Formula question. INDEX? MATCH?

J Johnson

I am trying to get a value returned from a specific column if the other columns in that row meet certain criteria. For example, return me the value in column x if column y is "this facility" and column z is today's date.

You will need to use IF / INDEX / MATCH for your calculation.

=IF([Column Z]@row=TODAY(), INDEX([Column X]:[Column X], MATCH("this facility", [Column Y]:[Column Y], 0)), "--")

I keep getting "unparseable" :(

Hi @J Johnson

Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic day!

I am wanting to create dashboard that pulls values from a worksheet for the current day.

Process: currently, several forms are utilized daily and various data points are loaded into the worksheet. The data is sensitive but certain people need to view specific data points for the current day. I want to create a little dashboard that will auto populate with the values they need to see so that I do not need to give them manually or share the sheet of sensitive information.
