Hi guys,

I have a huge table with many columns and rows. Then in another sheet I have certain values that I need to use to calculate dates, so I need to

Example of values that I need to use for my calculation:
Customer: SZ
Final date: 10/07/2020 0:00
Transportation lead time: 96:00:00 (Hours) = 4 days
Initial date: ?

With this data I need to read the header (Row 1) and find the customer, then read the Final date from Column A and calculate 4 days backwards, however, in my table I have zeros and ones, this means 0 are invalid dates and 1 valid dates, so, the calculation should only be done against the valid days (ones only) and the Final date should not be count as part of the 4 days. For this example, when I take the Customer SZ and final date 10/07/2020 0:00 and count 4 days backwards the date return should be 09/30/2020 0:00.

Customer: SZ is located in E1
Final date: 10/07/2020 0:00 is located in A8
10/07/2020 - 4 days = 10/03/2020 however 10/04 and 10/03 are invalid dates and 10/07 should not count, so the calculation should bring 09/30/2020 0:00 as the Initial date.

Appreciate any assistance with this calculation.
