    Question Formula to auto-fill Index/Match not working

    I am trying to get a chart of accounts number to auto-fill when a couple of items are true. I thought maybe index / match might work, but now I'm thinking something else because I can't get the proper result, just keep getting an N/A...

    Formula: =INDEX(V$1:Y$65534,MATCH(V1:V7,X$1:X$65534,0)+1+MATCH(G12,W1:W25,0)+1+MATCH(I12,W1:W25)+1+MATCH(K12,W1:W25)+1+MATCH(M12,W1:W25)+1+MATCH(O12,W1:W25)+1+MATCH(Q12,W1:W25)+1+MATCH(S12,W1:W25))

    Maybe a logical formula?

    Re: Formula help

    What I need is the cell in A13 to define what the COA# is based on the Job# entered per day. Example : Car Rental associated with 783 will be 4600-1000, but Car Rental associated with 775 will be 8600-0000. Anything associated with 775 will have a different overhead code that isn't billable so the COA#'s are different. Any other Job# will be billable so it gets a different COA#

    I think this is what you are looking for:

    Extend the range as per requirement

    Re: Formula to auto-fill Index/Match not working

    Thanks, but no, because I need it to look up more than those two COA#'s. That was just an example. Equipment Rentals associated with 775 will be 8470-0000 but any other job # will be 8220-0000 and so on and so on. I can segregate the one list into 2 different columns so the formula can pull from one for 775 and the other for everything else. This is just frustrating me to no end.

    Re: Formula to auto-fill Index/Match not working

    Ok, what I have done is alter the selection criteria for column A by identifying it with either 775 or WIP before the selection and have segregated the COA #'s into 2 columns for searching. Should I use an IF/MATCH? All help is GREATLY appreciated!
