Which lookup should I use?
Hi!
B4:C13 (2 years of holidays)
Is B4:B13 for the current year and C4:C13 for next year?
Why not just use a single column and include the year in the date format?
When you use the short date format the year defaults to the current year.
Then, a formula like this:
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(B3,Holiday_Sheet!B4:B23,0)),Rat e*Multiplier,Rate)

Hi,
I have a spreadsheet that calculates hours worked and wages due based on
an
hourly rate. If people work on public holidays then the rate is different.
I
have the public holidays for the year in a separate sheet in array B4:C13
(2
years of holidays) in a short date format like 26-Oct, 27-Oct etc. On my
main
worksheet I have the date in the same format in cell B3. What I need to do
is
if the date in B3 is in the array B4:C13 (in the separate sheet) meaning
that
it is a public holiday, then I need to apply a multiplier to the rate -
for
example the rate may be doubled or more. Which lookup option should I use
for
this?
regards,
Scott
