    Create a table of Branches and Serial Numbers, and instead of entering values in column F use a formula like

    =VLOOKUP(A2,NewTable,2,False)

    where NewTable is either a named range, the address, or the two columns of the new table that you create above.

    If the notice can be beside the serial number, then place this in Cell G2 and copy down.
