Hello User2103,
You could try using a PivotTable. Here's how:
Create a PivotTable:
- Select the entire data (including headers).
- Go to Insert > PivotTable.
- In the Create PivotTable dialog box, choose New Worksheet and click OK.
Set up the PivotTable:
- Drag Client Name and Client ID to the Rows area.
- Drag Invoice Number and Amount to the Values area.
- For Amount, click on the drop-down arrow, select Value Field Settings, and choose Sum.
- This will give you a new sheet with unique clients and the total of their invoices.
- Sort the transactions:
- Go back to your original data sheet.
- Select the entire data (including headers).
- Go to Data > Sort.
- In the Sort dialog box, sort by Client Name and then by Amount in descending order.
This will sort all transactions allocated to each client in descending order of the amount.
