Carryover without overwriting?

$

I have the following situation and am not sure how to set up such a structure, maybe someone has an idea on that:

  • A total of 20 different gsheets

  • 1-5: Tables in which information is entered

  • 6-20: Tables, where the entered information from 1-5 should also appear.

  • Process is, if in column A (Tab. 1-5) is a certain value (take "AX123") then the contents in the row next to AX123 should be transferred to another table with name AX123 (Tab. 6-20).

  • respectively, if column A contains XY678, then the contents are to be entered accordingly in table XY678.

  • 1-5 have no connection to each other, 6-20 not either.

  • In 6-20 the output fields are the same, no matter if information is taken from input table 1,2,...5 --> Here I see the problem that information could be overwritten.

  • Is there a way to map the case and include a function that sorts a new entry in an input table directly into the last row of the desired output table, without overwriting other rows that have already been filled in?

  • As far as I know, you can't currently use macros across files, so presumably that means this option is dropped?

I have no programming skills whatsoever, which also rather rules out a code solution.

I would be very pleased about an answer and say many thanks in advance. Hopefully my problem description is not too cryptic.
