How can I get data to auto populate from a sheet to another when I select a category?

Élizabeth Moreau

Hello, we have about 280 different type of jobs and I would like my sheet to pull the according salary from another sheet. I would like my cell in sheet A to be auto populated with the salary when I select a job category. The salary infos are in sheet B. The category names are the same in both documents. How would I go about doing that? Thank you!

You are going to want something like this...

=INDEX({Sheet B Salary Column}, MATCH([Job Category]@row, {Sheet B Job Category Column}, 0))
