Need help with building data validation list/filters

Hi All,

 

I am trying to build a new report on top of my existing(already present in one of the sheets in excel) data. The existing(source) data looks like below:

 

I would want the output to look like below :

 

 

I would need to build drop down filters to filter the data for a selected state/area.  And the data should be filtered as shown above - one row per option ID. The selections should be provided as drop-downs next to the options column. The only trick is that the relevant colors should appear based on the selections made above. For Eg: Color is dependent on the level data (See data for dependency on the selection ID's). So only "Brown" should appear in the drop-down for color when I select "Level1" in the above drop-down for Level. Also, I would want the output to be on another new sheet instead of the existing one. Is all of this possible in Excel?
