How to Create a Master Report from Multiple Excel Sheets

If you're an Excel user with multiple sheets needing consolidated data, you're not alone in the challenge of creating a master report. This can be especially daunting if you have dozens of rows spread across several sheets. In this guide, we’ll walk you through an effective solution using VBA to copy rows from multiple sheets into a single master sheet in a structured and sequential manner.

The Problem

You have 10 sheets in your Excel workbook, each containing rows of data. Your goal is to compile all the data—excluding the header rows—into the first sheet. This would create a comprehensive master report without having to copy and paste manually.

You may have already attempted a script but encountered issues related to variable declaration and logic flow that ultimately hindered the desired output.

The Solution

Below, we provide a working VBA script that addresses this issue and achieves the desired result. This script systematically goes through each sheet, copying data into the first sheet as specified.

Step-by-Step Breakdown of the VBA Code

Here’s the improved version of the script to accomplish the task:

Explanation of Key Components

Define Variables:

ws1: This variable references the master sheet where you will be compiling all data.

ws: This will iterate through each of the other sheets in the workbook.

lastRow, lastER, and lastCol: These help identify where to copy and where to paste the data.

Set the Master Sheet:

The first worksheet (Worksheets(1)) is designated as your master sheet.

Loop Through Worksheets:

Using a For Each loop, the code checks all sheets. It skips the master sheet to avoid copying data back to itself.

Find Last Rows and Columns:

The End(xlUp).Row and End(xlToLeft).Column methods are utilized to determine where the data finishes on each sheet, ensuring you're capturing all relevant data.

Copy and Paste Data:

Data is copied from each sheet starting from cell "B1" to the end of the data and pasted sequentially into the master sheet.

Conclusion

By leveraging the provided VBA script, you can automate the tedious process of consolidating data from multiple sheets into a comprehensive master report. This solution not only saves time but also minimizes the risk for human errors associated with manual data entry.
