SUMIFS and CONTAINS

juwilson

This is a very basic formula that has worked for me in the past, but I'm rusty.

I'm trying to sum the number of times a certain term is used in a multi-select field in a different sheet. I know I need to use SUMIFS and CONTAINS, I just don't remember what my @cell reference should be.

=(COUNTIFS({Equity Tool Impacted Equity-Deserving Groups}, CONTAINS, "2SLGBTQ+ Communities", @cell)) - which cell am I referring to?

Thank you, and sorry for the basic question

Hi @juwilson,

Your formula is pretty much there - you're just missing a bracket and have an extra comma. Try this:

=(COUNTIFS({Equity Tool Impacted Equity-Deserving Groups}, CONTAINS("2SLGBTQ+ Communities", @cell))

Hopefully that should fix your error!
