How do I create an formula containing IFs, OR ANDs and lists?
Can anyone simplify this formula in the attached excel. This is just an example but the lists are very long and I wanted to see if there was a better way of doing this. Many thanks in advance it is M...

The formula is OK. I'd use ISNUMBER and MATCH for the range L6:L7 too; that makes it easier to add Cost Centers if necessary.
So:
=ROUND(IF(AND(F$2=$D3,$E3="sz"),$C3*$J$2,IF(AND(F$2=$D3,OR(ISNUMBER(MATCH($A3,$J$7:$J$13,0)),ISNUMBER(MATCH($B3,$L$6:$L$7,0)))),$C3,0)),0)
or, slightly shorter:
=ROUND(IF(F$2=$D3,$C3*IF($E3="sz",$J$2,IF(OR(ISNUMBER(MATCH($A3,$J$7:$J$13,0)),ISNUMBER(MATCH($B3,$L$6:$L$7,0))),1,0)),0),0)

Although it is probable that you are not using 365 (or Excel 2021), you did not say, so this is a single dynamic array formula
= COUNTIFS(list,costCentre)
*(header=type)
* amount
