Return Value Based on Two Conditions

Excel Help 2-12.png

I'm trying to get Excel to return a value to one cell based on it two conditions are met. I've highlighted everything to match in the picture attached, but I will try to explain in as much detail as I can what I'm looking for. I would like to be able to put a formula in to C4 that I can copy down. I would like to have Excel check the information contained within J4 through M13 for two conditions. If the Facility Code in Column A and Column J Match and the Account Code in Cell C1 and Column K match, then it should return the account balance in Column M.

I’ve tried VLoopUp as well as Index and Match formulas without much luck (although admittedly, I may have entered some information incorrectly or used them improperly as I’m still a bit green when it comes to those formulas :P). Is this something even possible in Excel? I have to sort through about 1500 lines of data total out each different account, so I was hoping there was a formula to make it easier.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Jill,

Find the attached with the needed formula. This is one of those Ctrl+Shift+Enter formulas where you can't just press enter when you are done with the formula. You need to hold down the Ctrl+Shift keys and then press Enter. They call these types of formulas CSE or Array formulas.

Here is my example workbook showing how they work.
