Run Multiple sets of data through set formula's
Hello, First off thank you for taking the time to look at this question though I would not be at all surprised if I am completely wrong about what I actually need. One of my colleagues and I have b...
How about this to streamline your process:
- Use Excel Tables and Structured References
If your data is stored in a structured table, formulas can automatically apply to multiple rows without needing manual input for each set. - Array Formulas or Dynamic Arrays
Excel's newer dynamic array functions (like FILTER, SORT, and UNIQUE) can help process multiple sets of data at once. If you're using an older version, array formulas (CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER) might be useful. - Power Query for Bulk Processing
Power Query allows you to import and transform multiple sets of data efficiently. You can set up a query that pulls in all the data, applies the necessary calculations, and outputs the results in one go. - VBA Automation
If your current setup requires manual entry, VBA can automate the process by looping through multiple sets of data and applying formulas dynamically. - Data Tables for Scenario Analysis
Excel’s Data Table feature can be used to run multiple scenarios at once, especially if your formulas depend on a few key input variables.
