I have a sheet to be filled out by staff which shows how many racks and shelves they have in a storeroom, I need a second sheet that copies this data the number of time equal to the amount of shelving they have in order to create bin locations on the shelf.

Each shelf of each cabinet bay needs to have 10 locations to accommodate the stock that will be put on it which at the moment has to be done manually as every site/storeroom is different.

example - section AA has 1 shelf - the result I need is - section AA listed 10 times, this means if they put a 2 for the number of shelves then it would copy it 20 times.

In the example I would want them to fill in just 1 line of the blue section (not including "Bin" in order to create all 10 lines shown

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.

Please see the screenshot attached on page 2, the sheet is working just as planned except if a location has more than 4 shelves it starts to repeat the for the first line in each new level.

example:

MS-ST01-AA-04-01
MS-ST01-AA-05-02
MS-ST01-AA-05-03
MS-ST01-AA-05-04
MS-ST01-AA-05-05
MS-ST01-AA-05-06
MS-ST01-AA-05-01
MS-ST01-AA-06-02
MS-ST01-AA-06-03
MS-ST01-AA-06-04
MS-ST01-AA-06-05
MS-ST01-AA-06-06
MS-ST01-AA-06-01
MS-ST01-AA-07-02
MS-ST01-AA-07-03
MS-ST01-AA-07-04
MS-ST01-AA-07-05
MS-ST01-AA-07-06

That is the output, not the data. Also you have still not updated your profile.

The data is per image, this can change depending on the location and rooms. This front page is fine and no 2 lines are ever the same, just need to figure out why the formula is duplicating and switching the rows around as soon as it goes over 4 "shelfs"
