Cannot Lookup nor Firstnonblank, how can I solve this?

Hi All,

I have been trying to come up with a solution to this problem;

I need to let the "belong to fab category?" boolean be checked whenever a cost element list item belong to that particular fab category (e.g. "direct labor")

Now, the user has been already giving me this information in another module:

However, the list of this module is different from mine, featuring a combination of cost center and cost element. As you can see though, the cost element (as I have it in the first module) appears in the last column.

I was wondering if there was a way to pull out the Fab Category from this last module and push it into the first one, because there seem to be all the informaiton I need but apparently no lookup and not even firstnonblank formula can help, as far as I know (given that the same cost element can be matched to multiple cost centers and multiple fab categories).

Many thanks,

Luca

Can you please put together in Excel and share the source and target modules and it's dimensions for better understanding.

@Dikshant Hope it's clearer now:

SOURCE MODULE

rows: cost center | cost element list

columns: FAB Category, Cost Center, Cost Element line items

pages: none

TARGET MODULE

rows: cost element list

columns: fab category list

pages: belongs to fab category? line item
