Learn how to combine multiple sheets to one master using FILTER function with an added column of tab names and row numbers to identify the data source. #learngooglesheets
This doesn't let you see the formula, though, so... ={FILTER('Partial Data 1'!A2:G,'Partial Data 1'!A2:A"");FILTER('Partial Data 2'!A2:G,'Partial Data 2'!A2:A"");FILTER('Partial Data 3'!A2:G,'Partial Data 3'!A2:A"")}
Thanks great video. Let's say I want to add a specific static range from all the tabs to the master tab (except Master tab of course) as well as new/added duplicated tabs.
Thanks this was dead useful. Been following your tutorials since long and have been very helpful for me in creating processes in the organization that I work. I work with an NGO that skills persons with Disabililties and in Skilling Data management is the key to successful outcomes. Initially I used Import range +. Query to combine into a master sheet, however it seems that query has this condition that either numeric or those with Alphabets and numeric will be displayed. And therefore I was not able to view all the contact numbers which were separated by commas. But using import range + filter it works like a charm. Thanks 👍
This is nice if you only have a few tabs to row merge, but I have 40. It seems like writing out the FILTER() syntax for 40 tab case would be prone to error. Is there a better way?
Thank you again sir. You inspiring me to create some creativity like "my own formula". Now, finally I can do "value_counts" that I just found in Python, I couldn't find it in excel/spreadsheet before (Note: value_counts is some function in Python, which people usually using it to count frequency, like countif in excel/spreadsheet, but the output not just for one value, its could be some--depending on how much unique value in your column. Here "my own value_counts formula": =array_constrain(sort(ArrayFormula(split(ArrayFormula(UNIQUE(filter(A1:A,A1:A""))&", "&COUNTIF(A1:A,UNIQUE(filter(A1:A,A1:A"")))),", ",false)),2,false),counta(A1:A),2) result would be like this (in two columns): data5 6 data3 3 data4 3 data2 2 data6 1 data7 1 May this inspiring-you-back or some people who need to solve that value_counts problem :)
@@ExcelGoogleSheets Yes Sir. I Consider that function before, but it has limited result for me. Frequency function output just--as short as I knew--about range, but for me--in this case--need count-information for every single unique value. Or, (in huge probability) frequency function can do something-amazing that I don't know... Oya, I just develope that "my own formula" to handle if theres any situation--maybe--my cell have some data (for example separate by comma and space).. it would be like this: =array_constrain(sort(ArrayFormula(split(ArrayFormula(unique(transpose(SPLIT(join(", ",filter(A1:A,A1:A"")),", ",false)))&", "&COUNTIF(transpose(SPLIT(join(", ",A1:A15),", ",false)),unique(transpose(SPLIT(join(", ",filter(A1:A,A1:A"")),", ",false))))),", ",false)),2,false),counta(transpose(SPLIT(join(", ",A1:A15),", ",false))),2) Thank's for your feedback and lecture Sir. I will consider your advice.
it is great sharing. but is it possible to sort Ascending by Column A - Date in the Master Sheets? As i try to sort using the Google Sheets features, it is sort in Ascending manner according to the sheets itself.
I have a question about this, I have done a similar function to pull data from a master sheet onto a seperate sheet which is filterest by a column, Is there a way for me to make edits on the new filtered sheet which will also make changes on the master sheet without corrupting any data?, The formula i used to pull the date is - =FILTER(Master!A:O,Master!L:L="Tas"), The new sheet is called Tas (not changing the Tas value in the collumn) it removes all the data which was pulled from the master which i assumes is currupting the code?
Thank you so much before this I have to apply Vlookup and If formula to get data from multiple sheets and keeping with the Unique number is really hard.
I'm experiencing an odd issue. For whatever reason, for the first dataset/worksheet I set the filter feature for, it doesn't pull in the very first selection. The formula aligns with what you have inputted and I even tried referencing different work sheets first. The first entry on whatever sheet I choose to start the formula, It just appears blank and is absent from the master file. So if the first worksheet has an entry with a name say Tim, in the first row that whole first row is blank and Tim is missing from the master file. All other data sets pulls in fine. Any suggestions/thoughts on why this might be happening?
Greetings! Is there a possibility to prevent duplicates with a unique ID across multiple spreadsheet when differrent users are working on the same spreadsheet but different sheets... Can this be solved through appscript or just formulas.....
hi. thank you for the tutorial. really simple and helpful. Do you have tutorial where you are not just combining the data from partial data but directly sort or rank the data according to criteria?
Hi! Very informative video and easy to understand. May I know if there is a way in which all data from each individual tabs (in this case, Partial data 1,2,3) to be displayed automatically in an ascending order (for example, by date)? I hope you could help me out! Thank you.
what is a script that would pull information from a series of cells (all same locations) from multiple tabs? im essentially trying to pull data from a particular range of cells, from multiple tabs (names will change) to a master page to give me a "table of contents" of information and not have to scan 30+ tabs
Can I combine multiple tabs from multiple workbooks into a separate workbook? For example: I have 10 different workbooks and each workbook has 5 tabs. Each workbook has the same 5 tabs and I want to combine all 10 workbooks into 1 master workbook with the same 5 tabs. Is this possible using google sheets workbooks?
I want to get only tab name in my Merged Sheet, i saw your Comment as " Add Left(,0) around row function. Left(ROW(A:A),0)" but i confused, Actually where i used in my formula, =filter({'Sheet1'!B3:R, " Employee Contact No."&ROW('Sheet1'!B3:B)},'Sheet1'!B3:B"")
Hi, thank u for that video, it's very helpful, I did the same as you did but I don't want that the ROW NUMBER appears in the column from where that info comes from, I tried to delete the row code but it shows me an error, can u please help me out? thanks
Super duper thanks to this. i solved my problem. My question, in the master sheet, I want to filter the value from largest to smallest. How do I do that?
These are great videos, thanks very much. Is it possible in a formula to have an array of sheets/tabs that get data from all sheets/tabs between, maybe first and last sheet/tab? I'm trying to create a master sheet that sums up my totals, but i am always adding new sheets/tabs to my workbook. i've tried using =sumallsheets, but i can't get it to work.
how can I make this process reciprocal? Currently if I update the tabs they update the master but if I change the master the tabs dont change is there an easy way to do this
@@neeldesai5823 in case you still need formula: =SORT({FILTER({Sheet1!A3:D, "Data1"&LEFT(ROW(Sheet1!A3:A), 0)}, Sheet1!A3:A""); FILTER({Sheet2!A3:D, "Data2"&LEFT(ROW(Sheet2!A3:A), 0)}, Sheet2!A3:A""); FILTER({Sheet3!A3:D, "Data3"&LEFT(ROW(Sheet3!A3:A), 0)}, Sheet3!A3:A"") })
I want to check if A1 is in column B, if yes then want to omit the location at which it is in column B. If it is in location say B5 then want to output the value C5. Could I do this ?
I created a google sheet, that users can make a copy of, that imports data from a "master" sheet. Is there a limit on how many sheets can import from the single "master" sheet?
Sir, i have a question, why do my data wouldnt load when the filter fucntion is applied. 1. Data i mentioned is not raw, since i applied arrayformula onto them 2. So, when i apply the Filter function to combine all the processed data, it only shows the first row which obviously has the arrayformula in the cells. What i find it weird is that sometimes all the data appears when i refresh a couple times how do i fix this?, Thank you!
I like to ask that whether I can enter data in Master sheet (on columns no included in the query command) for further Data . I have tried but whenever I enter any individual sheet data the data entered in master sheet get mixed up. Any suggestions please
How can I do this and put different privacies on different sheets? I don't want certain people to see other sheets or the master. Just want their own sheets to populate into one master sheet. Thanks!
This will simply update better if you change worksheet names and stuff like that. Indirect will fail if you change the name of the worksheet. I don't think speed is going to be any better or worse, but impossible to tell without doing some testing.
@@ExcelGoogleSheets I finally managed to get it to work with a hyperlink. =SORT({ ifna(FILTER({HYPERLINK("#gid=690531872&range=A"&ROW('Yard Responses'!$A$4:A),'Yard Responses'!$A$2:$A),'Yard Responses'!$B$2:$B,'Yard Responses'!$D$2:$D,'Yard Responses'!$F$2:$F},'Yard Responses'!$A$2:$A>=$B$6,'Yard Responses'!$A$2:$A
Great video, I have learned a lot from your videos! I have been having an issue sorting a master list once I have it compiled. Is there a way to do that? When I do sort, it sorts in chunks, so the first list will sort, then the second, etc. rather than sorting all together.
Data source (eg. B2) attached with a link. Filter(A:G,A:A””) can show the data (B2) with that link, while Query(A:G,”select * where A is not null”,0) can’t.
