Calculate a capacity-adjusted demand allocation according to a ranking

Copper Contributor

In this scenario, only 6 suppliers of 7 will receive demand. The goal is for the adjusted demand allocations to be assigned, by a formula, to the highest ranked suppliers, up to their capacities, until there is no more demand to be allocated.  I'm exhausted from using multiple IF statements with AND and OR and MIN/MIX and anything else I can think of.  Appreciate the assist.

@BDB1973 Not sure I understand but perhaps you should start by sorting by rank and then us a fairly straight-forward formula to allocate the total amount that I placed in B11. See attached.

=MAX(0,(MIN(C2,$B$11-SUM($C$1:C1))))

 

@Riny_van_Eekelen: This solved my issue. Many times, simpler is better. Thank you so much.
