You can use PivotTable or FILTER()
Or you can create a column C which cumulatively counts the # of Ys from comp 1 to X, as you go down rows. Then use that count beneath your table, as vlookup or index match to bring in the comp which corresponds to the count...
1) Add col c called comp_ct
2) create cumulative ct using 2 formulae
1st one: if b2=y, 1,0
2nd one: sum(b2:b$2). Lock it
3) Pull it down and notice how each additional row with y increases by increment of 1. Now you have a unique Id per comp with a Y
4) Go to next tab or wherever you want the dynamic report... A200 for example, put 1 and then pull down to a300.. Assuming you want to have that many rows...
5) Do index match on the # in a200 which is found in col c above... Pull it down.. And tadaaa...
6) you could do vlookup but you'd have to insert col A and reference col D unique ct... Assuming you don't know how to use index match function
Lolol @McKinsey 1, thanks for your suggestion - would consider myself pretty good in the spreadsheets and do know how to do complex stuff, just asking to see if theses something simple and obvious that im forgetting.
@all Thanks for the suggestions above - trying to avoid pivots
I would use Unique(Filter())
Column A, Column B=CellContainingY are your filter arguments.
Let me know if you’d like additional context here. As you add Y to ColumnB your list of included values would update dynamically
Think this will work. Very much appreciated
Yes Pivot Table with Column set to Column A and Balues set to Column B. Apply filter to pivot table based on Column B.
