Hello, y'all. I need some help here. I'm a charge nurse and I recently took over the responsibility of scheduling. I need a more efficient way to make the schedule for my team of nurses (our office won't purchase a scheduling software) then what is currently being done, so I am making a self-scheduling document in excel to share with my staff. I've got a calendar type table created that has the employee's names in the first column and for each day there are drop down menus that they can select a shift. Now I would like to create a table that autopopulates the nurses names that picked up each shift. Suggestions, please?

When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Welcome to the Board!

Try putting this formula in cell F2 on your sheet:
Excel Formula:
=INDEX(Table1[Employee],MATCH([@Shifts],Table1[Monday],0))
and this formula in cell G2:
Excel Formula:
=INDEX(Table1[Employee],MATCH([@Shifts],Table1[Tuesday],0))

Results look like what you show you want:
