Peek Value from another table based on closest date (FIFO)

girish_talele — Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:27:34 GMT

Dear Experts,

I have two data tables, one for Main Material & second for Sub Material as sown in below image.

As shown, requirement date of first two orders of main material is same i.e. 15/04/2014

Only one order is created for Sub Material (accumulation of orders) with Delivery date 10/04/2014 (5 days less than req date).

Now issue is - I have to link / display the Main Material’s Order no. in Sub material’s table (as shown below).

After trying applymap, peek, lookup functions I failed to get the required results.

Is there any function / method to achieve required result.

Thanks in advance,

Girish.

What is the common field between two tables?

May be IntervalMatch can do the trick..

Dear Manish,

Thanks for looking into, there will not be a common field between these two tables except the Main Material will appear as a "Requirement From Material" in Sub Material Table as shown below,

The data is taken from ERP (Make to Stock scenario) & against requirement of Main Material a order proposals are being created for Sub material.

We need to link those tables on basis of Requirement Date & Delivery Date on FIFO (First-In First-Out) basis.

Even Order by will not work as there may be a case where the Requirement date of Main Material are different (e.g. 15/04/2014 & 16/04/2014) but ERP/user may club these two requirement in one order of Sub material with Delivery date as 10/04/2014.

Please suggest.

Girish.
