    Multiply by matching cell values

    Hi ,

    I am trying to divide the total number of hours for my team members based on the role into "design", "build", "test" categories. I have the factors available for this split. Please see image in the attached.

    For John Doe and Rob King , I expect the design , build and test hours to be as follows:

    Design = 0.25* Total Hours
    Build = 0.6* Total hours
    Test = 0.15* Total hours

    What should be the formula in columns D, E and F so that i can use that to populate for large number of rows (100 plus) . The intent is to be able to have a formula in place that will use the factors in columns I, J , K by matching the roles in columns B to H.

    Any help is much appreciated.

    Re: Multiply by matching cell values

    Welcome to the forum!

    Will you please attach a sample Excel workbook? We are not able to work with or manipulate a screenshot of one.

    1. Make sure that your sample data are REPRESENTATIVE of your real data. The use of unrepresentative data is very frustrating and can lead to long delays in reaching a solution.

    2. Make sure that your desired solution is also shown (mock up the results manually).

    3. Make sure that all confidential data is removed or replaced with dummy data first (e.g. names, addresses, E-mails, etc.).

    4. Try to avoid using merged cells as they cause lots of problems.

    Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment, so to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.

    Please pay particular attention to point 2 (above): without an idea of your intended outcomes, it is often very difficult to offer appropriate advice.

    Which version of Excel are you using? Your screenshot and version in your profile do not match.

    Try

    =$C2*INDEX($I$3:$K$7,MATCH($B2,$H$3:$H$7,0),MATCH(D$1,$I$2:$K$2,0))
