Copy your formula in another cell or save your sheet so that your formula is in recorded in your Activity Log (right hand ribbon) so you can retrieve the first half of your formula later. Remove everything from your formula except the Archive section. You have indicated this is where your problem is. You should be working with this:

=AVG(COLLECT(just the archive ranges and criteria))

The colored formula should show up when you click inside the formula. Match the colored parentheses to make sure you have opening and closing parentheses. Your final parenthesis should be blue (always). Click in each cross sheet reference range (used Edit reference). Verify that the entire column is selected and it is the correct column. It is important to get this Archive section of the formula working before you attempt to add it back to the rest of the formula.

Hey @Katherine Camacho

Try adding a comma before your double-quotes at the end of your formula

Does that work?

Morning @Kelly Moore , It switched it to #incorrect argument

Did you try your AVG formula first without adding your IFERROR to it? One by one, test both of your COLLECTs with the AVG function and without the IFERROR. This will see which of the COLLECTS is throwing the error.

Also, is your formula column a text/number column? Screenshots of your source sheets will be helpful (with no sensitive info)
