Check Box Across Sheets

Hi,
I have two sheets, one is an intake sheet and the other is a metrics sheet.

Metrics Sheet

Plan has an OR(ISDATE( Formula to raise flag is a date is entered

Agents has an IFERROR(INDEX(DISTINCT formula to capture the agents from the Intake Sheet

Intake Sheet

I want to add a Formula that can Raise a Flag under the PLAN for the Intake sheet based on a flag being raised on the Metrics Plan sheet and based on the Employee Name/Agents.

The Goal:

Basically, this is an occurrence tracker, It will collect events up to a year, and after 365 days, the row gets moved to a trash sheet. However, if the Employee meets a certain criteria of too many occurrences, they get placed on a plan. At that point I want the sheet to stop removing Dates for that employee even after the year is up.

The only way I can think of achieving that is by getting the plan on the metrics to align with the plan column of the entries for each person.

Thank you,

    From the metrics sheet add to your formula with something like IF({Plan} = 1, 1…note that a checked checkbox is equal to 1, unchecked is 0. Will that work?

    I tried this before and always got the Invalid operation.

    What I really would love, is something like this:

    =IF(AND(HAS({Agents}, [Employee Name]@row), {Plan} = "True"), 1, 0)

    Thank you,

    I figured it out,

    I ended up doing a IF(COUNTIFS Formula and it worked!
