Hello

i think i had a good contra formula based on my columns I to L

they basically look at the value and then tell me if there is a same value elsewhere

so if you look at column L all the 2's mean there is a contra entry, which seems fine but it isnt

because if you look at row 2 and row 9

they are two different customers John and Gabby

1. can someone maybe tell me a better contra entry formula?
2. maybe i can add an IF statement somewhere to let me know if its the same customer?

i only want to see a 2 if the customer is the same aswell if it isnt it should say 1

i had to uplaod an image

but the formulas are:


i have also posted this here:
