I’m looking for a way to take out very specific information from one spreadsheet to another.

I’ve got a file of products that I sell. The file comes directly from the wholesaler and I keep track of it all using *their* sku numbers. But one of the third-party selling sites I use only lets me list 500 items. Once I remove the other categories of things I don’t even work with, I’ve got over 2,500 items in the wholesale list. (Their initial list is over 9,000 products.)

I have an Excel file that I use specifically for that site with the 500 items listed. The wholesaler file also comes in Excel format. I want to be able to “update” the quantities on the 500 items that I listed, using the larger file from the wholesaler (they send it to me daily). But the wholesaler also doesn’t keep the same order for their list, so I can’t go by line number.

Is there a way I can have one sheet update from another one by searching and matching the SKU number?
