Greetings,

I attempted a search but could not find any issues similar to mine.

For my job, I am trying to keep track of the number of issues and have created a pivot table to show by type, state, etc. which works fine.
I copy+paste the data directly from a log (from a company program) into this excel sheet.
For each daily shift, I have a separate sheet (I'd like to keep it this way).

*For identity purposes the information below is fake, but formatted exactly how I would like*

Sheet 1(Shift 1):

First NameLast NameStateIssue TypeResolved?
MichaelRoperoFLTechN
SandraStuartGATechY
CynthiaRobertsonCAOtherN
EmmanuelGonzalezCATechY

<tbody>

Sheet 2(Shift 2):

GeorgePhillipsMOCServiceY
MichaelRoperoFLTechN
SandraStuartGATechY
RubenGrimesMOTechY

Sheet 3 (Shift 3):

As you see, my company's software does not remove entries from previous shifts, but I would like each sheet to only display NEW entries to each shift, and remove those that were in previous shifts after I copy+paste from the log.

To use the above sheets as an example:
Sheet 2 should remove the entries that are already present in Sheet 1
Sheet 3 should remove the entries that are already present in Sheet 1 and Sheet 2.

I would like to create a macro or any other way to achieve this.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
I also need to include that there can be as many as 2000+entries being copied per shift and as many as 8 shifts(sheets) per day I would like to compare to.

Thanks in advance!
