I am working on a utility and almost completed it.. With the utility I am generating Excel/CSV file with dummy data for my application.
On the file which will be generated, I have Product code(ex: CIDR, HQTC) in column "A" , then in "B" I have dept Id, in "C" I have positions.
So if
CIDR found in column A then search for common dpdt id in column B suppose 100001, now if in Column C we have M,E,S(implying M,E,S belong to same dept)

So below table as reference If CIDR found in A, then

CIDR -->100001-->M, E, --> then update D with 4 for all rows where 100001 is found
Similarly if CIDR -->100002-->M, E--> the update 2 where 100002 is found
if CIDR-->100003-->M--> the update 1 where 100003 is found
or if CIDR-->100004-->M, S--> the update 3 where 100004 is found

Refer sample data:

CIDR100001M
4​
CIDR100001E
4​
CIDR100001S
4​
CIDR100002M
2​
CIDR100002E
2​
CIDR100003M
1​
CIDR100004M
3​
CIDR100004S
3​
HQTC100001M
1​


Any help or approach to handle this.
