I'm looking for a practical way to calculate Pakistan salary income tax in Excel.
The goal would be to enter a monthly salary and have the spreadsheet estimate the applicable tax and resulting take-home amount. Ideally, the calculation should be easy to update when the applicable tax slabs or salary-related rules change. For someone building this in Excel, would you recommend keeping the tax slabs in a separate lookup table and using formulas against that table, rather than hard-coding the rates into one large formula? I'm particularly interested in approaches that make the spreadsheet easier to maintain when tax rules change.Welcome to the Excel Community

Braille Translator Challenge
Using the Braille Alphabet lookup table provided: Part 1 - convert the given phrase from Braille to words. Part 2 - convert the given phrase from words to Braille. ✅ Solutions should be in the form of a single-cell formula. ✅ Generalized Lambda functions are welcome, provided the function definitions are included with your solution. ✅ Keep in mind, the "best" solution is not necessarily the shortest... Strive for conciseness, if you wish; just don't let your solutions be ordinary. 😉 Good luck and have fun!
Webservice function
Hello. I want to use the WEBSERVICE function to geolocate an IP address. The address is in cell A1, and the function is in A2. The function looks like this: =WEBSERVICE("https://ip-api.com/csv/" & A1). Unfortunately, the result is #ARG!. I have no idea what is wrong. Can you help me? Best regards, Piotr
Linked data not updating
Hi I have a rostering spreadsheet where each person has their own spreadsheet with their rota they select a shift in their spreadhseet. I have a main spreadhseet where I link each spreadhseet to my my main rota so I can see what shifts they have selecteeneed and be able to resolve any conflicts i.e 2 peole selecting sam eshift. The issue is when data is updated in the individual spreadhseet it is not pulling through to my main spreadsheet. I used Data and get data form Excel file to link the workbooks. Not sure what I am doing wrong When Dr Adams adds a Y in Thursday it is not showing in my spreadhseetFormulas Challenge for 365
Thank you for reading this post! I propose a formulas challenge (The shorter the better). Attached is a workbook in need of two formulas. I have solutions for each (Formula 1 is 66 characters, Formula 2 is 72) but would like to compare notes with others and maybe learn some new things. Formula 1: Rollup data from 5 sheets. Must be sorted A-Z, no blank rows, and must include header. Formula 2: Find the j+ max for each agent. This sounds simple but you'll have to see the workbook. The arrangement is based off a client's workbook that crossed my desk several years ago. The rules are simple. For this challenge the following are restricted: vba, PowerQuery, fill handle, use of named items, and alteration of existing data. Functions available on the Beta channel are fair game. Note: You may find this exercise difficult if you're not on 365 with Insider. The goal of this exercise is to explore some of the newest functions Excel has to offer. Have at it!Referenced cells do not identify themselves with color
For some reason when I create a formula that references other cells, I cannot get those cells to "identify" themselves with a specific color. For example, in the image below the formula references cells B7, B8, B6, etc but they are just black text and don't show up in color per standard excel documents. Usually they "glow" with a specific color so you can find them easily in big spreadsheets. How do I get the colors back?
