    Extract Information and Automatically populate another table

    Hi everyone,

    Not sure this is the correct place for this request (have moved it from another area), or if I have described it correctly, but essentially, I am wondering if it is possible to populate a table on a worksheet with information from another worksheet dependent on one column? I have attached a working example to try and explain.

    On the Compliance Matrix sheet, column F states whether the clause is compliant, non-compliant, partially compliant, removed or updated. If the clause is non- compliant or partially compliant, I would like that row and that information to automatically populate the table on the Issues List sheet. I would be then able to work through those issues, and when it becomes compliant, I would update on the Compliance Matrix sheet and it automatically disappears from the table of issues.

    I would then like to link that table to a Powerpoint, so that the issues can be presented to management and burnt down appropriately.

    Is this something that is possible? I would welcome any other ideas as to how best to do this, or improve the document.

    Thanks so much in advance for your help.

    Hi,
    Only after trying to find a solution, I discover that your version of Excel is similar to MS Excel 2019 and you may not have these features.
    But, maybe I'm wrong

    Re: Extract Information and Automatically populate another table

    Hi...and thank you for your response.

    When I open the file, it looks like it is doing the right thing, but I have tried two things; firstly, adding supplier comments in the Compliance Matrix sheet so that the detail shows up in the Issues List; and secondly, changing a compliance tag from C to NC in column F of the Complaince sheet, again to see if the table on the Issues List is updated. On both occasions, the table displays "#NAME?" in each cell of the table.

    Am I doing something wrong?

    No, you don't.
    It means that you don't have those functions in your Excel version.

    Is there a specific function I should check versions for? I will attempt to upgrade Excel so that I have the function you are talking about.

    Re: Extract Information and Automatically populate another table

    But if i use the simple filter option on the main sheet, can I still get that date to automatically update another table? Ultimately, I want to link the table to a separate reporting document in a PowerPoint. Is there another way I could do this?
