HERE'S A REAL BRAIN TWISTER:

[Guest]

now I need to know how to formulate each cell next to the appropriate
salesperson to calculate running total gross for each seperate salesperson.
is this possible? here's what I need:

salesman TOTAL UNITS TOTAL GROSS
CJ 0 $-
FC 0 $-
JL 0 $-
SC 0 $-
TH 0 $-
RA 0 $-
HS 0 $-

How is total gross calculated? Is total units multiplied by ? And what is raw
data for each salesperson used to get total units?

It looks like a SUMIF solution:

=SUMIF(A1:A100,"CJ",B1:b100) where col A has Salesperson and column B has
data (units) to totalled.

You might want to take a look at the Data > Subtotals feature. It will take
a list of multiple entries for each salesperson and accumulate each one's
total.

here is my header row below; the salespeople won't have their own separate
spreadsheet; the totals are at the bottom, but since the data will be input
at random per salesperson, how can I get the "gross" figure that's next to
each individual person calculate as a running total for that specific person?

SALE PRICE COST GROSS SALES FIN TYPE DEL. DATE MTD
$ $ $ $
