Summary Field - Formula Reference Question

Newman33

I want the summary field in a individual project page to reference information from the master sheet the individual project page comes from.

Currently, the layout is such: Master sheet with Job Codes in Column 2. in that column, each job code is hyperlinked to an individual task sheet. Because the task sheet does not recognize it's own sheet name as a value, I've elected to try and pull in the Job Code from the Master sheet to a summary field for further use.

in a summary field, I've written the following: =VLOOKUP([NewCo ID]@row, {DBC Master - Test Range}, 2, false)

[NewCo ID] is the name of the job code column

{DBC Master - Test Range} is the name of the range I've selected, that being the first two columns from the master sheet, working from the left.

I've selected the second column, which is the NewCo ID column mentioned above

and I've asked for an exact match, with "False"

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @Newman33

I hope you're well and safe!

I answered in the other thread also.

I'd be happy to take a quick look.

Can you maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s)? (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 week!

I think it's probably the @row causing the issue. The summary field is not linked to a row so you not to reference to row number directly. See if that works
