Formula Duplicate values given a unique number

Good Afternoon,

 

Im after some help with a formula to automatically add a .01 to any duplicate PO found in my list

The list below has PO some are the same, i need these but would like to auto add on to them, 

example: P209757, the second duplicate would be P209757.01, then .02 etc etc.

 

Is this possible?

 

Many thanks hope this made sense.

 

PO 
P209776
P209757
P209757
P209757
P209759
P209761
P209762
P209749
P209752
P209752
  • marc47555 A quick-and-dirty solution. Try this one, supposing your list of PO's (including a header) starts in A1 and copy it down.

     

    =IF(COUNTIF($A$1:A2,A2)=1,A2,A2&".0"&COUNTIF($A$1:A2,A2)-1)
