It could be the way your have referenced the range to look in. Swap out the second range reference to @cell
=COUNTIF({Customer Inquiries & Requirements - Impact Range 1}, HAS(@cell, [Primary Column]@row))
Or, if the topics are not multi-select, you should use CONTAINS rather then HAS (also using @cell)
=COUNTIF({Customer Inquiries & Requirements - Impact Range 1}, CONTAINS([Primary Column]@row, @cell))
CONTAINS will look in a string for a match. HAS will only look for a complete match.
