    Im getting a #N/A error on this index/match formula

    Screen Shot 2021-12-11 at 11.56.26 PM.png


    How do I fix this so that the index/match nested function works?

    Welcome to the forum.

    The MATCH function requires a one-dimensional array.

    However, there is no match for 80.

    Try

    =IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$H$28),MATCH($K$16,$A$2:$A$28,0),5)),"")

    so you get a blank cell if there is no match for value in K16

    As per Ali's reply, MATCH requires a one dimensional (single column) array.
    If that takes care of your original question, please select Thread Tools from the menu link above and mark this thread as SOLVED.

    Along with what has already been said, it looks as though col A is text & not numbers, so try
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    And are you wishing to sum several lines or is is always a unique match. The reason I ask is I see two 081 in the image.
