Can this rule be applied in a sigle cell function?

[FreeRangeJ]

I have a column of GROUP (1 through 5), another column of [C] TERRITORY (1 or 2) and a column of [E] GROUP SPACE AVAILABLE and depending on the 10 possible variables of those 2 columns I have 3 potential outcomes, [E]*0 , [E]*1 or [E]*2 to go incolumn F if this rule is at all possible in a single cell expression, i.e. without a lookup table using Index/Match, I'm picturing something like a nested IF AND OR statement but can't quite picture the flow / order

I read it and then reread it and i dont see a rule here. What is it?

 

[FreeRangeJ]

Sorry, you're right, I've been bending my head round this all night for a job I technically finished yesterday and I guess i'm not making mush sense!

The rule is that if it is Territory 1 , then groups 1 & 2 get 2x the group allocation of space, groups 4 & 5 get a single allocation of the group space but group 3 gets none
if it is territory 2 then group 1 gets a double allocation of the group space and the other groups 2 through 5 get a single allocation

Or another way of looking at it, Group 1 gets a double allocation whether territory 1 or 2 and all other groups get a single allocation of the space, except in territoty 1 group 3 doesn't get any allocation and that gets added onto group 2's allocation

i really don't know if that makes it any clearer!

 

[steve the fish]

Are those worded numbers really words? You would probably find the formulas easier if they were really numbers. Anyhow this works with what you have provided:

=E2*IF(C2="One",VLOOKUP(B2,{"one",2;"two",2;"three",0;"four",1;"five",1},2,0),IF(C2="Two",VLOOKUP(B2,{"one",2;"two",1;"three",1;"four",1;"five",1},2,0),0))

 

[FreeRangeJ]

No the worded number are just anonymised examples of the 5 variants of the Group Labels and the 2 variants of the Territory label I have, just trying to simplify my request as I've been on this since yesterday and I think i'm struggling to communicate my requirements to be honest

Just going to test your solution now, it's going into a s/sheet with aprox 600k rows that this would be popultaing against

I'll keep you posted!
