I have two sets of data that I wish to combine. The first is forecast project spend and the second is actual project spend. Column headings are Employee, Project code, and January to December in both.
I want to produce a hybrid of the two whereby I add the actual value next to the forecast value in each row. I.e:
Employee > Project code > January (Forecast) > January (Actual) >...December (Actual)
The Employee names and Project codes are not unique so I need to look up based on the Employee name AND project code in the forecast data to find the correct actual values based on a match of the Employee name AND project name.
Is there a formula that would allow me to do this? It feels like a vlookup but with 2 critera to look up against and to criteria in the range to match against. Any ideas?
