- LyciasJul 13, 2023Brass ContributorHi Hans, I noticed that the formula is not giving me the data value for the most recent year. it seems like it is giving the data value for the first appearance of the Subgroup_val (column F). Is there any modification I can do so that the data value given is for the most recent year from column J?

The most recent year for Antiretroviral therapy, Total, GTM is 2019, and the corresponding data value is 18.4
Here is the result of the formula:

HansVogelaar for some reason when I use same formular it doesnt seem to pick the most recent (year) data value. I used the following =IFERROR(--INDEX(GAM_historical_data_2023!$L$2:$L$11400,MATCH(1,(GAM_historical_data_2023!$D$2:$D$11400="Prevalence of recent intimate partner violence")*(GAM_historical_data_2023!$F$2:$F$11400="Females Adults (15-49)")*(GAM_historical_data_2023!$H$2:$H$11400=$A34)*(GAM_historical_data_2023!$J$2:$J$11400=""&MAX(IF((GAM_historical_data_2023!$D$2:$D$11400="Prevalence of recent intimate partner violence")*(GAM_historical_data_2023!$F$2:$F$11400="Females Adults (15-49)")*(GAM_historical_data_2023!$H$2:$H$11400=$A34),--GAM_historical_data_2023!$J$2:$J$11400))),0)),"id")
for this dummay data:
