I have a dashboard that provides counts of certain data. One of the counts needs to be date-driven in the respect that it needs to show the count for the current year. How do I build that into the widget?
You'll need to start by creating that metric somewhere. In a new sheet you can use a cross-sheet formula to count all of the projects that are in your project sheet. I imagine you can do that by looking at the due-date.
The IFerror will count cells without dates or that are blank as 0.
The final formula should look something like this...
=COUNTIFS({Name of Cross Sheet refrerence}, IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = 2019)
Then in your metric widget. You will point to the sheet that you just created and include that metric. I like to use one cross sheet reference for most of my dashboard calculations. But occasionally, I have to use more than one if we are performing metrics on multiple sheets.
I am in conditional formatting and cant seem to figure out how it should be set up. This is what I am looking for. I'd like a cell to turn red if it has been 365 days since the date that is listed in the cell. Any help is greatly appreciated!
The below formula should give me the total price of a project filtering it by the panel name and the area. I do not want to include a certain supplier. Also Level 1 is totalling the child rows, so I want to filter that out as it give an inaccurate overall total of the price allocated to the panel and area. I can't figure…
I've created a dashboard with multiple graphs using data from the same report. I have added the report to the dashboard as well and set up the filter for use in the dashboard. Is this filter transferable to the graphs as well, given i can filter the report in the dashboard?
