I posted this earlier but I can't find it under my posts. Therefore, please forgive me if this is a duplicate request.

I am trying to fill in the Address field from a transaction file. A unique ID can have multiple transactions. Each transaction comes with an Address. I need to pull the address from the latest transaction based on the date. In case the address is missing from the last transaction, can I pull the data from the transaction before? Obviously, if the ID in Column A does not find any transaction record, I need the cell to stay blank.

Looking to complete Column B using data in Columns D through F. The results I need are highlighted in tan color.

PS: I downloaded the Xl2BB add-in but MS Excel blocked the macro saying that the source could not be verified. Did I miss a step?

Thanks for your help in advance.
 

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.
How about:

In cell B3:
Excel Formula:
=LET(d,D3:D17,e,E3:E17,f,F3:F17,BYROW(A3:A6,LAMBDA(br,FILTER(f,(d=br)*(e=MAX((d=br)*(f<>"")*(e))),""))))

The above formula works very well for small range. However, I am getting into a range limitation issue.

Here is the range for my data set:
Columns D, E, & F the data goes down to row 62,129
Column A goes down to row 17,654

The formula works until certain rows. After that I get an error message:
=LET(d,D3:D62000,e,E3:E62000,f,F3:F62000,BYROW(A3:A133,LAMBDA(br,FILTER(f,(d=br)*(e=MAX((d=br)*(f<>"")*(e))),""))))
This formula (range) gives me no error and provides the results I am looking for

Anything after 62,000 I get the #n/a error
=LET(d,D3:D62050,e,E3:E62050,f,F3:F62050,BYROW(A3:A135,LAMBDA(br,FILTER(f,(d=br)*(e=MAX((d=br)*(f<>"")*(e))),""))))
This formula (range) gives me #N/A error

However, for column "A" range anything over 133 gives me a #CALC! error.
=LET(d,D3:D62000,e,E3:E62000,f,F3:F62000,BYROW(A3:A134,LAMBDA(br,FILTER(f,(d=br)*(e=MAX((d=br)*(f<>"")*(e))),""))))
This formula (range) gives me #CALC! error

Any idea how should I deal with his issue?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

How about
Excel Formula:
=BYROW(A2:A236,LAMBDA(br,TAKE(SORT(FILTER(E2:F63000,(D2:D63000=br)*(F2:F63000<>""),""),1,-1),1,-1)))

Hello @Fluff ,

Thanks for revising the formula. However, I am getting an "#N/A" Error now:

BTW, the Column A range should go down to 17,654. I tried changing the range for Column A, but I get the either zero or "#N/A" error.

Any thoughts?

Check that you don't have any #N/A errors in columns D, E & F

@Fluff

Never mind... I found it... there was one #N/A record.
