    IF Row @ Column A=Column B, then return Column C

    ✭
    in Formulas and Functions

    I have 2 sheets.

    Sheet A to track the orders: Order IDs (column 1) and the Services (column 2) of those Order IDs.

    Sheet B to track the hours works on the orders: Order IDs (column X) and the Services (column Z) of those Order IDs.

    I am trying to use a formula that says:

    If Sheet A Order ID@row equals Order ID@column A on Sheet B , then return the matching Service from Sheet B column 2.

    I have tried:

    =IF(MATCH ({Orders Range 1}, [Order ID #]@row), {Orders Range 2}, 0)

    =INDEX({Orders Range 1}, MATCH([Order ID #]@row, {Orders Range 2}, 0))

    I appreciate the help!

      Try

      =INDEX({SheetBServices}, MATCH([SheetA Order ID]@row, {SheetB Order ID}, 0))

      Basically, the index function you already tried looks correct EXCEPT you want to index through your services column not your orders column and you want to match your orders column in sheet b, not your services - you just got those two columns reversed.

      Change your 0 to 1 or eliminate it completely

      =INDEX({Orders Range 1}, MATCH([Order ID #]@row, {Orders Range 2}, 1)) or

      =INDEX({Orders Range 1}, MATCH([Order ID #]@row, {Orders Range 2}))
