Excel Lookups – Standard Lookups & VLookups

Conditional Formatting Rules

In the modern age of data, being able to decipher large amounts of data can be invaluable in both saving you time and analysing data in new ways. Whether you trying to formulate data into an importable file or simply improve your employability.

We believe that having a good understanding of Excel is essential for the modern day procurement professional. Without being able to use Vlookups or create conditional formatting rules you would struggle to organise and interpret large volumes of data that is crucial in modern roles.

This spreadsheet isn’t meant to be a thorough understanding of all the different aspects of Excel. However, if you have anything else that you believe should be included just get in contact and we will do our best to include in an amended version.
