How do I create a function formula for my query?
I want to create a query that sources another datasheet that contains multiple certification types, certification numbers, roles, and ID data where you can type in the employee's name and all of the information will populate on the Query sheet. What function formula would work best with this?

Or possibly create a query that will populate all of the relevant information pertaining to an Employee based on one search. For example, if I type in the ID number then it will populate the data pertaining to their trainer, cert type, roles etc and if I typed their Role in individually it'll do the same thing.

Hi @mwhite24
I hope you're well and safe!
You could connect the sheets using cross-sheet formulas combined with either a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH structure. Then, you can search for/select an employee and collect the information back on the sheet.
Make sense?
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
