Key Take Away:
In this live webinar, Excel expert David H. Ringstrom, CPA, shows you how to create dynamic accounting reports for any month of the year on a single worksheet.
Overview:
Many Excel users will build a worksheet for each month of the year, which can be cumbersome to revise. Rather than using such an unwieldy method, David explains how to utilize such functions as VLOOKUP, OFFSET, and SUM together to quickly create accounting reports that toggle to any reporting period—all with a couple of mouse clicks.
Why Should You Attend:
David will demonstrate effective ways to export data from your accounting package so you can create a “set-and-forget” link to your accounting data in Excel.
David typically teaches from Excel 2016, but he points out any differences in earlier versions of Excel. He’s also happy to demonstrate techniques in a specific version of Excel upon request. David’s detailed handouts serve as reference tools you can fall back on after participating in one of his webinars. In addition, he provides an Excel workbook that includes a majority of the examples he uses during each webinar.
