional formatting

    Hi all,

    I am trying to conditional format a table to flag whether a resource allocation has flagged to over 100% per column (per week) there are multiple projects that are managed by one resource, so I am looking for some SUMIF formula in conditional formatting but cant seem to find many threads on this.

    I am open to work arounds as well.

    Workbook should be attached

    Welcome to the forum.

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook (yellow banner: HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK). Screenshots are of little practical use as we cannot manipulate them.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. The sample layout accurately matches that of your real data. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    Thanks, but I think you missed this bit:

    The sample layout accurately matches that of your real data. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    Re: Sum if conditional formatting

    CF rule for K2:

    =SUMIFS($K$2:$K$19,$A$2:$A$19,$A2)

    Applies to: =$K$2:$K$19

    Is this what you want? Once again, I asked you to mock up EXPECTED results, but there is no manual red shading - just green - so I'm not sure that I am following our logic fully.

    Re: Sum if conditional formatting

    I suppose what I am looking at here hypothetically is Conditional format cells red if the sumif >=100%

    Re: Sum if conditional formatting

    OK - so try this, then:

    =SUMIFS($K$2:$K$19,$A$2:$A$19,$A2)>=1

    Re: Sum if conditional formatting

    You shouldn't need to do that. Just adjust the existing rule.

    CF rule:

    =SUMIFS(K$2:K$19,$A$2:$A$19,$A2)>=1

    Note the change here!

    Applies to: =$K$2:$AA$19
