I am going to take a guess that you are taking a physical inventory and want to just count full cases and then have Excel convert that into units for you.



Some tips:



1. All Excel formulas start with the equal sign "=". Start with an equal sign and then you can click on cells to build equations/calculations using the operators like +, -, *, / etc. Excel also has hundreds of automatic functions like SUM, MIN, COUNT, AVERAGE, etc. There is a little icon next to the formula bar (Fx) that you can press to bring up the function wizard. Probably not necessary for what you need.



2. Assuming I guessed your problem there are two ways to solve this issue. First lets agree on the structure of your Excel document:



Column A - This is where you are going to record the SKU number which I assume you will need



Column B - This is where you will record the number of full cases you found in location during physical inventory



Column C - This is where you will record any loose pieces found in location (if applicable). This is in case you come to a location that has 10 full boxes each with 12 units per box and then there are an additional 7 units not in a box resting on top.



Column D - This is where you will record the units per case (per SKU). If you have a report somewhere that lists the units/case for every SKU you will not need to record this information manually, you could easily use a "vlookup" function in excel to automatically return the units/case value for each SKU. For simplicity sake I will assume you don't have a report with this info so you have to manually record it.



Column E - This is where you will calculate total units found in each location. Assuming you used the same table organization I suggested above and that the first row was used to name the columns your formula should looke like this:



=(B2*D2)+C2



Once you enter that in you can highlight the cell and drag it down to auto-fill the entire report. As you drag the cell down it will automatically change the reference of the cells to match the current row

Your question doesn't make a whole lot of sense...



a physical box in the warehouse contains 12 pieces of inventory, I'm assuming. I'm getting lost at the second sentence, but I think you’re saying that you’re physically counting 4 boxes with 7 pieces in each box. Then you say that you are manually doing the math to say that there are 2 boxes with 34 pieces total.



Now here’s where I’m confused…. What do you want Excel to do? You can do formulas to figure out all sorts of things, but you have to know what you want to figure out.

I would try to help but between your spelling errors and your very unclear description, I honestly have no idea what it is you're actually asking.



Can you go back and give more details? I'm pretty good at Excel and might be able to help.

Are the numbers to the main stunning of the / character continually one digit in length? if so, paste this formulation in D16 =SUMPRODUCT((N(proper(A1:A1000, a million)=proper(D15,a million)))*(B1:B1000)) in case your information is going previous row 1000, exchange the masses to a pair selection greater advantageous than what you have. The above formulation assumes all your information in column A starts off with g/z.

I think nobody can't understand which your explanation.

Please explain again with another words
