ultimate short custom number formatting - K, M, B, T, etc., Q, D, Googol

I have a spreadsheet full of data that each number represent thousand
For example: 1,745 represent 1,745,000
How can I convert each number (in the same cell) to represent millions so 1.745 will represent 1,745,000?
In MS Excel it can be done with special paste divide by 1000.
What's the equivalent in Google spreadsheet ?
Thanks!
Sheets' concept of thousands and millions is the same as Excel's (not everything else is however). Sheets does not, at the moment, have a direct equivalent of Excel's Paste Special with Operation.
If you want to convert each number representing thousands (in the same cell) to represent millions in Sheets then you will have to have each be divided by 1000. If you want this without helper cells you probably will need to write a script, though you could edit each cell individually or might export to Excel, use their inbuilt code and import back into Sheets, if required there.
if the number is 1,745 you can't change it in the same cell to million equivalent
if the number is 1.745 you can change it in the same cell but only "visually" to million equivalent with custom number formatting:
note1: its only visual change if you keep one eye shut
note2: this applies to the sheet with US locale. if you want to reverse it use some European locale

Google Sheets: Moving daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly averages

Closed 24 days ago.
I've got a data set of 365 cells about the wave height per day, I want to figure out how to find when the highest average over 15 days is during the year. I am limited to using google sheets and have beginer to intermediate knowledge of google sheets which makes it hard to figure out how to write the function.
I have no clue how to get there, all i could figure out online is using the function to find the highest 10 values in a dataset, but not consecutive values.
With the use of SCAN, SEQUENCE and INDEX, you can navigate through the range, choosing ranges of 15 cells; and returning the average:
=SCAN("",SEQUENCE(COUNTA(A1:A)-14),LAMBDA(a,v,AVERAGE(INDEX(A:A,v):INDEX(A:A,v+14))))
Just by wrapping that into MAX would give you only the value. If you need also the range, can do something like this:
=SCAN("",SEQUENCE(COUNTA(A1:A)-14),LAMBDA(a,v,{"Rows: "&v&" to "&v+14,AVERAGE(INDEX(A:A,v):INDEX(A:A,v+14))}))
That would return:
With the help of SORTN you'll be able to find the highest value (or values, just change the first 1 after the closure of SCAN with the value you want):
=SORTN(SCAN("",SEQUENCE(COUNTA(A1:A)-14),LAMBDA(a,v,{"Rows: "&v&" to "&v+14,AVERAGE(INDEX(A:A,v):INDEX(A:A,v+14))})),1,1,2,0)
To have the actual values, use:
=LAMBDA(ind,FILTER(A:A,ROW(A:A)>=C1,ROW(A:A)<(C1+15)))(INDEX(SORTN(SCAN("",SEQUENCE(COUNTA(A1:A)-14),LAMBDA(a,v,{v,AVERAGE(INDEX(A:A,v):INDEX(A:A,v+14))})),1,1,2,0),,1))

How to SUM duration in Google Sheets?

Closed 8 months ago.
some time ago I ported an old timesheet to the google-timesheet to be able to share it online and have others modify it but didn't keeped it so I don't remember how I manage to do.
The goal is to compare two timing sheet, today I wanted to edit the sheet to be able add new datas and write timing in separate page sheet which simplify the comparation as I'll just have to import the data from the page and not rewrite it all the time. My issue is that I'm not enable to replicate on my new pages the format. What I would like is to have this exemple working

=SUM(above)
so that I can replicate the format on the other pages as I don't understand why it worked before but not now.
mm:ss.000 is the format I would like to have, but atm my format is [h]:mm:ss.000 and it seems that the hour markdown is necesary so I don't really mind if we need to keep the hour.
This is completely possible with google sheets. Enter the data in the format hh:mm:ss.ms, and use sum() (with a range, obv.) to sum the column. Then select the whole colume and apply a custom number format (data-> custom time/date). Using the dropdown to get the parts and typing the separators you can get Minute(1): Seconds(1).Milliseconds(3) which seems to be what you want.
For sheets to recognise the cell entry as a time it needs the hh: part. But you can certainly hide that in the display.

