SheetsdrillLatest status in a log
A Google Sheets formula exercise from Sheetsdrill. Solve it with a formula bar on a live sheet in your browser, and it is checked the moment you submit.
The task
The log adds a new line every time an order changes. Return the most recent status for the order in F1, which is its last line in the log. Use XLOOKUP. Answer in F2.
What this exercise teaches
Searching from the bottom returns the last match, which in an append-only log is the newest one.
A hint if you get stuck
XLOOKUP's 6th argument is the search mode. -1 searches from the last row up.
