Creating New Worksheet/Workbooks based on Existing Data from Master Sheet

[AGMGCM]

I am in the process of automating some of my workflow and cannot figure out how to best approach this situation.


I have an inventory sheet that I would like to create new sheets off of based on categories. Each category would need its own file generated along with all items included.


The second image highlights how the data should sit within a pre-designed template, the information needing to line up with specific cells.

Please let me know what you think the best way to approach this would be.


Thank you.

Maybe

Sub splitDataToTemplate()

   Dim Cl As Range
   Dim Ws As Worksheet
   
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
   Set Ws = Sheets("Pcode")
   If Ws.AutoFilterMode Then Ws.AutoFilterMode = False
   With CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
      For Each Cl In Ws.Range("E2", Ws.Range("E" & Rows.count).End(xlUp))
         If Not .exists(Cl.Value) Then
            .Add Cl.Value, Nothing
            Sheets.Add.Name = Cl.Value
            Range("E1").Value = Cl.Value
            Ws.Range("A1:E1").AutoFilter 5, Cl.Value
            Intersect(Ws.AutoFilter.Range.Offset(1), Ws.Range("A:E")).SpecialCells(xlVisible).Copy Range("C3")
         End If
      Next Cl
      Ws.AutoFilterMode = False
   End With
End Sub

Hi Fluff,

Thank you for your prompt reply, this code works great and I have learned much from it. The only trouble I am having is that this creates a blank sheet for each food category, is there any way of duplicating an existing sheet within the workbook for each category and pasting into C3 of those duplicated sheets? I would like to separate each category into a pre-designed template.

Any thoughts would be appreciated, thank you again.

Hi Fluff,

It seems I may have posted too soon, I was trying something out and my only issue seems to have been the syntax.

I am using

   If Not .exists(Cl.Value) Then
            .Add Cl.Value, Nothing
            Worksheets("Template").Copy After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
            Worksheets(Worksheets.Count).Name = Cl.Value

to solve my issue, if you see any problems with this method please let me know otherwise thanks again so much for your help!
