Collect Sums from other sheets
Hi All!
Please let me know if this is possible, and if so, how to do it.
I have two sheets. One is a data collection sheet and one is a budget sheet. The collection sheet will have multiple lines of the same persons name with a subsequent totals in a different column. On my Budget sheet, I would like to collect the SUM of those lines, by person, on the collection sheet, to a cell on a line with their name.
Can this be done?
I hope this makes sense.

If you have more than one criteria, SUMIFS will help:
To do this on the budget sheet using data on the collection sheet you will need to use cross sheet references. If you aren't familiar with those, take a look at:
Hope that helps. If you have any questions, ask away.
