    Table that will show if person has completed particlar training

    Hello All,
    I have a rpt that shows what trainings a person has completed. The report is on 2nd tab and the table is on the first tab. If the person has completed the named training, the cell will show as yes on the table on the first tab. I have attached an example spreadsheet.

    I'm not clear on what you're asking. Do you want to generate the report from the table or the table from the report?

    I recently started a new job so am a bit busy and may not reply quickly. Sorry - it's not personal - I will reply eventually.
    If your problem is solved, please go to 'Thread Tools' above your first post and 'Mark this Thread as Solved'.
    If you use commas as your decimal separator (1,23 instead of 1.23) then please replace commas with semi-colons in your formulae.
    You don't need to give me rep if I helped, but a thank-you is nice.

    Re: Table that will show if person has completed particlar training

    Hello Aardigspook,
    I want the table to show like the example A8:E11. The table will only have the trainings in Col A and the employee names in Row 1. For example: in B2 the formula would look at tect training and see if Bob completed it on the second tab (Learning History). If he has that training then the formula in B2 would read yes.

    Re: Table that will show if person has completed particlar training

    Put this formula in B2:
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.

    It's an array formula, so you need to enter it with Ctrl-Shift-Enter not just Enter. When you do this, you should see curly brackets {} appear round the formula in the formula bar (don't try to enter them yourself). If you don't see them, click into the formula bar and try again.
    Then drag the formula down/right as needed.

    The way the formula works is to check if the combination of the name (B1, C1, D1, etc) and training (A2, A3, A4, etc) matches any combination of column A and column B on the Learning History sheet. The combination is done with the concatenation operator '&'. If a match is found, 'Yes' is returned, if not, 'No'.

    I've set the ranges for the report sheet as row 2 to row 1000 - if you're going to have more than 1000 rows, then just change the 1000 to a number bigger than you're likely to need.

    Hope that makes sense and does what you need.

    Re: Table that will show if person has completed particlar training

    I think I have this backwards, but since 'Emp Learning History' is the only one with data I entered this in C2 of 'Learning History Rpt' and filled down.

    =INDEX('Emp Learning History'!$B$2:$E$4,MATCH('Learning History Rpt'!$B2,'Emp Learning History'!$A$2:$A$4,0),MATCH('Emp Learning History'!B$1,'Emp Learning History'!$B$1:$E$1,0))

    Traing

    Bob
    Tect Training
    YES

    B
    C
    1
    Emp
    Traing
    2
    Bob
    Tect Training
    X

    Tom
    Del Taining
    8
    Bob

    X
    9
    Sue
    Time Training
    10
    Dave
    Time Training
    11
    Tom

    Then this?

    C
    D
    E

    Bob
    Sue
    Dave
    Tom

    Tect Training
    YES
    YES
    YES
    NO
    3
    Del Taining
    NO
    NO
    NO
    NO
    4
    Time Training
    YES
    NO
    NO
    YES


    In which case try this formula in B2 of 'Emp Learning History' then fill down and across.

    =IF(COUNTIFS('Learning History Rpt'!$A:$A,'Emp Learning History'!B$1,'Learning History Rpt'!$B:$B,'Emp Learning History'!$A2,'Learning History Rpt'!$C:$C,"X"),"YES","NO")
