Good afternoon,

I have this code that copies to sheet "INVOICE_ENTRY" any row in the range A5:P if it finds a value in column N.

"INVOICE_ENTRY" sheet is identical to the srcSheet, except it has a couple more columns after P.

What I want to happen is after running the script, if it finds a duplicate record in the dstSheet, and using columns G and H as the identifier, it overwrites the data in dstSheet, rather than adding a new row.

Is this possible?

Code:
Code:
function payINVOICE() {
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
  var ds = SpreadsheetApp.openById("sheetname");
  var srcSheet = ss.getSheetByName("PAY_INVOICE");
  var dstSheet = ds.getSheetByName("INVOICE_ENTRY");

  var data_range = srcSheet.getRange('A5:P');
  var data_data = data_range.getValues();
  var data_clean  = data_data.filter(function (r) {return r[14]});

  var clear_range = srcSheet.getRange('N5:P');



  var lr = dstSheet.getLastRow();

  dstSheet.getRange(lr+1, 2,data_clean.length,16).setValues(data_clean);
  clear_range.clear();

}


Best regards,
manc
