Populate another sheet with the same columns but only selected rows - indexing

I have three columns: in column A I have Suppliers, B has Order Dates and C has Types ("Merchant" and "FBA").
How do I populate another sheet in the same Google Sheets with the same three columns but only with rows that have "FBA" in column C?
I want them to auto-populate so when I add another row in Sheet1 where column C is "FBA", it will automatically add that row to the next available row in Sheet2. I'm guessing I use the Index formula but am unsure how to use it.

Please try something like:
=query(Sheet1!A:C,"where C ='FBA'")

Excel - Have a value from column B of a 2 column reference pasted anytime the value from column A is entered on a separate worksheet

In the example I have a 2 column reference where data in column E is correlated to column F. I need the data in Column F to show up anytime data from Column E is entered in a separate worksheet if possible.
To be clear, is it possible to enter data in Column A of Sheet 1 that pulls the correlated data from column B in reference Sheet 2 and enters it into Column B of Sheet 1?
I tried using a simple function in a single sheet but it obviously doesn't do what I need.
You are after VLOOKUP or INDEX MATCH
Sheet1 b1 and fill down rows
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!E:F,2,FALSE),TEXT(,))
Or
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet2!F:F,MATCH(A1,Sheet2!E:E,0)),TEXT(,))
If you set you data up as tables the formulas will autofill down. Rather than use entire columns you can set to the ranges containing data.

Autofill multiple cells while filling one cell in Excel

The excel data looks like below:
Column A: Name
Column B: Role
Column C: Activity
Column D: Comments
Now in Columns A to C the entries are same and in Column D it is always different. Its like a timesheet of an employee.
So instead of filling Columns A to C the same, I want to put a formula such that when another entry in Column D is made, then Columns A to C are auto populated from the above filled data.
Please help.
You can create two tables using Format as Table:
If I understand you question right, you want to auto populate 2 different cells if a 3rd one is not empty.
Column A: Name
Column B: Role
Column C: Activity
Column D: Comments
Now in Columns A to C the entries are same and in Column D it is always different. Its like a timesheet of an employee.
Now in cells A to C add the following formula
=IF(NOT(ISBLANK(D1)),”Whatever you want in the cell”, “”)
What the function does is it looks if D1 cell is empty (you can also add ranges) and if it’s not; it adds “Whatever you want in the cell” to the cell holding the function; if cell D is empty, it leaves the holding cell empty
Alternatively, you can change the string to expression that fills your cell correctly

look for Column heading and sum up

I have been working with a excel file with a lot of data, which is arranged in 2 sheets.
I would like to get data from sheet 1 to sheet 2 with reference to the column headings.
For example:
So if I want to find the sum of function 1 person A with criteria 1, the command have to go and find the heading "sum of function 1" in sheet 1 and choose the data that are only under criteria 1 and sum it up in sheet 2 cell D5. (By using column heading reference instead of cell reference).
The table range is A2 : U80.
Thanks.
First you have to format your data as table (select the data -> Menu Insert -> Table). Then you rename your table, for example Table1. Let's say one of the columns you want to sum on the sheet2 is called ColumnName.
On the sheet 2 you write a formula
=SUM(Table1[ColumnName])
The result will be what you are after.
You should try it by SUMIFS(). Syntax will be
=SUMIFS(AgeRange from sheet1,NameRange Sheet1, Name cell Sheet2, PlaceRangeSh1, Place Cell Sh2)
Tell me if requires further help.

Splitting data into two columns

I have a very large Excel spreadsheet that looks like this:
However, I want to move every cell in the second column that starts with Location to the next column.
So it would look like this:
No need of VBA
Enter this formula in C2 and copy till last record
=IF(LEFT(B3,9)="Location:",B3,"")
Then copy paste values in column C, filter column B for Location:* and clear the resulting cells in column B or delete the rows (do as needed).
I would copy column B, paste it in column C then select C1 and press ctrl-- (CTRL and Minus together)
Select shift cells up and click OK.
Then either sort by column A or filter out any with a blank in column A.
You can also use this:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Location",B2)),B2,"")
Then apply conditional formatting to your data range as following:

How do I copy specific cells from sheet 1 and paste into corresponding rows of sheet 2 , based on values of cells in sheet 2?

I have Sheet 1 with lots of columns, where column A is the list of all customer codes. In sheet 2 I have column A as some selected customer codes. Now based on the selected customer codes in sheet2 I need to extract few columns (H,I,J) from sheet1, paste it into sheet 2 and export the result to a new sheet.
Excel noob here. Hope you understood my query.
Assuming customer codes are unique in column A (i.e., the same code does not appear multiple times) you can do all of this with VLOOKUP function.
No need for VBA. In column B, Sheet 2: =VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A:J,8,False) will return the value corresponding from column H (H being the eighth column of the range A:J).
Likewise do this for column I:
=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A:J,9,False)
And if you guessed also do this for column J:
=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A:J,10,False)
