I was wandering if its possible to auto fill a cell from another. For example I have a list of business names in cell 1 and need it to be a specific payment term in cell 2. Cell 2 has a drop down box option, however is it possible this cell automatically fills to the correct one by the business name put in cell 1?

Hi Emily
Re, "... Cell 2 has a drop-down box option, however, is it possible this cell automatically fills to the correct one by the business name put in cell 1?"
I would suggest using the VLOOKUP() function, but this will require eliminating the drop-down list in Cell 2 since we can not simultaneously have a Formula and a Data Validation dropdown list in a cell.
So, I'm afraid, we might only achieve that using a VBA code, plus some additional table creations
Do let us know which way you want to go, so we can work on the solution.
