Help required - multiple formulas needed
Good day,
I have the folloeing problems with an example workbook attached, that I was wondering whether anyone can help with. It involves formulas which I cannot get right/don't understand. Many htnaks in advance.
Problem 1)
I would like cell B2 from Sheet1 to return a ‘Yes’ if any of the corresponding answers from Sheet2 with the same account numbers match a ‘banana’ in B:B
Problem 2)
I would like cells c:c from Sheet 1 to return a result of ‘yes’, if the corresponding account number on Sheet2 has a vegetable with 3 labels matching (would expect just account number 2 to be a ‘yes’
In B2:
=IF(COUNTIFS(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$31,A2,Sheet2!$B$2:$B$31,"banana"),"yes","no")
In C2:
=IF(COUNTIFS(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$31,A2,Sheet2!$C$2:$C$31,"vegetable")>2,"yes","no")
Fill down.

If with pre-DA Excel
=IF( ISNA( MATCH(A2&"banana", Sheet2!A:A&Sheet2!B:B, 0) ), "no", "yes") =IF( COUNTIFS(Sheet2!A:A,A2, Sheet2!C:C, "vegetable" ) >= 3, "yes", "no" )- Thanks SergeiBaklan
The first formula doesn't seem to work all of the time, in a few instances I am getting a 'yes', rather than a 'no'.
For the 2nd formula, I am trying to count the number of instances I get a recurring label number (sheet2 d:d), providing that sheet2 c:c is a vegetable, using the same account number fopr both sheets.
I am on 365
1.
=LET(results,UNIQUE(FILTER(Sheet2!$B$2:$B$31,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$31=A2)),IF(XOR(results="banana"),"Yes",""))2. This formula presumes '3 labels matching' means 3 unique labels matching.
=LET(labels,UNIQUE(FILTER(Sheet2!$D$2:$D$31,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$31=A2)),IF(COUNT(labels)>2,"Yes",""))- Patrick2788
Thanks for your help, I prefer Sergei's answer for part 1, but you may be closer on the 2nd problem. I am getting a 'Yes' against account numbers 1,3,4 & 5, however I only expect to get it against account number 2, as this is a vegetable, and it has 3 labels of the same value (50)Try this:
=LET(labels,FILTER(Sheet2!$D$2:$D$31,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$31=A2),IF(COUNT(labels)>2,"Yes",""))
