I have a total of 26 job roles so this goes on for 26 rows, on sheet 2 I have to input the hours for each individual worker, at the moment I have manually input each role which isn’t too difficult with copy and paste and fill down butwas wondering if there would be a way to generate automatically, for the above example sheet 2 would then display in column A the below outcome
