Hi I am trying to get a lookup that if i select the req parameters from the data validation dropdown then it should dynamically update the lookup outcome. I have used a vlookup match but this does not work. Hope someone can help?
Which cell should have a formula ?formula should be in cell d31
What should this formula do ? Basically I need a dynamic lookup so if I change the parameters in the data validation then the formula will update this automatically eg if i choose mtd rather than wtd the formula should go in the mtd colum. Hope this makes sense the parameters are in the block named data validation parameters. Thanks in advance.
I have no idea what this means , since WTD covers 3 columns , MTD covers 3 columns and YTD covers 3 columns.
It would all be crystal clear if instead of just xxxxxx all over the place , you could have some numbers , and then indicate what should be the value that should be output by the formula in D31.
re attached. so the Exam Q is,
if I pick the parameters (from Data validation parameters) say e.g UK FSO TAS, FY18 Jul Wk 2 , WTD & Actual then cell D31 = 802. If i change the Parameters to UK FSO TAS, FY18 Jul Wk 2 , MTD & Plan D31 = 611.
So far, I didn't understand the logic behind putting Data validation -Parameters (FY18 Jul Wk2),as it is not reflecting in your data range..
although I have tried from my end putting formula without including your parameter (FY18 Jul Wk2) and it is giving the same result which is required to you..
