Filter data using vlookup

I am trying to create a way to easily filter data and display totals for specific customers. I think this can be accomplished using VLOOKUP but I am stuck.

Can somebody assist me to show me how I can display the total amount for Customer 1, Customer 2, and Customer 3 in their own cells? Example below:

Thanks in advance!

SUMIF might be more useful

Try this. I hope you enjoy this tool

Another great solution. Thank you :slight_smile:

Hello,

check / study the following formula based solution (which looks a bit too complicated due your usage of the phrase TOTAL in conjunction with the Customer Name in the same cell).

Hope that helps.

Thank you! This works great.

However, it seems that there was a slight issue with the formula because the range $B$1:$B$10 was off

=SUMIF($A$2:$A$10,REGEX(A12," TOTAL",""),$B$1:$B$10)

But the value here does work:

=SUMIF($A$2:$A$10,REGEX(A12," TOTAL",""),$B$2:$B$10)

Thanks again. I really appreciate the help!

Sorry for the typo - updated sample file.
