Filtering and subtotalling

How do you filter a list and then provide subtotal figures for selected criteria and display the subtotals on the sheet?

RE: Filtering and subtotalling

Hi Cavell

Thank you for your question - this is an interesting one.

Perhaps if you try applying subtotals first, then filtering afterwards, this might provide what you are looking for.

Otherwise you can set up an advanced filter (Data - Filter - Advanced filter) to apply the filter and choose to use the Copy to another location option to separate the filter result from the list/table of data; then apply subtotals to this.

I hope these suggestions help.
Amanda

Excel tip:

LARGE and SMALL functions and their uses

Two of Excel's most common functions are the MAX and MIN functions which will display the largest (MAX) or smallest (MIN) value in a series. What if you need the 2nd or 3rd largest or smallest values instead of the largest or smallest?

The =LARGE(array,n) returns the nth largest value of a series.

The =SMALL(array,n) function returns the nth smallest value of a series.

In both functions, 'n' represents the order of the number you want to display. For example, putting in 2 as n will give you the second highest number; putting in 3 as n will give you the third highest number.
