i have to calculate difference between two sheets and save it in spearte worksheet
Добрый день,
Скажите пожалуйста, как можно перенести данные из нескольких тысяч таблиц в одну? структура у всех файлов одинаковая. пример столбцов: компания, инн, сайт, тел.. т.е. значения в столбцах разные, а структура одна.
Добрый день, Екатерина.
Спасибо за вопрос. Наш Copy Sheets может Вам помочь, однако, из-за большого обьема данных мы рекомендуем обарбатывть таблицы группами. Опция Add Files на втором шаге позволит быстро добавлять нужные файлы.
Я не согласен с этими рекомендациями. Для столь большого количества файлов ищите инструмент, который работает напрямую с файлами, минуя Excel. Сам Excel просто "умрет" от такого их количества.
I'm trying to combine multiple sheets into one work book.I was able to do in older version but not on this version. I need each sheet from separate files combined into one workbook.
Hello Aaron,
Thank you for contacting us.
The thing is, we have rearranged and renamed some of the tools in newer versions of our add-in. The option you're looking for is now located in the Copy Sheets tool. We've replied your original request via email as well, please check your Inbox. Thank you.
Is there a way to include the source cell formatting when using the consolidate sheets function? The numbers that I am consolidating have their cells filled with a color based on job location...
Hello Brandy,
Thank you for contacting us.
I'm sorry, but our Consolidate Sheets doesn't preserve formatting at the moment. If however, you use Combine Sheets to group your data, there is an option to preserve the formatting of the original data. Please try it, maybe it will work even better for you.
I have two worksheets I need to combine into one.
The first worksheet has the following headings:
Client ID
Invoice no.
Invoice Date
Invoice Amount
The second worksheet has the followiing headings:
Client ID
Client Name
Invoice No.
Invoice Date
Invoice Amount
Gross Invoice Amount
I want to combine the two so that where Invoice No., Client ID, and invoice amount match, then Client Name and Gross Invoice Amount get populated on the same line.
Any ideas?

I need to combine different data from 2 sheets. The student ID is the common field on both sheets.
Hi, Natricia,
Thank you for your comment.
Your task can be easily solved with the help of two Ablebits tools, both are part of Ultimate Suite for Excel: Combine Sheets and Merge Duplicates.
Please take the following steps:
1. Open the sheets you want to combine.
2. Find the Combine Sheets icon in the Merge group under the Ablebits Data tab.
3. On the first step, check both sheets you need to combine.
4. Select the columns: ID and other columns you want to see combined.
5. Step 3: Select additional options or simply click Next.
6. Select the place to locate your merged data.
As a result, you will get a new worksheet with duplicate IDs and data from your other columns.
To get rid of the duplicate IDs and get your data combined, please use Merge Duplicates:
1. Select your new table and run Merge Duplicates, you can find its icon right near Combine Sheets in the same Merge group.
2. On step 2, choose only one key column with duplicate records: ID.
3. On step 3, check columns with data you want to combine and click the Finish button.
Thus you will get the sheets combined the way you need!
Natricia, hi again,
Actually, there is an even simpler solution for your task: the Merge Two Tables wizard!
1. On step 1 and 2 select your sheets.
2. On step 3 pick the ID column (it is “matching column”).
3. Skip step 4, i.e. do not pick any columns on this step and just click the Next button.
4. On step 5 select the column(s) you want to add.
5. On step 6 you may leave the default setting.
I hope you will find this solution helpful.
I need to Combine reports Sales by Customer, then by year. I have two columns on each report - by year.
What I would like to do is combine 3 reports into one - leaving the first column as the customer and not have duplicate customers - adding the details from 2016, 2017 and 2018 on one line, one customer name with their sales in the columns below by year. Is this possible?
Customer | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 as columns -

Your task can be easily solved with the help of two Ablebits tools, both are part of Ultimate Suite for Excel: Combine Sheets and Merge Duplicates.
Please take the following steps:

To get the sales data combined by the names of your customers, use the Merge Duplicates tool:
1. Select your new table and run Merge Duplicates, you can find its icon right near Combine Sheets in the same Merge group.
