I have excel spreadsheet with large column of numbers (+/- account balances). I have a known reconciliation break value. I need to find combinations of values from 1st column that total the reconciliation break within a tolerance / margin of error.

Current process involves manual work and intuition of system users

Is there a way to calculate the values from column 2 that total 723,135,655.87

I can see code in previous examples for Python but I need to do this in Excel
