Wondering if you plan to add to conditions for this.

Essentially this is index match in excel

To be clear.
Column 1 = customer
Column 2 = category
Column 3 = hourly rate (which varies based on column 1 abs 2 combined)

Seems you have the making of this but need to add into the view the ability to to search based on more than one parameter.

any timeline on that @Nir-Jetpack
BTW bit of feedback seems to not always update when adding a new line, I have to type something in the linked column to trigger it
Aprt from that seems to work well and when you have the multi condition links I will look to integrate properly into our workflow

Hi @Nir-Jetpack I just installed it but it doesn’t seem to update. Any known issues ongoing for the moment? Contact me directly if you want me to send you a screen recording.

Also, any plans to support a “connect board” column as a target column? This would be really useful for the workflow for one of my customers, so when a new item is created or a unique identifier it contains is updated, the link to the correct item in the parent board is automatically filled thus linking other data.

@Nir-Jetpack HI! i want to pay for one month, but when i go to your website it says Error establishing a database connection.

lmk when you have fixed it please

@Yu1992 sorry. missed this message. this was resolved long time ago. pleas elet me know if there is anything else we can do to help.

@Nir-Jetpack

we noticed an error while using the vlookup function (we are using it for inventory keeping) .

Once the link was made between two items in two different boards, we realized that when a sale was eliminated, the link wasnt and the stock was still being affected by a sale that was no longer existent.

The only way to delete it was to search for that specific sale and deselect it.

Please let us know if you’ve encountered this error.

Hi. If this issue persists, can you do a loom video and share using our support form?

@Nir-Jetpack This looks great, it could solve the problem I’ve been banging my head against for the last hour. But in case it’s useful feedback at this point I don’t feel I can justify the expense - for our little company we’d be spending more on this app than we spend for our main Monday.com subscription. I know it’s tricky, because for a large company with lots of users this might be a small expense, but I can’t see a way for you to differentiate.

The app doesn’t support Files column that contain files over 10 MB. This is a huge deal for us. Is this going to be fixed?

@Nir-Jetpack

Please can you assist. Im using the Vlookup function and its inconsistent - sometimes it automatically returns the correct value - and sometimes it just does not automate and the I have to go into VLOOKUP and click activate on existing items. Why does it not automate all the time - this is from Form Submissions

Hi @Patswaz please use this form to create a support ticket and we’ll do anything to help ASAP

This is a good app, but at $45/month, it is way overpriced in my opinion.

Hi @bysam thank you for your feedback. We do have discounts for startsups and NGOs. You can send a private message if you want to hear more.
