    Duplicate formula in rows as pivot table expands

    I have data that I am breaking up into multiple Rows. In this case in Column a is the pivot table with "Rack" and "Format Bin" In my example here "Rack" is 01 and 05 and the "Format Bin" is 01-01-01-01, 01-01-01-02, 01-01-02-01...and so on.

    In column B I have a formula that does a vlookup against column A and puts the item number and qty. Here is the formula

    =VLOOKUP(B9,BinItem,4,FALSE)&" Qty: "&VLOOKUP(B9,BinItem,6,FALSE)

    What I want to happen is when the pivot table is refreshed, have the forumulas in column B replicate down the rows for the "Format Bin" rows. But when the pivot table is refreshed they dont replicate.

    Any ideas on how to make this work?

    Re: Duplicate formula in rows as pivot table expands

    Whenever I hear about formulas "duplicating down," I think of Excel tables. The way I would design this system is to copy / paste the results of the pivot table into an excel table and let it do the work.

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. 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 shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.
    One spreadsheet to rule them all. One spreadsheet to find them. One spreadsheet to bring them all and at corporate, bind them.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sample spreadsheet is more likely to be worked on.
