    Angry Index Match Issue with internal concatenation

    Hello all,

    Fairly new using index match with excel. I've had success in the past, but it was a simpler formula. What I am trying to do is the following:

    Using "BPO Open Order Report" column "C" + "D" to look up against "Warehouse Receipts Report" where column "B" + "C" will pull in the various fields i need. I think my issue with the formula is that I am trying to concatenate within the formula instead of creating a separate column with the concatenation.

    The formula is in "BPO Open Order Report" in "O2", also posted here in case its a formatting issue.
    =INDEX('Warehouse Reciepts Report'!B2:H7,MATCH(C2&D2,'Warehouse Reciepts Report'!B2&'Warehouse Reciepts Report'!C2,0),2)

    This will work, but I would suggest to use defined ranges(Eg: B1:B1000, instead of B:B):
    =LOOKUP(2,1/('Warehouse Reciepts Report'!B:B='BPO Open Order Report'!C2)/('Warehouse Reciepts Report'!C:C='BPO Open Order Report'!D2),'Warehouse Reciepts Report'!H:H)

    Re: Index Match Issue with internal concatenation

    Try this array* formula in cell O2 of the BPO Open Order sheet:

    =INDEX('Warehouse Reciepts Report'!$H$2:$H$7,MATCH(1,(C2='Warehouse Reciepts Report'!$B$2:$B$7)*(D2='Warehouse Reciepts Report'!$C$2:$C$7),0))

    * NOTE, that an array formula needs to be confirmed using the key combination of Ctrl-Shift-Enter (CSE), rather than the usual Enter.

    Then you can copy this down as required.

    Hope this helps.

    Pete
