    Sorry Guys fair point, an example would be sheet 1 J3 needs to be copied to sheet 2 M5

    but this is just a little example theres a lot to copy across and theres a new report each month so this is then a monthly task. does that make a little more sense, sorry i know im terrible at explaining things.

    i spoke to soon, it works on the example but doesnt on the full report, as there are some that the data moves across and some that is putting in data for techs that have left the business and not on the esso report

    I think the problem is that the macro does not take into account that there are techs with no spend in that month because of holiday or if they left have left the business.
