How to separate column into two separate columns by condition App Script - google-apps-script

Question

I am trying to take the Data in the scan it columns and conditionally filter it into the commercial or manufacturing sheet.
I tried writing a formula as an if function basically saying if it equals "Company" put it in manufacturing column, if not(if the rest) then put into commercial column.
I tried coding it backend in app script, but had an issue grabbing the last row from scan it and correctly adding the item #, vendor, and quantity into the last row of either Commercial or Manufactured.
The scan it section is an importrange function so more data will be entered into it once the code is working correctly.
I ran into dead ends with both. This is obviously an advanced code and I only did a little bit of coding in college. Below is a script that I had been messing with trying to get it to filter the data properly, but I couldn't get it to run. Any help would be appreciated!
function myFunction() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Sheet1')
//Get last rows for MFG
var mfgvalues = sheet.getRange(3, 5, sheet.getLastRow()).getValues();
//var mfglast = mfgvalues.filter(String).length;
//Get last rows for Comm
var commvalues = sheet.getRange(3, 1, sheet.getLastRow()).getValues();
//var commlast = commvalues.filter(String).length;
//Get last rows for Scann
var scanvalues = sheet.getRange(2, 12, sheet.getLastRow()).getValues();
//var scanlast = scanvalues.filter(String).length;
//Filter Accordingly
if (scanvalues == "IMMCO") {
var scanrange = sheet.getRange("L2:N").getLastRow().getValues();
//var scanlastrow = scanrange.getLastRow().getValues();
var mfgrow = sheet.getRange("E3:G").getLastRow();
scanlastrow.copyTo(mfgrow)
} else {
var scanrange = sheet.getRange("L:N").getLastRow.getValues();
//var scanlastrow = scanrange.getLastRow().getValues();
var commrow = sheets.getRange("A3:C").getLastrow()
scanlastrow.copyTo(commrow)
}
}

Answer 1

Option1:
Using FILTER() to filter your data set if vendor name is equal to "COMPANY" as mentioned in your description
Formula in Cell A3:
=filter(L3:N,LEN(L3:L)>0,UPPER(M3:M)<>"COMPANY")
Formula in Cell E3:
=filter(L3:N,LEN(L3:L)>0,UPPER(M3:M)="COMPANY")
Output:
Option2:
Using apps script to filter your data set.
Sample Code:
function filter(){
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Sheet1');
//Get item count for Scann
var scanCnt = sheet.getRange('L3:L').getValues().flat().filter(String).length;
Logger.log(scanCnt);
//Get last rows for Comm
var commLastRow = sheet.getRange('A1:A').getValues().flat().filter(String).length;
Logger.log(commLastRow);
//Get last rows for MFG
var mfgLastRow = sheet.getRange('E1:E').getValues().flat().filter(String).length;
Logger.log(mfgLastRow);
//Get Scann data if item count is not zero
if(scanCnt){
var commItem = [];
var mfgItem = [];
var dataRange = sheet.getRange(3,12,scanCnt,3);
var data = dataRange.getDisplayValues();
//Loop all scann data and separate mfg with comm
Logger.log(data.length)
data.forEach(item => {
Logger.log(item);
if(item[1].toUpperCase() == "COMPANY"){
mfgItem.push(item);
}else{
commItem.push(item);
}
});
Logger.log(mfgItem);
Logger.log(commItem);
//Append comm items
sheet.getRange(commLastRow+1,1,commItem.length,commItem[0].length).setValues(commItem);
//Append mfg items
sheet.getRange(mfgLastRow+1,5,mfgItem.length,mfgItem[0].length).setValues(mfgItem);
//Optional: Clear content of scann column
dataRange.clearContent();
}
}
What it does?
Get the item count to filter in Scan it column by selecting the range L3:L. Get its value. Change 2-d array to 1-d array using array.flat(). Use array.filter() to remove empty values. Then get its length
Get the last row of Commercial(ColumnA) and Manufactured(ColumnE) column.
If item count obtained in step1 is not zero. Then get the data range and its value
Loop all data value (by row) one-by-one. Check if vendor index is equal to "COMPANY" then add it to mfgItem array. Else, add it to commItem array
Append mfgItem and commItem under Manufactured Column and Commercial Column
(Optional) Clear the data under Scan-it Column
Note:
You can check the execution log to further understand the procedure done. I included some debug logs in the sample code.
