Hi, I currently have to manually put the subtotal in the proper category, how would i do the following so if for example it sees "FREEDOM MOBILE" in the description it would automatically assign it to "Cell Phone" column. Thanks.

Hi, thx for the reply, so thats what ive been trying but I just get a blank cell when i plug that in. I should clarify that in J4 I have the formula =B3+G3, not sure if that matters. Some of these columns will have a handful of keywords to look for like for example in the "Tools" category , itll look for 'Home Depot' "Lowes" etc. etc. Not sure if I should set up an index maybe?
