b. Transmitter
c. VZ Cell Name
d. Delete the rest
7. Open ELPT file
8. Create VZ Cell name format
a. Channel 5230 doesn’t have last “_” and carrier
9. Switch back to Atoll Cells file
10. Use vlookup to bring in KPIs that you want from ELPT
a. eRab Drop %
b. Peak UE
c. DL Throughput
d. Any other that you need ...
11. Save file as csv format with a different name
