I´m using a formula to achieve the desired result & want to convert it to dynamic array. I tried using MAP function with LAMBDA, but it is failing. Can the experts guide please?

Rules -
Compare source table with another table. If a dept is marked 'x' in the source table & if it exists in the 2nd table, mark 'x' in the output. If not, mark, mark 'no'. If source table is not marked 'x', enter 'NA' in the output.

I´m getting the desired output when I copy & paste the formula. But, when I tried to convert it to dynamic array, it is throwing error.

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
No need for lambda's ;p

Thanks, @JEC & @DanteAmor. Both solutions work for me.

Adding a bit more complexity with additional columns. It´s working when I copy & paste the formula, but not getting the correct result when dynamic array is used. I´m sure I would have made a minor mistake. Can the experts in this forum help please?

with additional columns

Just in L43:

=LET(a,B43:G52,b,J43:J47,STACKH(a,IF(CHOOSECOLS(a,3,4,5,6)="x",IF(IFERROR(XMATCH(CHOOSECOLS(a,2),b,0),0)>0,"yes","no"),"NA")))

The formula includes the data from the first table and the results.
You only need to put the headers in row L42 to U42

Thanks, @DanteAmor. This gives me 4 columns in the output corresponding to 4 columns in the source table. I basically need a combined column each for sales & hr.

In L43:

Excel Formula:
=LET(a,B43:G52,b,J43:J47,c,STACKH(CHOOSECOLS(a,3)&CHOOSECOLS(a,4),CHOOSECOLS(a,5)&CHOOSECOLS(a,6)),STACKH(CHOOSECOLS(a,1,2),IF(c<>"",IF(IFERROR(XMATCH(CHOOSECOLS(a,2),b,0),0)>0,"yes","no"),"NA")))
