Truncate & Round

TRUNC: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/trunc-function-8b86a64c-3127-43db-ba14-aa5ceb292721

TRUNC(number, [num_digits])


ROUND(number, num_digits)

As a Finance & Accounting Specialist, I incorporated the TRUNC and ROUND function because our excel billing numbers had trailing numbers after two decimals while our billing numbers on the client invoices only shows up to 2 decimals. When it comes to reporting our numbers of what we sent out to the client, then we must report those numbers that only goes up to 2 decimals.

This can be done as shown below

GETPIVOTDATA The GETPIVOTDATA function returns visible data from a PivotTable. Honestly, at its simplest, just use "=" and then click on a cell and then the whole syntax will autopopulate. That is how I returned the Billing Gross, Net, and Commission YTD. I think is helpful to use a data validation list. First, use "=" and reference a cell and then just change the item to reference the cell that has data validation. For example, there when you change the media type on the green cell F12, you can get its unbilled gross, net, and commission. Note that the data validation list dropdown may not appear unless you open the workbook on your Excel Desktop and open the workbook in Edit mode.

Xlookup specific value in the middle of a string

EXCELIFSUN Credits goes to the YouTuber EXCELSIFUN. I was familiar with idea of using MID and XLOOKUP.  However, I liked how he pointed out by adding a zero, it can convert the text after using the MID function to a number so that we can use the xlookup. Also, if you highlight all the cells, then enter the formula in the first cell of the highlighted array, then Ctrl + Enter, you can autofill the formula throughout that whole array.
