Copy updated cell values of one sheet to another

JasG

Hi,

I have two sheets with exact same columns.

When any cell(s) value of row in sheet 1 is updated, then I want to update same row with unique identifier ID if existing in sheet 2 to be updated with new cell values as well.

Please help how it can be accomplished.

Example:

Let say Price Per unit of Row 3 is changed in first sheet, then same cell in sheet 2 should be updated.

Problems I am facing:

When row is updated

Then Identify cells that were changed in source sheet

And update changed cell values in destination sheet

Hi @JasG

I hope you're well and safe!

You could use cross-sheet formulas combined with either a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH structure to connect the sheets, and when you update the source sheet, it will reflect on the destination sheet.

Another option would be to use so-called helper sheets. In short, copy the row to a helper sheet and then use my method described previously to get the values you need to another helper sheet and then copy/move the row from that sheet to the main destination sheet.

To connect them row by row, you'd use an Autonumber Column in the Source sheet and add a so-called helper column to manually add the row id on as many rows as you think you need in the Destination sheet.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
