Hi!
I have an doubt about how i can sum 12 last months or last semester or last quarter automatically when I add new month?
I attached an example.
Thanks:)
Hi Hava
You can give this a try. You will need to modify your headers to actual dates (all end-of-month dates) for this to work.
You may need to cover more columns to cater for future expansion.
I would have love to use an Excel Table for your range as it auto expands as you add columns.
Somehow Excel Tables converts the headers to Text so it will not work with the method I am showing you.
In the attachment you can enter any date and it will be converted to the end-of-month date for the summing.
The EOMONTH() function is used to calculate the dates which are 3, 6 or 12 months before the current date.
If you are unfamiliar with EOMONTH() you can take a look at this https://www.myonlinetraininghub.com/excel-eomonth-function
Hope this helps.

Many thanks Sunny! Sorry for the delay but it was very helpful !!
For dxample when I put 01/01/2017 .. all dates starting in first Day , This method doesnt work. There are other alternatives? Because my team really liked the idea but they said me : And if i forgot that february has 28 days...?
Thanks

Hi Hava
It does not matter what you entered in the Current Month date cell. If you entered 13/04/2016 it will be converted to either 30/04/2016 (E-O-M) or 01/04/2016 (B-O-M) depending on which Example you use.
Example 1 converts the current month date you entered to the End-Of-Month date so your data header must have E-O-M date.
Example 2 converts the current month date you entered to the Beginning-Of-Month date so your data header must have B-O-M date.
See if Example 2 is what you are looking for.
