I have an extra helper column based on the first formula listed below, however, I would like to incorporate said index match formula within the larger sumproduct formula, and remove the helper column. The use of this index match formula is necessary since the sumproduct formula relies on two dates matching to produce a value. I would like to replace the bold part of the sumproduct formula below with this index match array formula:

Rich (BB code):
 =INDEX(Table3[Training Start Date],MATCH(1,(AC3=Table3[Full Name (Trainee) (Contact)])*(AG3=Table3[Created On]),0))

Rich (BB code):
 SUMPRODUCT((Table4[Trainee (Result) (Result)]=$B3)*(INT(Table4[Created On (Training Plan) (Training Plan)])=INT($L3))*(INT(Table4[Training Plan Start Date (Training Plan) (Training Plan)])=INT($E3)),(Table4[Credits (Unit Standard) (Unit Standard)]))<10

Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Why do you feel the need to do away with the helper column? They can often make things simpler and more efficient

Yes, I agree. However, I have many columns in this worksheet and would like to combine these two formulas.

I see no problem with having "many columns", you can hide the 1's you don't want to see
