I am looking for a formula to look up the same name then add up the total numbers next to it. It always brings back just one instance when I write my formula.
 

Excel Facts

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
so in the example on the page you posted it just shows pen however if I wanted to give the total of all the items separately how would that look?
