Need to delete rows from supplier stock list to only show stock I sell

    Exclamation Need to delete rows from supplier stock list to only show stock I sell

    Please Help!! 🙏

    Its been a while since i've worked with excel hence asking what is probably a simple question.

    But I have a sheet containing around 70 stock order numbers (like part number) for the products I sell from a supplier. Each day, I receive a report (.csv) from my supplier that has ALL (around 2000) of their available stock details and changes.

    As I am only needing to update details for the products I am selling, I need to either delete rows from my suppliers list that don't match my stock order numbers OR alternatively, export a new .csv file with updated details of my products only with details from suppliers report.

    So in summary if my stock order number (on one sheet) matches my suppliers stock order number (on a different sheet), I need the all details (approx. 19 columns) from suppliers report and if it doesn't, I don't need to know about it. (delete from suppliers csv??)

    Hoping to get a speedy resolve as this issue is vital to integrate a new function in my online business product feed.

    Many thanks in advance🙏

    Hi Esales and welcome to the forum,

    You can use the Advanced Filter to ferret out only your stock numbers to another sheet. You would pull all 2000 into a worksheet. Then on another sheet have a column of your stock numbers and use those as a Filter Criteria to show only your products. I'll build an example in a minute and post it here. You just need to start the Advanced Filter process on the sheet where your want your product list to go.
    Here is my example attached in the link below:

    Thanks heaps Marvin
    Am having a play now and its not quite working??? Probably me but i have attached two .csv files in this thread. Is any chance you could please run through it with the actual data I will be using please. Also, I take it that for the advanced filter to work, the files need to be .xlxs as opposed to .csv?? I need my final output to be a .csv so it can feed into the back end of another platform. Any ideas

    Either your files are too big to attach or you haven't figured that out yet.

    Also - the column headings must be EXACTLY the same spelling and no space after one without the same on the other. Your criteria needs to be the whole list of your products (in a single column).
    Go to YouTube and watch a few videos showing Advanced Filter if you are still unsure.

    You will be able to save as .csv after you extract your products.

    I'm headed to bed now but will search for this tomorrow. Good luck - I hope you can solve this one.
    I see you attached above so I'll work on it now.....

    OK here it is with a picture of the Advanced Filter dialog inserted.
