I trying to VLOOKUP the serial number & Description from List_tbl and add to Installed_tbl. If a serial number is available return serial, if not return "EMPTY".

List_tbl

FLEET BASE SRD AIRCRAFT WUC POSITION UNIQUE_ID ALT_POSITION DESCRIPTION SERIAL
A-01 R 5 ABC JMA0601 11000   11000 0 F-15S AIRFRAME 93-0864
A-01 R 5 ABC JMA0601 11AC0   11AC0 0 RADOME ASSY (DOOR NO.1) (F-15SICR) 1757

Installed_tbl

FLEET BASE SRD AIRCRAFT WUC POSITION UNIQUE_ID ALT_POSITION DESCRIPTION SERIAL
A-01 R 5 ABC JMA0601 11000   11000 0    

I've tried the following for the serial number but having issues.

My formula: =IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($G2,List_tbl!$G2:List_tbl!$G21028,1,FALSE)),"EMPTY",J2)

Hello,

Change the lookup section in your formula to VLOOKUP($G2,List_tbl!$G2:List_tbl!$J21028,4,FALSE).

You need also to replace the J2 reference with the VLOOKUP formula in above line.

Complete formula should be =IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($G2,List_tbl!$G2:List_tbl!$J21028,4,FALSE)),”Empty”,VLOOKUP($G2,List_tbl!$G2:List_tbl!$J21028,4,FALSE))

Or, if you are using Excel tables. =IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($G2,List_tbl[[UNIQUE_ID]:[SERIAL]],4,FALSE)),”Empty”,VLOOKUP($G2,List_tbl[[UNIQUE_ID]:[SERIAL]],4,FALSE))
