Calculating a Total Occurring within a Specific Month (SUMIF)

Paula Meunier

Hello,

I am working off the provided personal car mileage tracker to create a monthly total for an employee. I am creating a sheet summary formula. My formula isn't giving me an error but it isn't calculating either! I've tried it with and without the parent/child indentation and same result.

I want to calculate the total miles driven within a specific month. The example used here is March. I don't need it specific to a certain year, because I plan to archive the data and re-use the same template for 2024.

Here's what I have: =SUMIF(Date:Date, MONTH(Date:Date) = 3, [Total Miles]:[Total Miles])

You need an @cell reference for the MONTH function like so:

=SUMIF(Date:Date, MONTH(@cell) = 3, [Total Miles]:[Total Miles])
