Hi, sorry if this is an easy one but my company has a new Finance Director, and its been a looooooong week, and my brain has already decided to leave for the weekend... :Cry:
So here is the situation
I have a report where i summarise the lines of expenditure on construction works. These are covered under Purchase orders (PO) and each PO has a Passive and an Active line for the original PO value and a Passive and Active line for a 'Top-Up' (a project cost adjustment at final account - can be negative if were unlucky
)
The below is a pseudo dump to show the data setup in very cut down form.
- My new FD does not like all the Zeros in the Order Value column and has asked me to remove them - but only where both the Passive and Active are Zero - therefore in the example above i need to filter out the Top-Up rows for site ID 50999 but NOT for site 98765
I am sure this shouldn't be massively difficult to do (famous last words?), but given that my brain has left for the day this seems like Rocket Surgery to me.
Any help, guidance, or pointers gratefully received.
Have a great weekend.
David
PS - I'm using Excel 2016 - so new techniques if any in Office 365 wont work here.
