    Question Automatically ID where cell information should be assigned to?

    I don't know if this is even possible, and if so if I am in the correct thread.... But can't hurt to ask.... If I am wrong, please let me know....

    What I am doing is this... I am the treasurer of our bowling league. I have been working on an excel sheet to do all the work I need it to do for me. They pay weekly. Got the sheet working perfectly up until I have a sub bowler that comes in that week.... The issue is, the sub pays the week they bowl and the bowler that they subbed for doesn't have to pay. So in my example, I have Laura (me) being out and then Vickie is the sub bowler. The sub bowlers are identified on the sheet as "S" in column H.

    Is there away that I can get excel to ID who the sub is bowling for (for that particular week), and then clear the regular bowlers past due notification (you see in cell M5 & N5). During the season the sub could be bowling for many different people within the league, so I can't really assign them to one person or 1 team. I do have to leave the payments of the players with the players who paid it for record purposes So putting the total the sub paid in the regular players row is out.

    Any idea or suggestions would be fantastic! I have attached my sheet as well so you all can look at it.

    Thanks,

    Maybe this -
    Put an A in column H next to the absent bowler, then in M8 and N8 use an if formula
    M8

    gmr4evr1, thanks for your suggestion, however that would only work if the sub was going to bowl for the regular bowler every week. There are 20 weeks and the sub would only bowl a few times for a player if at all. Placing an A in that location would make the calculation work where I wouldn't want it to. NOW, perhaps I could place an A in the area that I am suppose to put their money total.... but then I would need to add to cell "N" away to take $12 from the count and the YES in cell "M" to remain blank.

    Current cell N has a function in it that reads: =IF(H8="S","",SUMIF(I8,"<>",$BI8))

    and cell M has a function that reads: =IF(H8="S","",IF(I8="","",IF($B$4>BF8,"YES","")))

    I still need these arguments as well.

    Your requirement is not clear to me. Can you explain shortly with an example?

    Re: Automatically ID where cell information should be assigned to?

    Here ya go sanram:

    Example 1: This is what it is doing right now....

    Example 2: This is what I would like for it to do...

    In column "P" I would like to place an "A" there to mark that player as absent, which in turn will clear out the fact that she is past due & owes $12.

    Current cell N has a function in it that reads: =IF(H10="S","",SUMIF(I10,"<>",$BI10))

    and cell M has a function that reads: =IF(H10="S","",IF(I10="","",IF($B$6>BF10,"YES","")))

    which has nothing to do with what Im wanting here, but is needed for other functions within the sheet. So if anything needs to be added to those cells, they have to include the existing formula.

    Here is my current sheet if you would like to play with it.... DEMO 2.xlsm
