Formula - Finding data in multiple columns and combine in 1

[JDJong]

Hello everyone,

I am coming across with coming up a formula to summarize the description.

basically I would like to find the Serial number in column A. If it is other or reserve, then no further steps to be taken, other than that, I would like to find the respective payment type, period start, period and in column K,L,M and retrieve the value in column F.

the lines marked in red are the expect results.

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Let me know if you Need further clarification.

Best regards

Hi, I hope this helps:
First, use an if statement combined with an or-gate to filter out everything that has either "other" or "reserve" in it, then for all other cases combine the string to one string: "=IF(OR(A2="other",A2="Reserve"),"",CONCAT(K2,"_",L2,"-",M2,"_SN_",A2))

Thank you Ryeera for your Response.

I have implemented this to make it work;
IF(OR(A2={"Other","Reserve"}),"",K2&"_"&L2&"-"&M2&"_SN_"&A2)

perhaps the concat function doesn't work here.

perhaps the concat function doesn't work here.

For the CONCAT() function you must be using Excel 2016. Your alternative is just as simple anyway.
