reference 2 different cell and the result will com from the third cell

Jeorge · Jun 2, 2018

Need your help guys,
I have this example regarding my concern of giving me the figure from cell C (Quantity) from reference of cell A (Product) and cell B (Company). I am trying to figure out how to get the value of Banana Del Monte as reference value and will give me the 15,000 to my separate worksheet. Tried this:
=IF(AND(A2=”Banana”, B2=”Del Monte”), C2,0)
That gives me the result of 15,000 from where I place the formula but since every day I need to extract the order this placed the Banana and Del Monte in a different cell like the one showing in Figure B.
Tried using =IF(AND(A:A=”Banana”, B:B=”Del Monte”), C:C,0) but I think that is totally not right (Haha)

Assuming that we have this imaginary excel lines...

Figure A
A B C

1 Apple	Fuji	10000
2 Banana	Del Monte	15000
3 Orange	Sunkist	12000
4 Pineapple	Dole	11000
5Strawberry	Baguio	7000
6 Kiwi	Aussie	12000

Figure B
A B C

1Strawberry	Baguio	7,000
2Pineapple	Dole	11,000
3Orange	Sunkist	12,000
4 Kiwi	Aussie	12,000
5 Banana	Del Monte	15,000
6 Apple	Fuji	10,000

Hi Peter,
it did capture what I expected, thank you very much. Big help Sir.
added question what if accidentally it appeared (due to some error) two Banana on column A and Del Monte on column B is it possible to give me an error notice that there was two banana on column A and two Del Monte on column B? I tried filling in this situation and it captured the first Banana and Del Monte and ignored the succeding same value. Thanks again.

Something like this?

=IF(COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$10,F2,$B$2:$B$10,F3)=1,INDEX($C$2:$C$10,MATCH(F2&"|"&F3,INDEX($A$2:$A$10&"|"&$B$2:$B$10,0),0)),"Error")

or do you mean this?

=CHOOSE(MIN(COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$10,F2,$B$2:$B$10,F3),2)+1,"Not found",INDEX($C$2:$C$10,MATCH(F2&"|"&F3,INDEX($A$2:$A$10&"|"&$B$2:$B$10,0),0)),"Error")
