in this course we will learn about running totals in Excel tables, a vital skill for data analysis and tracking cumulative changes over time. Running totals allow you to see the progressive accumulation of values within a specific range, providing valuable insights into trends and patterns.
We will start by covering the basics, including how to create an Excel table and input data. You will learn how to use fundamental formulas and functions to calculate running totals. For example, we will use the SUM function to compute running totals for each row in the table, enabling you to observe the continuous accumulation of values.
We will also explore advanced techniques, such as using the SUMIFS function to calculate running totals based on multiple criteria and employing PivotTables to create dynamic analyses. You will learn how to create charts for running totals to visualize data trends effectively.
Additionally, we will examine practical applications, including tracking sales, managing inventory, and analyzing financial data. You will learn how to customize tables and formulas to meet your specific needs and how to automatically update running totals when data is added or modified.
