Problem description & analysis:
Below is a grouped table having detailed data under each group:
We need to concatenate the top 3 locations in each group into a string with the comma and display them along with the group header.
Solution:
Use SPL XLL to enter the formula below:
=spl("=?.group@i(~(1)).([~(1)(1),~.top(-3;~(3)).(~(2)).concat@c()])",A2:C13)
As shown in the picture below:
Explanation:
group@i groups rows by the specified condition; ~(1) represents the 1st member of the current row. the top() function gets the top N members. concat@c concatenates members of a sequence with the comma.
