Hello,
Help please. I have myself all confused on how to accomplish the following.

Column H2/Sheet1 --- match data in last 4 characters in C2 & all of D2 against data in column B & C in Sheet2 and return the value in column D
Column I2/Sheet1 --- match data in I1 & D2 against data in column B & C in Sheet2 and return the value in Column D
Column J2/Sheet 1 --- match data in J1 & D2 against data in column B & C in Sheet2 and return value in column D

SO----when the formula is working right, the figures in Sheet1 with match those in Sheet2 (I color coded to help with explanation)

Thanks in advance for your help and expertise.

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Blue - =INDEX(Sheet2!D:D, MATCH(1, ($D2=Sheet2!B:B)*(RIGHT($C2, 4)=Sheet2!C:C), 0))
Pink - =INDEX(Sheet2!D:D, MATCH(1, ($D4=Sheet2!B:B)*(RIGHT($C4, 4)=Sheet2!C:C), 0))
Green - =INDEX(Sheet2!D:D, MATCH(1, ($D6=Sheet2!B:B)*(RIGHT($C6, 4)=Sheet2!C:C), 0))
Peach - =INDEX(Sheet2!D:D, MATCH(1, ($D2=Sheet2!B:B)*($I$1=Sheet2!C:C), 0))
Yellow - =INDEX(Sheet2!D:D, MATCH(1, ($D2=Sheet2!B:B)*($J$1=Sheet2!C:C), 0))

What version of Excel are you using?

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

appreciate your willingness to help. I am afraid that maybe my color coding created confusion.

I assume there would only need to be three different formulas:
1) Sheet1/Column H
2) Sheet1/Column I
3) Sheet1/Column J

When I copy the formulas down in each column, the data returned will vary based on the varying Fiscal years and Orgs.

Thanks for that. (y)
How about In H2 copied down
Excel Formula:
=FILTER(Sheet2!$D$2:$D$1000,(Sheet2!$B$2:$B$1000=D2)*(Sheet2!$C$2:$C$1000=RIGHT(C2,4)),"No match")
and in I2 copied down & across
Excel Formula:
=FILTER(Sheet2!$D$2:$D$1000,(Sheet2!$B$2:$B$1000=$D2)*(Sheet2!$C$2:$C$1000=I$1),"No match")

Getting closer.......the correct data is pulling into columns H-J for rows3, 5 & 7. But there is a No match for columns H-J for rows 2, 4 & 6).

In this example, There should be not instances where there is no match.

Thanks again.

Check that you don't have any trailing spaces in col C of sheet1 & that you have actual numbers in col D

That was it!....there are trailing spaces in some of the cells in Column E.

I tried to use the find& replace option as well as the TRIM function and neither are working to remove the trailing spaces. any other suggestions?

please & thank you.

The formula is not looking at col E, wo which column has the trailing spaces?
