Formulas in Contact Columns
I have 3 columns on a sheet that holds new submissions via form. Based on the job# submitted, i pull in the assigned Dispatcher, Rep and Tech. I use these for alerts. However, only the Dispatcher column is showing correctly. The other two just pull in the name. See attached "Overview".
I am using Index Match formulas in a ll 3 column and they are setup as contact columns.
Any help as to why only 1 of the columns works correctly, but the other two do not is greatly appreciated.
Answers
-
Are all columns set as contact type columns?
-
Yes sir on both sheets all columns are set as contact columns.
-
Are any of them set to select multiple contacts?
-
No. They are set as 1 selection only. None of the columns have the selections to choose from either.
-
Double check that the source data is actually a contact and not just text.
-
I just remembered that I change the source sheet to multiple contacts on Monday. If i change it back to single everything works.
I'll come up with a work around.
Thanks Paul!
