How to Autofill information based on a match

Good Morning Everyone,

So, I have a sheet with a list of Part Numbers with some data to the right of it (3 different columns), and a empty NEW sheet

Basically, on the NEW sheet I made, I want somebody to be able to type a part number into a specified column and have excel match what part number that was typed in with the list of part numbers already made, and if there is a match, then autofill the data that's on the 3 columns on the right into the new sheet next to the part number they typed in.

Example:

They type in:
W51501-01

(EXCEL checks other sheet to see if the part number is on the list)

Other List Data:

W51501-01 FPZ 5 1000
(EXCEL finds exact match, with W51501-01)

(EXCEL then takes the data of the columns next to the part number and autofills it next to the part number they typed in on the other sheet, also in 3 different columns)
THE data excel would take:
FPZ 5 1000


End result on NEW Sheet (sheet they typed part number into):

W51501-01.............FPZ...............5............1000
(they typed in) (Autofilled) (Autofilled) (Autofilled)


Thanks for the help!

You would use a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH formula, in conjunction with IFERROR.

Rather than me guess your sheet names and the columns you are using, it would help if you attached a sample Excel workbook (by following the guidelines in the yellow banner at the top of the screen), then I will be able to give you the exact formulae to use.

Hope this helps.

Here is an example I made

You can use this formula in cell B3 of the New_list sheet:

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($A3,'Part Number List'!$A:$D,COLUMNS($A:B),0),"")

Copy it across into C3 and D3 to get the other fields, and then copy those 3 formulae down as far as you need to (and enter new part numbers in column A as required).

Hope this helps.

Thanks!

It worked

Glad to hear it.
