Automatically Copy Column Entries into Another Sheet

I have two separate audit sheets, and wish to combine certain columns into one summary sheet.

To be more specific, I only want the PO number and overall pass fail from each large data sheet to be automatically copied into a 3rd sheet so I can compare results of the PO number's 2 test results.

In theory, the resulting column would be auto populating as more entries are made and look like.

    Hi @Shelby Wilder

    I hope you're well and safe!

    You could use cross-sheet formulas combined with either a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH structure to connect the sheets, and when you update the source sheet, it will reflect on the destination sheet.

    Another option would be to use so-called helper sheets. In short, copy the row to a helper sheet and then use my method described previously to get the values you need to another helper sheet and then copy/move the row from that sheet to the main destination sheet.

    Would that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe and have a fantastic week!

    Best,
