search for a number in another column - google-sheets

I have a large dataset, in it, Column A has an ID, and in Column B (texts with ID). I want Column C to display if the value exists or not if exists then leave the cell blank if not then show the number which should be in the cell.
The IDs will start from the first left (as shown in the screenshot).
I used the "=REGEXMATCH(B2:B(A2:A))" but it didn't work.
Thank you

Try the following formula-
=MAP(A2:A4,B2:B4,LAMBDA(x,y,IF(REGEXMATCH(y,x&"")=FALSE,X,"")))
To refer full column as input to MAP() function, use-
=MAP(A2:INDEX(A2:A,COUNTA(A2:A)),B2:INDEX(B2:B,COUNTA(A2:A)),LAMBDA(x,y,IF(REGEXMATCH(y,x&"")=FALSE,X,"")))

Google sheet Query formula that use text from one column to match another column returning text from adjacent cell

I have a dropdown text column, Claims!B2:B that is supposed to match Ref!A2:A and select Ref!B2:B text.
I tried
=ArrayFormula(IF($B$2:$B="","", LOOKUP($B$2:$B,Ref!$A$2:$A,Ref!$B$2:$B)))
some results not consistent
=QUERY(Ref!A2:B,"Select B where A = "&B2:B&"")
resulting in error
=FILTER(Ref!B2:B,Ref!$A$2:$A=B2:B)
wrong results and not arrayed.
I like to know what should be the simplest array formula for the scenario and if possible correct my other trials for my learning process.
Sample data attached. sample supplier
Please use
for your Category column
=INDEX(IFNA(VLOOKUP(B2:B,Ref!A2:C,3,0)))
and for your GST Stats
=INDEX(IFNA(VLOOKUP(B2:B,Ref!A2:C,2,0)))
(As you notice the only difference is the column number from 2 to 3)
Functions used:
INDEX
IFNA
VLOOKUP

Lookup and fetch multiple delimited partner names

I have list of partner name codes, delimited by space. Like the one shown in below,
I have another table(E:F), from where I have to map them to show the partner names like the column C, perhaps i am not able to understand how to make it happen,
I have tried using this formula which brings only one partner name but when there are multiple it does not shows up, do i need to add another function like TEXTJOIN or what I am doing wrong here.
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(IFERROR(REGEXEXTRACT(A2,JOIN("|",FILTER($E$2:$E,$E$2:$E<>""))),""),$E$2:$F,2,0),"")

See my sheet ("Erik Help"). The following formula is in cell B1:
=ArrayFormula({"PARTNER NAMES";IF(A2:A="",,REGEXREPLACE(TRIM(TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(SPLIT(A2:A," ",0,1),D:E,2,FALSE)&",")),,COLUMNS(SPLIT(A2:A," ",0,1))))),",$",""))})
This one formula produces the header (which you can change within the formula itself as you like) and all results for all rows.
IF(A2:A="",,...) means if a cell in Col A is blank, then the result in the same row of Col B will also be blank (i.e., null).
SPLIT (the first time in the formula) will split the Col-A values at the spaces.
VLOOKUP will try to find each split value in the D:E list. If found, the full name will replace the initials. If not found, IFERROR will return null.
You will see &",". That is appending a comma to any full names that are returned.
TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE...),,COLUMNS())) is what many call "QUERY Smash." It basically, flips the remaining results of the VLOOKUP into columns instead of rows, turns everything into headers (to get them in one cell per column) and then flips them back to row orientation.
TRIM gets rid of spaces where no names were found in the full list.
REGEXREPLACE(... ,",$","") replaces any final comma that has no name after it with null.

Function to find value in another column

I have a "menu" sheet set up in a work book. It has two columns. Column A are locations. Dallas, Austin, etc. Column B are drop down menus that are Yes or No.
I am looking to develop a function where I can search through column B. If the cell in column B is yes, it grabs the value from column A. If it is set to No, it continues along to the next row.
Those cities and column A are also functions. So if Column B says yes, it runs function Dallas();
Thank you
sounds like you need FILTER:
=FILTER(menu!A:A; menu!B:B="yes")

Google Sheets Fill Down with Formula

I have a very hard problem to solve, which must be completed with a formula (not a script).
Basically, the Raw input column needs to be dynamically filled down until it hits the next piece of text.
Here's an example file with includes the expected output.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ibqCvY39NlhCRWsbBdxKITUUpVpp9wXdEz44T-pHDY0/
Is it even possible to achieve?
Thanks
This will work based on your ask, assuming that A2 is never blank, place this in the first row of data (not header):
=ArrayFormula(IF(A2:A<>"", A2:A, B1:B))
It checks to see if there is a value in column A, if there is, it fills that column, if not, it copies the cell above.
Delete everything in Column B (including the header) and place the following formula in B1:
=ArrayFormula({"Header";VLOOKUP(FILTER(ROW(A2:A),ROW(A2:A)<=MAX(FILTER(ROW(A2:A),A2:A<>""))),FILTER({ROW(A2:A),A2:A},A2:A<>""),2,TRUE)})
Here is a basic explanation of how this formula works:
A virtual array is created between the curly brackets { }; this virtual array contains a header and all results. You can change the header name to whatever you like.
VLOOKUP looks up every row number that is less than or equal to the highest row number that contains text in A2:A. Each of these qualifying rows is looked up in a second array that contains only the row numbers and Column-A data from non-blank rows, returning the data itself. Since rows are in perfect ascending order and the last parameter of VLOOKUP is set to TRUE, all blank rows in the first array will "fall backward" to find the most recent row that did have something in Column A.

How can I count the number of occurrences previously appearing in the same column with arrayformula()

I am receiving email addresses submitted via a google form so I need to autopopulate the 3rd column - "count".
I need to count the number of PREVIOUS occurrences of an email address in the same column.
An example of the desired output can be seen below.
Please note that the information is received from a Google form and therefore new lines are automatically appended so I need the formula also to be automatically added in the new row.
Assuming the email adresses in column B, starting in row 2 you can try
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(LEN(B2:B), COUNTIFS(B2:B, B2:B, ROW(B2:B), "<="&ROW(B2:B))-1,))
You should check out the "COUNTIF(<range>, <condition>)" method.
https://support.google.com/docs/answer/3093480?hl=en
If column A is full of email adresses, then the cells in column B could have the method =COUNTIF($A$1:A1, A1)-1, =COUNTIF($A$1:A2, A2)-1, =COUNTIF($A$1:A3, A3)-1 and so on.
Each cell counts all cells in column A whose content matches exactly the one to the left.
