Good day,

I have a sheet with Asset Type code, Customer plant and Asset Number. The Asset Type code indicates the configuration on the machines and is not a unique number. The Customer plant is also not unique but Asset Number is unique. There can be numerous Asset numbers for one Asset Type code. I would like to include an Asset Number in the sheet horizontally (in columns, in the same row), I have a Master data sheet with all our Asset numbers, Customer Plant and Asset Type code.

I have tried some of the formulas but cannot get the result I am looking for.

The problem I am facing is, I only want to include the Asset number if the Asset Number field is blank and the Customer Plant field does not have a complete location. The locations which are incomplete with only have 3 letters (ZAC / SAC / IRC / EGC / PKC etc.)
