Allocation of tasks to Analysts

Hi,

 

I have two data sets; 1. Name and shift. 2. Task id and type.

I want to assign the names from 1st data set to the task id in 2nd data set. Names should be assigned to tasks in similar way how Playing cards are dealt. i.e. if there are 5 names and 7 tasks available, task 1 to be assigned to A,  task 2 to be assigned to B,  task 3 to be assigned to C,  task 4 to be assigned to D,  task 5 to be assigned to E, task 6 will be assigned to A and finally task 7 will be assigned to B. When the next allocation is being done, the new task should be assigned from C and not from A.

 

Input 1:

NameShift
AAPAC
BEMEA
CLate EMEA
DAPAC
EEMEA
 

Input 2:

Task idTask Type
XX1Main
XX2Create
XX3Create
XX4Create
XX5Main
XX6Main
XX7Main

 

Output:

First Allocation:

Task idName
XX1A
XX2B
XX3C
XX4D
XX5E
XX6A
XX7B

 

Output:

Second allocation:

Task idName
XX9C
XX10D
XX8E
XX11A
XX55B
XX68C
XX78D
