    Multiple Variables for Lookup and List

    Hello. So I am having a problem company up with a formual for an analysis I am trying to create. The example below is general ledger with multiple account numbers and multiple centers. Very long sheet, about 1500 rows of information. I want to be able to pull GL information for a specific account and specific center and list that on a separate sheet. For example I want to pull GL account 5000 (payroll) in cost center 10.

    Download:
    Date Journal Entry Discription Account Amount Center
    10/31/2013 Payroll 5000 1000 10
    10/31/2013 Payroll 5000 1200 12
    10/31/2013 Payroll 5000 1100 13
    10/31/2013 Payroll 5000 1100 10
    10/31/2013 Payroll 5000 1000 10
    10/31/2013 Payroll 5000 900 11
    10/31/2013 Payroll 5000 875 16

    Result I am trying to get to:

    GL Account: 5000 Cost Center 10

    Date Journal Entry Discription Account Amount Center
    10/31/13 Payroll 5000 1100 10
    10/31/13 Payroll 5000 1000 10

    Basically I need a formula based on 2 criteria and it will list all of the transactions, not just one. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    A pivot table would work. Is that possible to use?

    It would, but they I would have multiple tabs. I was trying to just have it formual based.
