Cross-Sheet Reference Limit Has Been Hit

mkilroy

Hello,

I have hit the 100 cross-sheet limit. Up until this point (before releasing there was a limit), I was referencing the same sheet, but by month in a SUMIFS formula. Ive provided some examples below. Is there a way to reference the entire Jan-Dec year, but only sum the specific month you want to sum numbers? Each month is in a different column.

=SUMIFS({CA - PPM Jan 23}, {CA - PPM Department}, Department@row, {CA - PPM Project ID}, [Project ID]@row)

=SUMIFS({CA - PPM Feb 23}, {CA - PPM Department}, Department@row, {CA - PPM Project ID}, [Project ID]@row)

=SUMIFS({CA - PPM Mar 23}, {CA - PPM Department}, Department@row, {CA - PPM Project ID}, [Project ID]@row)

Thank you!

That was supposed to read, "before realizing there was a limit"

That's a shame there is no work-around for this problem, but thank you for taking a look. I have submitted the idea under "Cross-Sheet Reference Enhancement."

Hi, Andree. Do you think there is a way to use SUMIFS and INDEX MATCH formulas for this?

mkilroy

I think I found a solution!

=SUMIFS((INDEX({CA - CDx Dev Timeline}, 0, 1)), {CA - CDx Dev Department}, Department@row, {CA - CDx Dev Project ID}, [Project ID]@row)

Where {CA - CDx Dev Timeline} is the full range of cells (Jan to Dec), so I just need to update which column in the range I want to sum.