If the spreadsheet locale is set to something which uses , for the decimal point, you need to use that instead of . Google could definitely make that a lot clearer. If you have the time you might even want to open a bug report with them, as the examples in their docs don't work when the locale requires a ,.
As a bonus, you can bulk-convert using a formula like =replace(B2; find("."; B2); 1; ",") * 1 (where B2 is the cell to be converted). Drag down, copy and paste the values, and then format if need be.
use:
=ARRAYFORMULA(TEXT(SUM(IFERROR(TIMEVALUE("0:"&B1:B15))); "[m]:ss.000"))
I am trying to find a formula that will give me the count of unique dates a persons' name appears in one of two different columns and/or both columns.
I have a set of data where a person's name may show up in a "driver" column or a "helper" column, multiple times over the course of one day. Throughout the day some drivers might also be helpers and some days a driver may come in for duty but only as a helper. Basically all drivers can be helpers, but not all helpers can be drivers.
I've attached a link to a sample sheet for more clarity.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GqNa1hrViX4B6mkL3wWcqEsy87gmdw77DhkhIaswLyI/edit?usp=sharing
I've created a REPORTS tab with a SORT(UNIQUE(FLATTEN)) Formula to give me a list of the names that appear in the DATA Tab.
I'm looking for a way to count the unique dates a name from the name (Column A of the REPORTS Tab) appears in either of the two columns (Column B and/or C of the DATA Tab) to determine the total number of days worked so I can calculate the total number of days off over the range queried.
I've tried several iterations of countif, countunique, and countuniqueifs but cannot seem to find a way to return the correct values.
Any advice on how to make this work would be appreciated.
I think if you put this formula in cell b7 you'll be set. You can drag it down.
=Counta(Unique(filter(DATA!A:A,(DATA!C:C=A7)+(DATA!B:B=A7))))
Here's a working version of your file.
For anyone interested, Google Sheets' Filter function differs slightly from Excel's Filter function because Sheets attempts to make it easier for users to apply multiple conditions by simply separating each parameter with a comma. Example: =filter(A:A,A:A<>"",B:B<>"bad result") will provide different results between the Sheets and Excel.
Excel Filter requires users to specify multiple conditions within parenthesis and denote each criterion be flagged with an OR condition with a + else an AND condition with a multiplication sign *. While this can appear daunting and bizarre to multiply arrays that have text in it, it allows for more flexibility.
To Google's credit, if one follows the required Excel Syntax (as I did in this answer) then the functions will behave the same.
delete what you got and use:
=QUERY(QUERY(UNIQUE({DATA!A:B; DATA!A:A, DATA!C:C}),
"select Col2,count(Col1),"&D2&"-count(Col2)
where Col2 is not null
group by Col2"),
"offset 1", 0)

I am working on some data where i have to import the raw data from sheet Prepaid to the Master sheet but am seeing that certain number cells dont get imported like in cell B18 in sheet named Master. If I convert the raw data cell to number it works but it converts 11892667013478301 to 11892667013478300 leading to a mismatch. Is this is a size restriction on the number

From QUERY docs:
In case of mixed data types in a single column, the majority data type determines the data type of the column for query purposes. Minority data types are considered null values.
Since most values in your column end with two 0s, they don't reach the digit limit of 15, and are treated as numbers. The values that reach 15 digits are treated as string values, and since those are a minority in the column, they are considered null values.
To avoid this, you can force all values in the column to be treated as strings via TO_TEXT, and apply the QUERY to that.
=QUERY(ARRAYFORMULA(TO_TEXT(Prepaid!E:F)),"select * where Col1 is not null")
I'll delete my other answer, since yes, the issue seems to be that you are hitting the maximum number of significant digits, 15, for a number in Google Sheets. You can prove this by tring to add any small number to any of your (numeric) cells in Prepaid!F - the number doesn't increase, since it can't display any more significant digits.
The majority of your values are 15 signifcant digits plus two zeroes on the end. But F18 and F28 end in 01, not 00, so they are treated as strings. Forcing them to a number "discards" the last two significant digits, making them 00.
Perhaps the easiest answer for you is to force all of columns E and F to be text strings, rather than numeric values, and then they can all be dealt with equally, such as running queries against them.
Let me know if this helps at all.
I am creating a home budget for myself in Google Sheets, working in Chrome on Windows 10. In the end, the budget will be composed of separate sheets for each month, containing tables for each Friday (payday) within that month. All such tables will follow a certain format and will pull arrays of budget data from an auxiliary sheet.
However, trial-and-error (mostly error) is abundant, and one quails at the thought of having to paste corrections across 52 tables. Is there any way to have each table emulate a formula set down in a template? For example, ideally, my template would contain something like:
=INDEX(IF(condition(relativeCell),namedRange1,namedRange2)
and the final product would pull that formula (with relative reference) to each table. If I discover a mistake or need to make a change, I can simply change the template, and all of the live tables would update their formulas.
Can this be done in Google Sheets?
Failing that, I already have a function that returns a cell's formula as string text. Can this be used to get the desired effect?
there is a formula called INDIRECT which does exactly that:
