    Smile I need a consolidation function

    I have about 60000 rows of data on a worksheet.

    The sheet labeled consolidation is how i need it to be.

    If the first 2 of each SKU have the same LOC then it can be deleted..

    I have done a conditional format to rid the report of unique SKU's.

    I did the Consolidation sheet by hand

    I only need the the items that went into a different location then the most current one before it. so as long at the two most current entries for a specific part match, i can delete them, if not i need them on this report to consolidate space. some items have up to 20 different dates it was stored.

    Thank you for any help!

    re: consolidate irrelevant data

    I think it's not clear enough. Upload an example spreadsheet (Go Advanced>Manage Attachments) showing how it looks now and then how you would expect it to look. Thanks

    and it does sound like a difficult problem too

    re: consolidate irrelevant data

    So in your example, only row 3 would be deleted?

Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.
    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    EDITED THIS TIME

    Talking Re: I need a consolidation function

    this may not be the easiest way.. but this is how i did it.....

    =IF(E2 <>E1,"no","yes")
    =IF(B2="no","match?")
    =IF(C2="match?",IF(I2=I3,"YES","no"))

    I highlighted the ones that read red and then sorted by color.. Then deleted the highlighted selections.
