Indexing correct match using LARGE formula with criteria

Please show us the results you want (mock them up manually) rather than a non-functioning and very lengthy (not going to try to reverse engineer it!) formula. You haven't explained what the logic should be.

I'll have ONE guess! Is this what you are aiming for? It gets the top three.

=TAKE(SORT('Paste-ZR63G'!A2:F5,6),3,1)

With 365, this returns the expected results:

Or maybe this?

=TAKE(SORT(FILTER('Paste-ZR63G'!A2:F5,'Paste-ZR63G'!B2:B5="261"),6),3,1)

Post #5 is a REPLACEMEDNT for your rather long 'active' formula. I think it does the same thing. Look at the attachment.

Ah, got it:

Formula:

If you also need the value:

=CHOOSECOLS(TAKE(SORT(FILTER('Paste-ZR63G'!A2:F5,'Paste-ZR63G'!B2:B5="261"),6),3),1,6)

Or this, even:

=CHOOSECOLS(TAKE(SORT(FILTER('Paste-ZR63G'!A2:F5,('Paste-ZR63G'!B2:B5="261")*(MID('Paste-ZR63G'!C2:C5,4,1)<>"3")),6),3),1,6)

This will find the columns by name:

=CHOOSECOLS(TAKE(SORT(FILTER('Paste-ZR63G'!A2:F5,(FILTER('Paste-ZR63G'!A2:F5,'Paste-ZR63G'!A1:F1="MvT")="261")*(MID(FILTER('Paste-ZR63G'!A2:F5,'Paste-ZR63G'!A1:F1="Order"),4,1)<>"3")),6),3),1,6)

In future, please explain the LOGIC of your requirements in WORDS instead of expecting us to reverse engineer a long formula.

Almost there, the last bit is that SORT index column could also change index so index "6" would not work in this case. Is there a solution without index match help?

And yes, I do agree that I had to explain more detailed what I expect from the formula. I normally solve the issue myself but in this case I struggled and couldn't find a solution. I'm sorry I took to much of your time.

And finally ...

Could have got this in one go IF you had explained the logic!
