How to autofill data in google sheets based on values in a column - autofill

I have a column with a drop down list of the names of the students.
I want the other columns to read the name of the student written in the column from the drop down list and fill in the ID code of the student and the student address automatically.
I have a master sheet of all the students' names, IDs and addresses.

You can use VLOOKUP functionality of Google spreadsheet, if you are having master data in one sheet and you want to auto fill other based on Id or any field from your dropdown, VLOOKUP is the best solution Link : See documentation

Match date and schedule to find employee working on a certain date - Google Spreadsheet

I have a table with the schedule of the employees
enter image description here
The first column contain the names of the employees, the 3 row contains the date, and the table contains the different positions they work on.
I want to extract the employee working on each particular date at different positions, "Д", "ДК", "1", "Дел1" and so on.

I tried playing around and I managed to get the column number based on the date in the cell next to Date. But I am not able to use the column number inside formulas to do a vertical lookup and find the row number.

How to make a cell Blank when no data is being delivered to it

I have made a sheet to track equipment for the company I work for. I have used a script to populate last edited date to a column when a specific column is populated with data. My issue is that once I remove the data from column "A", the date stays in column "B". Is there some sort of formula or script I can use to make the column blank again once it is not being fed data.
I'm using google sheets.
Thank you.
Kind regards.

MS Word mail merge, multiple columns into rows, dynamic table

im creating a invoice template for mail merge using Word. In my source excel sheet, each row represent different invoice, but each invoice can have one or two items. I want to list this items in dynamic table inside my Word document. So if particular invoice has one item, i want the table to have one row, if the invoice have two items i want the table to have two rows. Columns in my source excel are: InvoiceNumber, Date, InvoiceItem1Value, InvoiceItem2Value. So the last two columns represents my invoice items, if they are both filled, then the table in my output document will have 2 rows, each containing one of the value. If only one column will be filled, then the output table will have only one row with a value from that filled column. Can you tell me how to do that?
What you are seeking is a Many-to-one mail merge. Mail merge wizard by default performs one-to-one mail merge i.e. it creates one document for each row in Excel. In your case if an invoice has two items, it will create two documents.
If you are looking for an online many-to-one mail merge, try EDocGen. If your organization is less rigid with security, you may also try add-ins from Graham Mayor and Doug Robbins. Incidentally, I published a blog for many-to-one mail merge few weeks back with a similar use case.

Transpose columns in another sheet to rows via Data > Validity dropdown

I have a collection of addresses on one LibreOffice Calc sheet (7 columns, 1st name, 2nd street and so one) and want to create an invoice template on another sheet.
I know how to retrieve and transpose a known row - the solution on this other question explains that: Transpose column on one sheet to row on another, with linking
However, this does not seem to work if I use Data > Validity to fill the first cell in the address area (7 cells below each other).
What I am basically trying to accomplish is a dropdown in the first cell where I select the name and it automatically retrieves the address from the other sheet into the cells below.
Is this possible or am I overthinking here?
I suggest:
Name the data in your first column (eg CName)
Name your array of data (eg Clients)
Set the Source for Validity Criteria to CName
Assuming the validation is in A1, in A2 and copied down to suit:
=VLOOKUP(A$1,Clients,ROW()-0,0)
The -0 is not required if the validation is in Row1 but is where an offset should be made if not.
