I am trying to build a table and formula to look up the phase of a project
based on the week that a piece of work was done. I need to do this for multiple projects with different start dates. I have built the table listed below. I can change the Phase start date to End date if needed. Column A Column B Column C Project Phase Start Date Phase Name Project A 5/21/2007 Concept Project A 9/30/2007 Plan Project A 10/30/2007 Develop Project B 2/28/2007 Concept Project B 5/31/2007 Plan Project A 12/1/2007 Rollout I have been trying to do this using the concatenate feature to combine the Project and Date columns, then use VLOOKUP to find the appropriate Phase, but I get mostly NAs or inconsistent data at best. An example of what I need to see is below: Assuming that project A had work performed for the week of 5/25/07, I would expect a result of Concept, because the next date for Project A in the table is 9/30/07. Therefore, any date for Project A between 5/25/07 and 9/29/07 should have a result of Concept. In addition, for a week end date of 11/23/07 I would expect a result of Develop, and any dates after 12/1/07 should have a result of Rollout. Is there any way to build this table and formula to return these results? Any help anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rob |
