Countifs with multiple crieteria in same range

Hi

I need to provide a report on the number of declines and tentative responses as one number to training invitations.

I have been able to set up a cross sheet formula that counts the number of acceptances but am struggling with the combined declines & tentative count.

Here is the formula that I'm using, the below formula works when only using one criteria in the response column (ie: just having the 'decline' option'):

'=COUNTIFS({Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 5}, "Training Session", {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 2}, "Declined", {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 2}, "Tentative", {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 3}, >=DATE(2023, 3, 13), {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 3}, <DATE(2023, 3, 10), {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 4}, "Organisation")

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Michelle

    Hi @Michelle McN

    To count both "Declined" and "Tentative" responses, you can modify your formula to use the OR function in the criteria for the response column. Here's an example of how you can update the formula:

    =COUNTIFS({Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 5}, "Training Session", OR({Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 2} = "Declined", {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 2} = "Tentative"), {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 3}, >=DATE(2023, 3, 13), {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 3}, <DATE(2023, 3, 10), {Training Sessions Registration and RSVPs Range 4}, "Organisation")

    This will count the number of rows where the session is a "Training Session", and the response is either "Declined" or "Tentative", and the date is between March 10 and March 13, and the organization is "Organisation".
