ANALYZING DATA WITH POWER TOOLS AND CREATING MACROS

• To complete this project, you need to add the Developer tab. If this tab does not display, click Excel in the file menu, then click Preferences. Click Ribbon and toolbar. In the Main Tabs area of the Excel Options dialog box, click the Developer check box, then click save.
• If a dialog box about enabling or disabling macros appears, click to enable macros.

• PROJECT STEPS

1. Ravi Mehta is the finance director for the Home Security Group of Franklin National, a North American manufacturing company. Ravi is developing an Excel workbook that his managers can use to track and interpret data about customers, contracts, and invoices. He asks for your help in setting up tools to analyze the data and to automate the workbook to make it easier to use.
   
   Go to the Home Page worksheet. Ravi wants to include a list of links to resources his managers are likely to need. However, the first link he added is unnecessary.
   
   Remove the hyperlink from the text in cell C4.
2. Ravi wants to make it easy for users to navigate to the other worksheets. Add links to other places in the workbook as follows:
   1. In cell C5, insert a link to cell A1 of the Customers worksheet.
   2. In cell C6, insert a link to cell A1 of the Contracts worksheet.
   3. In cell C7, insert a link to cell A1 of the Invoices worksheet.
3. Ravi also wants users to be able to access archived contract data as they prepare new contracts. Ravi stores the archived data in an Excel workbook. Add a link to the file as follows:
   1. In cell C8, insert a link to the file Support_EX19_10a_Mac_Archive.xlsx.
   2. Add the following text as a ScreenTip that explains what happens when users click the link:
      Open an archive of contract data.
4. The Franklin National website provides information Ravi's managers use every day. In cell C9, add a link to the www.fn.example.com website.
5. Ravi also wants to include a way that managers can request information from the home office of Franklin National. In cell C10, add a link to the info@fn.example.com email address.
6. Ravi's plan is that when users click the Add Customer button in the range D3:E3, the Customers worksheet opens and Excel adds a new, blank record to the Customer table, where users can insert the new customer information. Record a macro to automate the Add Customer button as follows:
   1. Enable all macros in the workbook (if necessary), and then display the Developer tab on the ribbon.
   2. Record a macro stored in this workbook using Add_Customer as the name of the macro.
   3. While recording the macro, display the Customers worksheet.
   4. Also, while recording the macro, add a new blank record to the end of the Customers table.
   5. Stop recording the macro.
   6. Assign the Add_Customer macro to the Add Customer button and then run the Add_Customer macro to make sure it inserts a new record at the bottom of the Customers table on the Customers worksheet.
7. Ravi has already created similar macros to add a new contract record and a new invoice record. Return to the Home Page worksheet, and assign the macros to buttons as follows:
   1. Assign the Add_Contract macro to the Add Contract button.
   2. Assign the Add_Invoice macro to the Add Invoice button.
8. Go to the Customers worksheet. Ravi wants to create PivotTables that include customer, contract, and invoice data. Ravi wants to list and total each contract amount by city and signing date. Create a PivotTable that displays this information as follows:
   1. Rename the Sheet4 worksheet, using Contracts by City as the name of the worksheet.
   2. Create a PivotTable based on the Contract table in cell B4 of the Contracts by City worksheet.
   3. Display the City field values as row headings.
   4. Display the SigningDate field values as column headings.
   5. Add the ContractAmt field to the Values area to sum the field values.
   6. Group the signing dates to display them as years and quarters only. (Hint: Expand the year headings to display the quarter headings, if necessary.)
   7. Remove all subtotals from the PivotTable.
   8. Format the Sum of ContractAmt field using the Currency number format with 2 decimal places and the $ symbol.
9. Ravi also wants to list the paid and unpaid invoices for each month and then filter them by contract type. Create a PivotTable that displays this information as follows:
   1. Rename the Sheet3 worksheet, using Invoices by Month as the name of the worksheet.
   2. Create a PivotTable based on the Invoice table in cell B3 of the Invoices by Month worksheet.
   3. Display the SigningDate field values as row headings.
   4. Display the InvoicePaid field values as column headings.
   5. Add the InvoiceAmt field values to the Values area to sum the field values.
   6. Use the ContractType field as a filter.
   7. Group the signing dates to display them as years and months only.
   8. Format the Sum of InvoiceAmt field using the Currency number format with 2 decimal places and the $ symbol.
10. Ravi wants to show invoices for security plans only and want to make the PivotTable easier to interpret. Modify the PivotTable as follows to meet Ravi's requests:
    1. Use Unpaid as the column heading in cell C4.
    2. Use Paid as the column heading in cell D4.
    3. Filter the PivotTable to display invoices for the Security plan and Security plan for apartment building contract types.
11. Return to the Customers worksheet. In the range J2:K5, Ravi wants to list the total contract amounts for three cities. Extract this information from the PivotTable on the Contracts by City worksheet as follows:
    1. In cell K3, use the GETPIVOTDATA function to display the total contract amount for Atlanta from the PivotTable on the Contracts by City worksheet (cell J9). (Hint: Type an equal sign in cell K3 and then click the cell containing the value you want the GETPIVOTDATA function to get from the PivotTable.)
    2. In cell K4, use the GETPIVOTDATA function to display the total contract amount for College Park from the PivotTable on the Contracts by City worksheet (cell J16).
    3. In cell K5, use the GETPIVOTDATA function to display the total contract amount for Dunwoody from the PivotTable on the Contracts by City worksheet (cell J20).
       Save the workbook, making sure to save it as a macro-enabled workbook.

If you can do a play by play in regards to the steps that would be great.