Thanks for the tutorial! Just one question: couldn't you simplify things by just omitting the FILTER function completely? Then the formula would be as follows: ={'Partial Data 1'!A2:G ; 'Partial Data 2'!A2:G ; 'Partial Data 3'!A2:G} That way, you also don't have the problem of having to combine multiple columns to be sure blanks will be included, because everything will be included... Or am I missing something?
I have a question but first, Thank you for posting this cuz I know next to nothing about spreadsheets! Question, how can I make the master sheet sortable? When I try to sort all data disappears with an "error" where the formula is. I'm using the sheet to inventory and want to sort so see like items together from all three sheets. Is that possible?
Thanks a lot! Could you please let me know how to make the formula ignore any empty pages (i.e. if one of the filter fuctions inside the array return nothing). I tried iferror(filter,"") before each filter, and tried to add if(iserror(filter....),"",filter) but both didn't work. Thank you again!
I just tried iferror(filter,{"","","","","","","",""}) to add a hole empty row and it seems to work file. I am wondering if you have a better idea. Thank you again for your help! The formula now looks like the following =sort(QUERY({ iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP1",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP1'!A2:A),0),'EMP1'!A2:G},'EMP1'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP2",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP2'!A2:A),0),'EMP2'!A2:G},'EMP2'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP3",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP3'!A2:A),0),'EMP3'!A2:G},'EMP3'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP4",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP4'!A2:A),0),'EMP4'!A2:G},'EMP4'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP5",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP5'!A2:A),0),'EMP5'!A2:G},'EMP5'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP6",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP6'!A2:A),0),'EMP6'!A2:G},'EMP6'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP7",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP7'!A2:A),0),'EMP7'!A2:G},'EMP7'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP8",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP8'!A2:A),0),'EMP8'!A2:G},'EMP8'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP9",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP9'!A2:A),0),'EMP9'!A2:G},'EMP9'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}); iferror(Filter({vlookup("EMP10",Assets!A:G,2,0)&LEFT(ROW('EMP10'!A2:A),0),'EMP10'!A2:G},'EMP10'!A2:A""),{"","","","","","","",""}) },"Select * Where Col2 is not null"),2,FALSE)
Hi, It's very nice and informative video. Learnt a lot and got to implement this as well. Just one question, when I am doing this for multiple sheets and if one of the sheet is empty, I am getting an ARRAY_LITERAL error. What can be done to solve that? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the video. Very helpful. I have run into an issue wherein the data has been pulled from the various worksheets, but each data set is separated by roughly a thousand blank rows. Thanks in advance for the help
@@ExcelGoogleSheets Not the case. Definitely have the blank filter and I have selected blank cells and deleted them just in case there might been some data
Once the master list is done and ready, I want the users to put comments in column I for each row. What is the way to make sure these comments in cells will stay and match the exact row they were entered for?
Probably, I haven't really used QUERY for this type of thing for a long time. In practice I only use QUERY function when I need to summarize data, kind of like a pivot table in a formula.
WIll it still work if i dont add the row number at the end of the location string? Cause i have tried the same thing just did not add the "&ROW()" there, it is giving out an errror? Any suggestions?
I only want to merge single column tabs to my master single column tab, not sure how to do it, i tried this =FILTER(Tab1!B3:B,Tab1!A3:A,Tab2!B3:B,Tab2!A3:A"") after this i get FILTER has mismatched range sizes. Expected row count: 999. column count: 1. Actual row count: 7, column count: 1
Thank You for this. How do I get only the Worksheet Name without the Row Number?. For e.g. in your sheet what if we would want to only have the text Data Tab 1 without the the Row number. Just eliminating &ROW() did not seem to do the job for me and I received an error.
I would really appreciate it if you could explain how that worked. I tried reading about LEFT but was not able to figure out the logic behind it working.
I am wondering how to remove the row calculation once that is added, for example, I no longer want the extra column to show the sheet and row the data originated from, rather, just the sheet. I am using this data to calculate percentages that come from each sheet. However, just removing the row function is causing errors for me. Any advice on this?
Hii, Your video is very useful and I finally reached to your video after a lot of search. But I am getting an error (Function ARRAY_ROW parameter 2 has mismatched row size. Expected: 6. Actual: 1.) when I use this formula : - =FILTER({B2:G11,"DG"},B2:B11"") I want to add the text A in the first filter, and then B in the next filter. Thanks in Advance
Ok I got your formula, and also got to know that why you included row no.. Can you tell us a trick, if I want to get only tab name (row no not required)
Thanks a lot.. its great video. but i need a help. i tried this formula, but if one of my sheet was blank, the cell return in #VALUE!. is there any tips so it will ignore blank sheets?
