COUNTIFS & CONTAINS (cross sheets)

CatherinePaine

Trying to count following:

Any row on reference sheet in the YEAR column that is equal to "2025", CONTENT TYPE ="US" (dropdown column, single select), TEAM = "EU4" (dropdown column, single select), CRITERIA column contains "Pan-EU" (dropdown column). I have tried everything and works fine until I use Contains. I get #UNPARSEABLE error. All cross sheet references. Why won't this work?!

=COUNTIFS({Content Type}, "US Original TV", {Year}, "2025", {Team}, "EU4", {Campaign Criteria},(CONTAINS ("Pan-EU",@cell)))

You don't need the parenthesis around the entire function, and you have a space between the function and its opening parenthesis.

…{Campaign Criteria},CONTAINS("Pan-EU",@cell))
