Good day everyone!
So I have this excel table containing 2 columns : "Department" and "Incumbent Position" (it normally also contains name and other data of the employees but I have reduced it to this).
Every department has a number of specific positions, and what I am looking for is a way so that if I input a certain position for an employee, the "Department" cell will update to the Department that correlates to that position. I hope I am explaining this well enough.
So if I want to update the position of John as "Clinical Research Associate", I want Excel to automatically update the "Department" of John to "Clinical Operations".
The Excel table has 2 Sheets: "Employee List" and "Positions".
Inside the "Positions" sheet, I have created a table with every department on the first row and their specific positions below.
What formula can give me the possibility of doing this? Is it possible to do it without the second sheet(not necessarily, but I'm curious)?
Thanks in advance!
