What are the other sheet names for each day?They can't all be called
"Transaction".
Are you looking for a macro solution? or Excel formulas?
the issue here is that for each ROW of data, you have to predict what the
source transaction sheet name will be.
For example, in Cell C4, you need the value of the "Misc" row from the sheet
with 6/1/2015 data.
technically: "Misc" is from the heading row 2, column C, and the date
(6/1/2015) is from column B
So, if the sheet for 6/1/2015 is called "transaction",then you can use a simple
vlookup in cell C4:=VLOOKUP(C$2,transaction!$A$2:$B$55,2,FALSE)
But the problem is: if the heading value doesn't appear in the sheet, you get a
return value of "#N/A", which messes up your total.
So, you have to "wrap" this function with an IFERROR() function.
IFERROR evaluates the function. if it is successful, it returns the value from
the function. If not, it does whatever you tell it to.In this case, return
"nothing".So you end up with:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C$2,transaction!$A$2:$B$55,2,FALSE),"")You drag it across and
everything looks great.
So, now you need to decide how the sheet name is going to be determined.
this is where it gets kind-of tricky.I a can give you an EXAMPLE (and idea as
to how *I* would do it)but without knowing what your sheet names look like,
it's just guesswork on my part.
Let's say that for 6/1/2015 your transaction sheet is
called:"transaction_06.01.2015"
That sheet name can be concatenated (strung together)by combining
"transaction_" and the date from B4.But, Excel says the value in B4 is: 42156
!!(which is the number of days since 1/1/1900)
So, you need to convert it to mm.dd.yyyy format.You do that with the Text()
function.
So, the sheet name becomes:"transaction_" & TEXT($B4,"mm.dd.yyyy")
Now, to get the Excel formula to process this string as a cell reference, you
have to use the INDIRECT() function.
So, the previous formula:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C$2,transaction_06.01.2015!$A$2:$B$50,2,FALSE),"")
becomes:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C$2,INDIRECT("transaction_"&TEXT($B4,"mm.dd.yyyy")&"!$A$2:$B$55"),2,FALSE),"")
You drag THAT across and down.
Then, as long as the new sheets are named in the proper
format:"transaction_mm.dd.yyyy", then the Petty Cash sheet will update
appropriately.
If you can give me the proper sheet name format, I could make sure the formula
is corrected.

Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ help required in petty cash transanction
in this workbook, I have two worksheets namely PETTY CASH SHEET and
TRANSANCTION, I need a formula through which I may be able to transfer amount
from TRANSANCTION sheet to PETTY CASH SHEET in the date and respective accounts
mentioned in the TRANSANCTION sheet, in this workbook I've provided only one
day data, in the same way I've mentioned more data for the next date i.e.
02/06/2105 and so on till the last of the month. In PETTY CASH SHEET I've
colorized row 4 in which the above data i.e. 01/06/2015 will be enter in the
respective account. Furthermore, the transanction shown in the TRANSANCTION
sheet must be changed in the next date i.e. it may be four or it may twenty so
please take note of it.
Thanks in advance.
