Desk Booking tool for locating people

Welcome to the forium.

Why do you need to add in a sheet name?

If source data is on one sheet and the results are on another, then please set up the sample workbook to match. Thanks.

There's simple and there's unrealistic. Unrealistic often requires several tweaks and the shifting of goalposts, hence we prefer realistic. I'll have another look.

Paste this into A10 of the results sheet and hit ENTER:

=SORT(HSTACK(FILTER(Sheet1!B2:F7,Sheet1!B1:F1=DATE(2024,1,1)),Sheet1!A2:A7))

You can always change it to this in due course:

=SORT(HSTACK(FILTER(Sheet1!B2:F7,Sheet1!B1:F1=TODAY()),Sheet1!A2:A7))

With booking is in sheet "Booking"
cell B$1 accross row 1 is date criteria
column A is name
In B2:

Any good?

If that takes care of your original question, please choose Thread Tools from the menu link above and mark this thread as SOLVED. You can also access the SOLVED tag by editing the opening post and choosing SOLVED from the drop-down to the left of the title box.

Also, if you have not already done so, remember that you can reward anyone who offered you help towards a solution for your issue by clicking the small star icon (* Add Reputation) located in the lower left corner of the post in which the help was given. By doing so you can add to the reputation(s) of each of those who offered help.

Yes, it can work like this (and it spills - no need to copy and paste down):

=LET(d,HSTACK(Sheet1!A2:A7,FILTER(Sheet1!B2:F7,Sheet1!B1:F1=DATE(2024,1,1))),XLOOKUP(Sheet2!A2:A7,INDEX(d,,2),INDEX(d,,1)))

or:

=LET(d,HSTACK(Sheet1!A2:A7,FILTER(Sheet1!B2:F7,Sheet1!B1:F1=TODAY())),XLOOKUP(Sheet2!A2:A7,INDEX(d,,2),INDEX(d,,1)))

or:

=LET(d,HSTACK(Sheet1!A2:A7,FILTER(Sheet1!B2:F7,Sheet1!B1:F1=A1)),XLOOKUP(Sheet2!A2:A7,INDEX(d,,2),INDEX(d,,1)))

where A1 would be a cell containing the date you wish to look up.
