Hello
I'm using a PC – Excel 2013
I need help with a formula.
In column Z, I have a formula that is looking at column E, if the product matches the product listed between row 38- 65, and column J 38-65, states yes, then we need to supply a 5% discount from column N.
I need a 5% discount off of the price for Print charge (column N).
I know there is a better way to complete this. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Please see attached example.
Thanks

Hi Amy
A VLOOKUP should solve your problem.
Try this : In cell Z10 enter =IF(VLOOKUP(E10,$E$38:$J$65,6,FALSE)="Yes",5%,0)*-N10
A more preferred way is to have the 5% entered into the row 38-65 replacing "Yes" and 0% to replace "No"
Then any changes to the discount structure will only involve changing the lookup table instead of the formulas.
Hope this helps.
