    IFERROR Function

    Hi All,

    Hoping to have some assistance with my function in B80 on the Monthly Summary Tab.

    If there is no vendor in Column L (in Tab Raw Data), I want the formula to revert to showing the Memo/Description in Column J. I tried using the IFERROR Function and essentially copied the same function in value_if_error but changed the range from L:L to J:J to capture this, but unfortunately it will copy some memo descriptions for row items that do have a vendor.

    I would really appreciate some insight into this. Thanks in advance for your help!

    Erm.... Which formula?
    Might need to provide a little more information than that, and perhaps some expected results might be helpful.

    Hi Buoy,

    Apologies if I wasn't clear. But the formula starts in B80 in the monthly summary page.

    Essentially if there is no vendor listed, id like for it to return the memo description rather than "0"

    Re: IFERROR Function

    There is probably a better way than this, but this works...
    =IFERROR(IF(INDEX('Raw Data'!L:L,SMALL(IF(('Raw Data'!$C$1:C10000=$A$1),IF(COUNTIF($B$79:B80,'Raw Data'!$L$1:L10000)=0,ROW($A$1:A10000),"")),1))=0,INDEX('Raw Data'!J:J,SMALL(IF(('Raw Data'!$C$1:C10000=$A$1),IF(COUNTIF($B$79:B80,'Raw Data'!$L$1:L10000)=0,ROW($A$1:A10000),"")),1)),INDEX('Raw Data'!L:L,SMALL(IF(('Raw Data'!$C$1:C10000=$A$1),IF(COUNTIF($B$79:B80,'Raw Data'!$L$1:L10000)=0,ROW($A$1:A10000),"")),1))),"")

    With that many ARRAY formulas,you might want to consider using a helper column instead
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Re: IFERROR Function

    If the expected result is a TEXT string, you can just wrap the entire original formula in the T function

    =T(yourformula)
