    Date is Time Stamped PO no is doing a look up to goods in for the relevant PO no so is code; description; size from the goods in sheet

    This is where i im stuck what i am trying to do is take the Qty out and deduct it from the Qty in to give me the qty left for specific PO no and Product Code is there a way i can do it in excel

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are demonstrated, mock them up manually if needed. Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    I still don't understand the issue. Please try and explain it in as simple terms as possible with examples of the expected results. I've read your explanation over a couple of times after seeing your sheets and I don't get what you want.

    No Problem i do have the knack to confuse even my self most of the time but ill try and put it down as i see it in my head.

    Basically it works like a warehouse program

    1: Goods come in on a PO (lets say 100 come in on PO1234)
    2: i put it in a location A-1-B
    3: i get an order (CSG0001) that is Linked to the PO1234 but they only want 50 (that leaves 50 still in location A-1-B)
    4: a month later i get and order (CSG01001) when i type in the PO1234 in and it brings up that line it should show that i have 50 left and not the 100 that came in originally.

    That is basically what i am trying to accomplish with my limited knowledge.

    I would suggest that you use three sheets. One for receipts, One for shipments out. For each product, on a third sheet, a sumif formula for all receipts for each product. In then next column a sumif formula for all shipments. In the third column the net of the two sumifs.
