Source-of-truth checkpoint

~5 min

Checkpoint · Module 5

Open the Module 5 workbook. Your job is to find every set of duplicate workers and pick the source-of-truth row for each.

Your task

  1. Build the normalizer column (M).
  2. Build the Dup_Count column (N).
  3. Filter to rows where Dup_Count > 1.
  4. For each duplicate set, highlight the source-of-truth row green and the duplicate row red.

Hint

Source of truth is the row with the most non-blank fields. Use COUNTA to count fields per row. Use Conditional Formatting with a custom formula to apply the green and red fills.

You pass when:

Your Dup_Count formula reads:

=COUNTIF($M$2:$M$200, LOWER(TRIM(M2))) > 1

And the cell shows:

  • 14 duplicate pairs flagged.
  • 7 source-of-truth rows in green.
  • 7 duplicate rows in red.
