Hi Excel Experts,
I have a tricky but solvable issue. I am not new to excel, but I can't call myself an expert, so I am stuck in this situation.
I have a IT Services business. And on daily basis, I have to deal with different type of projects. To do these projects, I need employees with different skills. And most of these employees are freelancers, and they charge me different prices for their services.
Problem-1: I want to find best employee for the job in minimum price.
So I created one table for type of projects. (Total types: 43)
And one table for employees with their skills. (Total employees: 210)
And here arose the issue:
Issue-1: For example, an employee can do 12 types of projects.
Employee Name | Area of Expertise
John Doe | A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L
Do you see the problem? I have to write 12 types of expertise in a single cell. And similarly for other employees. So not only the table becomes messy, it's impossible to sort through it to find the best employees for the job.
Then I used another sheet and wrote all types of projects. And this time also I got similar issue.
Type of Project | Employee who can do it
Project-X | John Doe-1, John Doe-2, John Doe-3 and so on
Can you please guide me how I should go about it?
