    How Should I do this? Createing table from data from several other tables

    My family owns a Fast Casual Middle Eastern/ Mediterranean Restaurant. I'm taking charge of making it as profitable as can be! Our plates are different combinations of kebabs, rice, Falafels, Gyros, salad, platters. So theirs tons of combinations.

    I am Dead serious about knowing REAL plate costs:

    I spent days entering price data, weighing meat, produce, calculating usable yields. I then built "component builders" using data validation drop-downs, and Index + Match functions to construct the costs of the recipe items,standard base items and side items. So I now know How much a skewer of Marinated Kebab Costs me, and all the Components that go into building a plate.

    I've now built a "Plate Builder" (See Pic) to create the EVERY combination available at our restaurant. So when I'm done filling in all the builders, I'll have a whole lot of tables. I'd like to pull the name and plate cost from each table and create a big table organized by whether its eat in or take out. How do I do it.

    TL;DR:
    Need to create a table that pulls data from several other tables....

    Welcome to the Forum Kavemonster!

    An image attachment almost never has value. Don't attach a screenshot of your Excel file--just attach the file! It's easier than taking a screenshot first and then attaching that.

    It will be much easier to understand your problem if you provide your file. This allows us to see your data, layout, code (if there is any), and once we understand the problem, having your file will let us experiment with your data, formulas, and code, and possibly attach a file with a completed solution.
