#UNPARSEABLE error
Can anyone help identify the problem here? It is a simple formula to sum the numbers if 2 conditions are met and works perfectly in excel but Smartsheet keeps giving this error.
=SUMIFS({DHR Team Time off Planner 2023 Range 1}, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2023}, [DHR Team Member]@row, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2023 Range 3},"vacation"}})
Could it be because the name match is a drop down string value?

Hi @Kash
I hope you're well and safe!
Try something like this.
=SUMIFS({DHR Team Time off Planner 2023 Range 1}, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2023}, [DHR Team Member]@row, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2023 Range 3},"vacation"
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Hi Andrée,
Thank you I am very well and happy since I have been at it for a few hours and it worked :D
Can't believe it was just the parenthesis issue, excel would usually just remove extras but here as well I did try a few combinations. Anyway, thanks it works perfectly now!
Hope you are staying well and safe during today's snow storm as well.

Excellent!
Happy to help!
I'm well and happy too, but no snow here.

Another year and still stuck with the same issue when creating a new sheet for the year. Anyone has a solution?
=SUMIFS({DHR Team Time off Planner 2024 Range 6}, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2024}, (Employee Name) @row, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2024 Range 2}, "vacation"

Hey @Kash
When you're referencing a column name in a current sheet, you'll need to use [square] brackets. Try this:
=SUMIFS({DHR Team Time off Planner 2024 Range 6}, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2024}, [Employee Name]@row, {DHR Team Time off Planner 2024 Range 2}, "vacation")
Cheers,
Genevieve
