I like to transition data to assigned columns.

My apology in advance. I am using a company computer that has disabled installing any applications/add-ins, so I cannot provide an XL2BB file. Hopefully, I can explain the dilemma clearly using a snap shot.

  • Source system has four fields (highlighted in Blue)
  • Destination System has ten fields (highlighted in Yellow)
  • A mapping table is created at the bottom (highlighted in Green)

I like to transfer the data from blue section to the yellow section based on the mapping in Green section.

It would have been an easier task if it was a one time deal. However, Several source systems have different assignments. For example, one source system can have "CSR" mapped to "Role-5" while another system may have that mapped to "Role-10"

Also, sometimes one role (source system) can mapped to two roles (destination system). CSR as an example here (Role-5 & Role-7)

What is the best way to transition this data. I just thought of the mapping table, However, if there is a better way, I am open to that option as well.

Please feel free to ask questions if I did not explain the dilemma clearly.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Excel Facts

Who is Mr Spreadsheet?
Author John Walkenbach was Mr Spreadsheet until his retirement in June 2019.
What is the desired outcome for that sample data?
Please manually fill that in then copy range B2:R25 and paste directly into the forum. It will not be as good as XL2BB but at least helpers will be able to copy it for testing, unlike the image.

Hope this is helpful. It does not get the row and column titles.

It certainly is since we can copy it. Thanks.

Sure, but we can easily see where to paste from your image or, if there was no image you just need to say, for example, "Source System is in cell C1"

See if this would suit you.
