Calculation of debtor days - Help!!!!1

K

Krish

Hi All,

Please help in this complicated problem with reference to the annexure
given below:

Problem Statement:
1 I have three Tables
Sales Data
Debtors data
Month Data

2 I have to calculate debtor days by each manager and by each
workgroup

3 I have more than 2000 datapoints, (around 98 manager names and 16
workgroups)

4 In the calc sheet you would see that I have calculated the debtor
days for Manager A for DEC (but any point I could be asked for earlier
months also like ex Nov or Jul)
5 The procedure is to deduct the latest months sales or the month for
which it is to be calculated from the debtors
The process is continued by deducting on month prior (if we are
looking at dec then dec debtors - dec sales = x1 then x1-nov sales=x2
then x3= x2-oct sales and so on)
This is done till a negative amt is arrived and then the
proportionate days is taken when it becomes negative.


a How can I automate this process
b What should be the structure of this data
c How can I update when next months data arrives
d Since mananger and workgroup are different columns how do I work
around
