Commission Calculation totals
- Dec 29, 2021
I should just confirm that your output table is an Excel Table (with or without the jolly stripes). The fact that your field names comprise multiple words makes the syntax slightly more complex, but it should come up correctly simply by clicking the target cell.
= LOOKUP( 1, 1 / ( tblC3[Revenue Type] = [@[Revenue Type]]) / ( tblC3[Outlet] = [@Outlet]), tblC3[Total part] * [@[Total spend]] * tblC3[Commission %] )The thing to note that if an additional square bracket appears, it should have a corresponding closing bracket.
I really appreciate you Peter!
Create and format tables (microsoft.com)
I had a quick search round but have yet to identify the perfect video for you. The Microsoft one gives a quick view on creating tables but from there on you will be reading. There must be something better out there!
Other things to search for are 'Structured References' since it is they that make table formulas readable.
