Bring text to another sheet

jchambers

Good morning. I am trying to set up some things for my employees. I have a form for them to fill out that includes some goals of theirs and I want those goals to also go onto another sheet as well for me to track those goals for them. Is there a formula that can do this? Thanks for all help.

Hi @jchambers

I hope you're well and safe!

There are multiple ways to solve it.

• You could have a Workflow on each new submission that copies the row to the other sheet.

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 any of those options work/help?

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic weekend & Happy Holidays!

Best,

Thanks @Andrée Starå. Anyway, you could provide a little more detail on how to do this. I've tried both the VLOOKUP and INDEX and they come up as wrong argument, but I've never used either of these so I'm probably just doing something wrong.

Happy to help!

Can you share some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help.
