To identify the most recent 2 bids from Excel Source

Description:

The attached excel gives details about bids, bids can be of 2 types:

  • Direct
  • Indirect

The above is captured in field Bid Medium

Bid Medium decides which value to be used for the following computation

  • Direct (Bid Qty*Bid Direct Price)
  • Indirect (Bid Qty*Bid Indirect price)

Bids for the same Bid Item No. would be generated over a period, if the current bid have been set a higher price than the previous bid the Price Increase or Deviation Flag is set as 1.

Additionally, Bids can have step pricing i.e. Same Bid can have 2 different prices based on Qty (Row 6&7 in Excel).

Another computation is Deviation Amount-

(Bid Indirect Price(Current) - Bid Indirect Price(Previous))*Qty(Current)

For Step Pricing-

(Avg. Bid Indirect Price(Current) - Avg. Bid Indirect Price(Previous))*Qty(Current)


Whereas if the Bid Medium is Direct then for aforesaid computations we should use Bid Direct Price.


Problems faced:

  • To Identify the Previous Bid
  • To identify Step Pricing
  • To switch between Direct/Indirect Price


Kindly help me out with this, Thanks in advance.
