Excel LOOKUP with multiple outcomes

Currently I am using the formula: =LOOKUP("Pending", DK6, A6)

So if the cell contents of DK6 says “Pending” it displays the value from cell A6.

I need to add some more clauses and would appreciate some help on how to construct the formula. The logic I am looking for is as follows…

LOOKUP("Pending", DK6, A6) > ?ELSEIF? > LOOKUP(“Delegated”, DK6, leave cell blank) > ?ELSEIF? > LOOKUP(“Rejected”, DK6, leave cell blank) > ?ELSEIF? > LOOKUP(blank cell, DK6, leave cell blank)

To get lists of multiple matching rows you can apply SMALLL() to pick up the first, second, third, etc. value.

          

The formula in DL2 is,

=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$99, SMALL(INDEX(ROW($1:$98)+($DK$2:$DK$99<>"Pending")*1E+99,,),ROW(1:1))),"")
  ... or,
=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$99, SMALL(INDEX(ROW($1:$98)+($DK$2:$DK$99<>DL$1)*1E+99,,),ROW(1:1))),"")

To gather cells in column A where column DK is blank is a little different.

=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$99, SMALL(INDEX(ROW($1:$98)+(($A$2:$A$99="")+($DK$2:$DK$99<>""))*1E+99,,),ROW(1:1))),"")

These formulas seem to be a better fit than the array formulas provided in another thread. The values in column A are by nature unique so that does not have to be compensated for.

If you want ELSEIF formulas, you need to nest IF formulas, for example:

=IF(DK6="Pending",A6,IF(DK6="Delegated","",IF(DK6="Rejected","",IF(DK6="",""))))

The logic you gave could be simplified because there's leave cell blank in last three cases, so you could just use:

=IF(DK6="Pending",A6,"")
