    How to simplify Criteria Conditions for DGET formula

    Hello

    I am working in creating a reporting tool and for this, I have an excel workbook with several worksheet. In one sheet I have the raw data and then in another I have the formatted data. For the worksheet "Sales Monthly", I need to find, in the "Raw Data" worksheet, the Client by the "Sold To" number and return all its sales for each month where Column 3 data ends in NO or AO or PO…etc

    Data in Raw data will always have the same number of columns but the number of rows will change depending if there was a a sale on the month or not.
    (*) For the Fixed cost in the current year, the data that i need to bring over to the Sales Monthly Sheet will always be in Column 8 and the data in Column 3 will end in "NO"
    (*) For the variable cost in the current year, the data that i need to bring over to the Sales Monthly Sheet will always be in Column 10 and the data in Column 3 will end in "NO" or "AO" or "PO" or "CO"

    Note: i tried using the DGET formula but since the criteria will change by date and by Material Type (ending NO, PO, AO or CO) this will mean that i need to create an enormous matrix with all the different conditions.
    I need something more automatic and simpler if possible

    I have attached an excel file so you can have a better understanding of the problem. I would really appreciate your help for making this project easier!!

Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    Maybe with a pivot table.

    See my example.

    Do you have any questions, just ask.
