Hello again!
I have come across another problem with excel i'm hoping for a solution from all the excel experts here
So i have a report to prepare and the data is huge. Here's an overview of what the report data contains:
1.10000 assets
2. Each asset has a Classification: eg AssetNumber 10001 has classification AAA,10002 has classification BBB,10003 has class AAA etc.
3. Each Classification has different set of Attributes: Eg Classification AAA has 10 Attributes, Classification BBB has 8 attributes and so on
My report has:
1. Each asset on one row, with each classification attribute as a header:
eg
AssetNumber|Classification|Attribute1|Attribute2|Attribute3 and so on TILL ATTRIBUTE 10
10001 AAA MECH Steel 250KV
AssetNumber|Classification|Attribute1|Attribute2|Attribute3 and so on TILL ATTRIBUTE 8
10002 BBB CIVIL PLASTIC 250Kv
My data for above report comes from another sheet where i have a unique id created to index and match above data.
My problem is, i need a way to fix the formula to look up the Classification and Attributes from the original data sheet,match it to the assetnumber in the report sheet and output the value of the attribute.
Right now i have to go to each cell and paste the formula for each classification!! ie: go to Attribute1 of assetnumber 10001 and paste formulas to look up (Assetnumer&Classification&Attribute1) (50 assets down copy and paste formula)
go to Attribute1 of assetnumber 10002 and paste formula (Assetnumer&Classification&Attribute1) (20 assets down copy and paste formula)
I have over 10000 assets to do this to
