Hi!

I have a Table 1 with price list changes for a commodity:
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Date of change
[/TD]
[TD]Commodity ID
[/TD]
[TD]New Price
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 Jan 01[/TD]
[TD]132[/TD]
[TD]$10.5[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 Jan 01[/TD]
[TD]150[/TD]
[TD]$20[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 March 04[/TD]
[TD]132[/TD]
[TD]$12[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 July 10[/TD]
[TD]132[/TD]
[TD]$15[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 Aug 01[/TD]
[TD]150[/TD]
[TD]$25[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

And I have a Table 2 with orders (but w/o prices), and I need to get correct price from Table 1 on the basis of order date so it should look like (marked red):

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Order Date
[/TD]
[TD]Commodity ID
[/TD]
[TD]Quantity
[/TD]
[TD]Unit price[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 Jan 03[/TD]
[TD]132[/TD]
[TD]10[/TD]
[TD]$10.5
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 Jan 30[/TD]
[TD]132[/TD]
[TD]10[/TD]
[TD]$10.5
[/TD]

[TR]
[TD]2017 Mar 05[/TD]
[TD]150[/TD]
[TD]10[/TD]
[TD]$20
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 Aug 15[/TD]
[TD]132[/TD]
[TD]10[/TD]
[TD]$15
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2017 Aug 20[/TD]
[TD]150[/TD]
[TD]10[/TD]
[TD]$25
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


How can I do that using Excel Formulas?

Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
More explanation:
Order date (Table 2) should be compared to price change dates, and the closest from the past (Table 1) should be taken (or the same date if order date equals date of change).
