Lookup data in table and insert various columns into row in worksheet

Copper Contributor

I want to have a dropdown list from a table created from a supplier that shows in a row with a description but also an item number and a rate in various columns in the table.

I can get the description "data Validation"

but cant see how to get the other 2 from the table. I've tried VLOOKUP & HLOOKUP and XLOOKUP has me confused.

 

Can someone help me please!

I have named the columns in the table as; "Item Number" "Description" and "Rate". There is over 200 rows in the table all with different Item numbers but some duplicated Descriptions.

 

My quote worksheet is under and you can see how I have accessed via Data Validation, different descriptions but I need to input the Item Number and the corresponding Rate for each, from the table

 

Hope you can help.

@Jeffjeff1945 

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B2,'Current Support Items'!$B$2:$I$8,8,FALSE),"value not found in column support item name")

You can try this formula in cell K2.

=IFERROR(INDEX('Current Support Items'!$A$2:$A$8,MATCH(Quote!B2,'Current Support Items'!$B$2:$B$8,0)),"value not found in column support item name")

You can try this formula in cell A2.
