Hi there,

I have a workbook containing 2 sheets with various employee data - one sheet named 'Asset Tracking' contains the Employee Email Address (in column D) and the other sheet named 'A34 Enrolled Users' contains Employee Email Address (in column D).

I need a formula to look up the Employee Email Address from 'A34 Enrolled Users'’ sheet and match it to the Employee Email Address from 'Asset Tracking’ sheet and if it finds it to then put ‘Y’ into the ‘New Device Enrolled’ (Column I) within the 'Asset Tracking’ sheet. Please note the 'A34 Enrolled Users' is updated on a weekly basis so hoping this doesn't impact the formula.
I hope that makes sense... but Ive added a snap shot of data I'm working with.
Grateful for any assistance - thank you in advance

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
use a countif()

so in your column I

=countif( 'A34 Enrolled Users'!D:D,D4)
then use an IF to get YES & NO
=IF( countif( 'A34 Enrolled Users'!D:D,D4)>0, "yes","no")
copy down

I have D:D , that should stay when you update the sheet and use ALL rows - I dont like using column references , as refers to >1million rows , but in this case maybe OK

Hey thank you for the above, appreciated as always :)

=IF( countif( 'A34 Enrolled Users'!D:D,D4)>0, "yes","no") - this formula seems to be returning 'false'?

Please note this is just a snap shot of data I'm working with - the real data I am working on currently contains 400 rows, sorry I'm not sure if this makes a difference.

no the rows should not
should not return false
check the commas
as FALSE i have set as NO

=IF(COUNTIF( 'A34 Enrolled Users'!D:D,D4)>0, "yes","no")

Ignore me it's working on my test sheet but unfortunately returning incorrect data when using on my actual data sheet...Please note this sheet is saved on sharepoint and not locally on my PC.

Hi Joe, working with slightly diff data this time around. The formula suggested on this thread initially worked but came across same issue that it was returning incorrect data on the actual worksheet I was working with.

Totally understand, as per my reply to Joe it was different data working with 2 sheets....here I've combined all data in one workbook hoping it'll be more accurate.

Then you should continue in the original post instead of starting a new one.
Since it appears to be the same question (but with slightly different data - though you did not post any data in your original thread), please continue on in that other thread (please do not start a new thread on the same topic). Per forum rules, threads of a duplicate nature will usually be locked or deleted (rule 12 here: Message Board Rules).
