Use: SUMIF function Logic: From the Sales worksheet: Match each customer s ID (Column A) with Sales sheet Column B. Sum matching values from Sales sheet Column E (sales amounts). Formula Example: =SUMIF(Sales!$B$4:$B$655, A4, Sales!$E$4:$E$655) Use absolute cell references (F4) for ranges since they ll repeat for each customer.
2. Apply Discounts (Column D)
Use: Nested IF function Conditions: If total sales > 50,000 "15%" If total sales > 15,000 "10%" Otherwise "" (no discount) Formula Example: =IF(C4>50000, "15%", IF(C4>15000, "10%", ""))
3. Count Sales Below Threshold (Column
G) Use: COUNTIF function to count how many total sales are below a value in F4 Formula Example (G4): =COUNTIF($C$4:$C$11, "<" & F4) Use ampersand (&) to join comparison with cell value.
4. Find Incremental Counts (Column H)
Show change between cumulative counts Formula: H4: =G4 H5 onward: =G5 - H4 Then autofill down to H11.
5. Apply Conditional Formatting (Column
C) Color-code based on total sales: 20,000 Green 5,000 Red 2,000 Yellow Steps: 1. Go to Home > Conditional Formatting > New Rule > Use a formula. 2. Use this logic (fix column C, not row): Green: =$C4>20000 Red: =$C4>5000 Yellow: =$C4>2000
3. Order matters highest value first to
avoid lower rules overriding higher ones. 4. Use Manage Rules to adjust or reorder.
