Hi,

I have a sheet, in which, col A contains name of suppliers (sorted
alphabatically) and col B contains qtys which was delivered by the
supplier.

Now i have get the sum of the qty based on the supplier.

Supplier Name    Sum of Delivered Qty
AAAAA                        56
AAAAA                        30
AAAAA                        17
AAAAA                        8
AAAAA                        8
AAAAA                        1
AAAAA                       10
BBBB                       20
BBBB                       40
BBBB                       55
BBBB                       65
BBBB                        8
BBBB                        1
BBBB                       10

is there any formula, which will give me the sum, supplier wise. I know
this can be achieved by doing pivot, but i do not want to do a Pivot
because after the sum, total by supplier will be divided by each
deliverd qty.

Hope my problem is clear.

Thanks,
Navin

Hi

Try
=SUMIF(A:A,"AAAA",B:B)

Better still, make a list of suppliers in say column E, then in F1 enter
=SUMIF(A:A,E1,B:B)
and copy down

Navin,

You said "after the sum, total by supplier will be divided by each deliverd
qty."  I suspect you may have meant the other way around, to yield the
percentage of the supplier's total of each delivered quantity .  Is that the
case?

If so, a SUMPRODUCT formula can be used in each row to get the supplier.  In
C2 you could use:
=B2/SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$10=A2)*($B$2:$B$10))
and copy down.
