I have an issue error #N/A Message with VLOOKUP and LOOKUP function, as it is shown on the image I can't find out where is the error, can you help me guys
The value you look up must be found in the first column of the vlookup range.
You can try reordering the columns in an virtual array. For the highlighted cell (in the image you shared) that would make the formula:
=VLOOKUP("5f8961ec", {$K$2:$K$26, $J$2:$J$26}, 2, false)
Of course, you can also replace the value '5f8961ec' with a cell reference.
use in E1 after you delete everything in it:
=INDEX(IFNA(VLOOKUP(A1:A, {K2:K, J2:J}, 2, )))

I am using the array formula below to apply the same formula to new rows when they are added. However, when new rows are added, it messes up the formula (I think it is autocorrecting, or something). I went to Tools and turned off all autocomplete functions. Does anyone know what could be happening?
The formula I am using:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(LEN(C2:C),IF(C2:C<TODAY(),1,0),))
try to freeze it:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(LEN(INDIRECT("C2:C")),IF(INDIRECT("C2:C")<TODAY(),1,0),))
or if this is a form sheet use this formula in row 1:
={""; ARRAYFORMULA(IF(LEN(C2:C),IF(C2:C<TODAY(),1,0),))}
You're missing a "false" case in the outer IF statement.
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(LEN(C2:C),IF(C2:C<TODAY(),1,0),**missing**))
Also I don't think you can use a column for the len() function. I'm not sure what the context of this formula is but I suggest trying to remove the ARRAYFORMULA() like so:
IF(LEN(C1),IF(C1<TODAY(),1,0),**some false case**)
I am trying to calculate my earnings on a Google Spreadsheet but have no idea what I am doing. I got this far with spreadsheets, but VLOOKUP returns a #N/A error and I can't calculate the sum in column B5. What am I doing wrong? Here's my spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bsbQ4_0cITvdTqWWdX-Et1fiTL9Qw3WD_aminlpqgwY/edit?usp=sharing
The error message #N/A is caused by the VLOOKUP operation in cell D9. It is looking up cell C9, which is blank. There must be a value in a VLOOKUP operation. If you want to make this message go away, either put a value into C9 or use the IFERROR function. This only gives a value if the output is not an error. In cell D9, you can put this formula:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C9,$C$2:$D$5,2,FALSE)). This should return nothing if there is an error.
I am trying to get a VLOOKUP to work on an entire column (minus the header), but I want blank entries if the column I am searching for is empty. I tried both these formulas, but to no avail (I still get the N/A in empty cells):
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ISBLANK(VLOOKUP(O2:O,Sheet1!B:C,2,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(O2:O,Sheet1!B:C,2,FALSE)))
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(O2:O<>"",VLOOKUP(O2:O,Sheet1!B:C,2,FALSE)),"")
This is a slightly more complicated way than what I got working in another part of my sheet, which is the same without the VLOOKUP:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ISBLANK(J2:J),"",J2:J))
Any ideas what am I doing wrong?
If you want to leave a blank instead of #N/A in a cell, you can use =IFERROR.
Like this:
=IFERROR(Your_formula, "value if the formula returns an error")
Since you are using ARRAYFORMULA, the iferror must be inside it
=ARRAYFORMULA(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(O2:O,Sheet1!B:C,2,FALSE),""))
My goal is to fill down formula while data exist in an adjacent column.
Here is my original formula:
=index(lookups!$M$2:$M30,match($A3,lookups!$N$2:$N30,0))
This formula works in that results are returned as expected.
I then tried this in the hope of it copying down:
=index(lookups!$M$2:$M30,match($A3:A,lookups!$N$2:$N30,0))
This resulted in #N/A "Did not find value in match"
Then I read this post and looked at the second most voted answer and tried editing my formula to this:
=arrayFormula(index(lookups!$M$2:$M30,match($A3:A,lookups!$N$2:$N30,0)))
This time the formula copy down as I hoped, but with a #VALUE error "Function IF parameter 1 expects boolean values. But 'ADT- Alaska Travel Vendor Activities (Search)' is a text and cannot be coerced to a boolean."
How can I tell sheets to copy the index(Match()) all the way down while data exist in column A?
See if this formula delivers the desired output ?
=ARRAYFORMULA(iferror(vlookup(A3:A, {lookups!$B$2:$B, lookups!$A$2:$A}, 2, 0)))
I've a column of sample data where each cell is either blank or (3 alpha chars, 1 white space, 1 digit). For example:
I need to check if the cell begins with "GTR" or "DBT", then return the number, and sum the return of the column. I'm using the formula below:
=ARRAYFORMULA(sum(IF(OR(left(A1:A10,3)="GTR",left(A1:A10,3)="DBT"),VALUE(right(A1:A10,1)),0)))
The problem is that instead of returning 20, it returns 52.
In fact it appears to return the last char of any cell in the range. (eg. if "A5" has a value of 'someText' the formula returns an error because value() can't parse 't' into a number.
I'd like to know if anyone can tell me how to solve this problem, or if there's something wrong with my formula?
Here's an example of this problem in a Google Sheet:

The ArrayFormula plus OR will evaluate to TRUE if any of the cells in the range is in the codition, to overcome this remove the OR, and add an IF for every condition, as such:
=ARRAYFORMULA(sum(IF(left(A1:A10;3)="GTR";VALUE(right(A1:A10;1));0);IF(left(A1:A10;3)="DBT";VALUE(right(A1:A10;1));0)))
In addition to the solution of Kriggs, this formula should also work:
=ArrayFormula(sum(if(regexmatch(B3:B12, "GTR|DBT")=TRUE, right(B3:B12)+0,)))
