EXCEL.SUM OF DIFFERENT COLUMS AND LINES ON DIFFERENT SHEET REPEAT

[Guest]

if sheet one colum c has tobacco,gas,food, ect. and colum d has totals of day
and there repeated lines like this down the colum. how do I get the sum of
all lines that say tobacco, or gas, or food, ect to auto compute on another
sheet?

Here are 2 ways:

Use a Pivot Table where the layout would be:
ROWS: Category
DATA: Sum of Totals

or a formula like this would do it:

=SUMIF(C1:C100,"food",D1100)
returns the total for "food" lines.

Adjust range references to suit your situation.

Does that help?

If you want the items on Sheet1 summarized on Sheet2, then on Sheet2 the
formula would be more like this:

=SUMIF(Sheet1!C1:C100,"food",Sheet1!D1100)
returns the total for "food" lines.

and if on Sheet2:
A1: Food
B1: =SUMIF(Sheet1!C1:C100,A1,Sheet1!D1100)
returns the total of Food items from Sheet1

this didnt seem to work. I copied and past the formula. and tried typing it
in. cant seem to get it to work. any other ideas.

It's difficult to figure out what's not working without more details.
Can you post an example of the formula you are trying to use along with any
other pertinent information: sheet names, ranges, etc?

sheet one:shift reports completed. there is a lot of information on the
sheet. I need to transfer each total so that i can use it for sales tax and
other business reasons. I dont need it to total yet. just transfer without
copy and past each one of them.. if you have an email i will send you a
sample sheet. mine is (e-mail address removed).
thank you

OK, Mark....See if this works for you:

L2: $5 PHONE
L3: $10 PHONE
L4: TOBACCO
L5: GROCERIES
L6: DRINKS
L7: OIL
L8: FOOD
L9: ICE
L10: GAS
L11: PAPERS
L12: OFF ROAD
L13: DIESEL
L14: KERO
L15: TOTAL

M2: =SUMIF($X$2:$X$111,L2,$Y$2:$Y$111)
Copy that formula down through M14

M15: =SUM(M2:M14)

Does that help?
