IFERROR AND RESULT IS "NOT POSTED" IF WITH OTHER RESULT

[JOHATUP]

I have this formula below, where IFERROR, if the vlookup sheet does not have the document number on it it will show "Not posted "(But it does not mean everything is not posted, but it could mean its deleted), the formula works but I need to add it with formula that if cell B2 is "deleted" (this is the text content of the cell) then the result should be "deleted" instead of "Not Posted". I cannot seem to work this out cause it will show I have multiple arguments.
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(O2,POSTED!C:I,7,0),"Not Posted")

Possibly because you aren't looking in column B. You are looking in the 7th column of the range which is I.

the 7th is the vlookup file from another sheet, so I was referencing the B2 cell that if its deleted then it will replace the "not posted" label to "deleted".

VLOOKUP(O2,POSTED!C:I,7,0)
=VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,column_index_num,[range_lookup])

• lookup_value - The value to look for in the first column of a table. =O2
• table_array - The table from which to retrieve a value. =POSTED!C:I
• column_index_num - The column in the table from which to retrieve a value. =7
• range_lookup - [optional] TRUE = approximate match (default). FALSE = exact match. =0=exact match

Do you just mean:

=IF(B2="Deleted",B2,IFERROR(VLOOKUP(O2,Posted!C:I,7,0),"Not Posted"))

This works, thank you for the help.

Do you just mean:

=IF(B2="Deleted",B2,IFERROR(VLOOKUP(O2,Posted!C:I,7,0),"Not Posted"))

One last question, i dont know if this is possible i wanted to as well change the data that contains "BTC_LT_SP2" to the word "System" from the same Vlookup file. See below formula i had tried to come up with but its not working.
=IF(B2="Deleted",B2,
IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCHI(VLOOKUP("BTC_LT_SP2",(O2,Posted!C:I,7,0)),"System",
IFERROR(VLOOKUP(O2,Posted!C:I,7,0),"Not Posted")))

Unfortunately since you don't have MS 365 or O2021, you will need to do the VLookup twice. In the later versions you could use the LET function so that you only need to do it once.

=IF(B2="Deleted",B2,
         IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("BTC_LT_SP2",VLOOKUP(O2,Posted!C:I,7,0))),
               "System",
                IFERROR(VLOOKUP(O2,Posted!C:I,7,0),"Not Posted")))

Its okay,, this works on my end. Big help, thanks again for your skills and knowledge.
