Lookup Table change with time
Hi Anonymous
From your screenshot, i'm not clear about which are "budget group", "previous years","employee number".
"One of the employees here is moving to a different budget group (change) and I am not sure how to have the data reflect that without affecting previous years. "
How do you create this lookup table?
(from another table called "source table" here ?
does the "change" occur in "source table"?)
Best Regards

I can see how my question was a bit unclear. So my expenses sheet is shown here. The employee number is used ina lookup table to find budget group.
Then we have the original lookup table that I provided. So from 2016-2018 Employee # 13472 was a part of STEER. In 2019 they will be moving to Training H. It is not possible to change their employee number because of how the data is reported. I am trying to find a way to make this changes while ensuring that they are still in the correct budget group for 2016-2018 (STEER).

Hi, my suggestion will be in your Budget Table insert Dates / Years .
Example :
Year Employee Group
2015 John B
2016 John C
2017 John C
2018 John D
With this you can calculate without problems.
