Hi,
This appeared to be a simple vlookup and match task but I kind of ran into a roadblock.
I'm working on a financial report that shows amounts of aid students will receive for the year and semester. In sheet 1, I have a list of students that are coded with a unique ID number and an item type number that represents the type of aid they're receiving for that year (example: 1001=SubLoan1,1002=UnSubLoan1,1003=Grant ect.), along with the dollar amount.
In sheet 2, I have the same population of students but it is filtered to only focus on the loan item type and loan amount they will receive in a specific semester (Fall). What I want to happen is display the loan amount for the fall semester in the sheet 1, which lists all item types of aid for the year, from the data in sheet 2, which only focuses on loans for the semester.
The issue I'm running into is finding a way to have excel to use both the unique id and item type id in sheet 1 to find the same values in sheet 2, and return the loan amount to sheet 1.
Another issue that I have is the columns in both sheets are uneven in length. This is due to more rows in sheet 1 listing all item types of aid, as opposed to the columns in sheet 2 which only focuses on the item types of loans. I tried vlookup but that can only find one value at a time, and index/match formulas i used return #NA and # VALUE! errors.
Can someone please help me out with this?
Thank you in advance!
