So I am wanting to add the information from the below table (Table1):
to the table below (Table2):
to arrive at the below output (TableOutput):
The orange formatting is just to provide a visual of the information from Table1 that is being added to Table2.
The order of the invoices as they appear in TableOutput is not important.
Table1 shows that invoice number Tesla1 is paid. Since Tesla1 can be found on Table2, we just need to update the Paid column with "Yes".
Table1 shows an invoice number Tesla2 as being paid. But Tesla2 is not found in Table2. And so we want to add the invoice number Telsa2 into Table2 and also update the Paid column with "Yes"
I tried to merge them in PQ but the two tables just horizontally stack next to each other and I can't get the invoice numbers/Paid columns to appear in their respective columns.
Also, I'm not sure if this is best done by PQ or formulas? Feels like it is harder than it looks. Would appreciate your recommendations.
| Invoice | Paid |
| Tesla1 | Yes |
| Tesla2 | Yes |
to the table below (Table2):
| Invoice | Invoice Date | Due Date | Amount | Paid |
| Tesla1 | 01-Jan-24 | 30-Jan-24 | 1000 | |
| Tesla3 | 01-Jan-24 | 30-Jan-24 | 500 | Yes |
to arrive at the below output (TableOutput):
| Invoice | Invoice Date | Due Date | Amount | Paid |
| Tesla1 | 01-Jan-24 | 30-Jan-24 | 1000 | Yes |
| Tesla3 | 01-Jan-24 | 30-Jan-24 | 500 | Yes |
| Tesla2 | Yes | |||
