How to keep index/match value when source sheet is deleted?
Hi guys!
Is there a way to keep the duplicated value in the new sheet even after the original source sheet is deleted?
I use index/match to match the job order # on sheet A and sheet B, and sheet B has the work hours synced. However, since sheet A is generated every few hours and will be removed, sheet B will no longer have the data. Is there a way to keep the data in sheet B after sheet A is deleted?
Thank you for your help!

Hi @Christina Lam
Hope you are fine, you can use the copy row workflow to copy the completed rows to an archive sheet and keep all your records. and use the archive sheet for your index/match formula.
Please add a copy of your sheet or a screenshot (after removing or replacing any sensitive information). This will make it easier for me to provide the appropriate answer to your question.
