How to set a max for a group of cells

Copper Contributor

Not easy to relay what i'm trying to do here... 

 

I'm trying to establish a resource requirement list. We have 13 resources available for 4 categories. 

 

Right now, I have each category set to cap at 13 resources based on volume per category(this can happen as these are fed via a separate formula). My issue is that I don't want the sum of the 4 cells to exceed that 13 number either. How can i do that?

Essentially, i want to be able to assign my resources by category but not exceed my max of 13.

Hi

 

Please go through the attached file. 

Is there a way i can set so that the combination of column b does not exceed a sum of 13 even if formulas are fed to each cell in the column?
