Formula not working - correctly

I tried applying a formula, but the results aren’t coming out correctly. For example, the headset count is showing as 6, whereas there are actually only 3 headsets.
I suspect the issue is due to multiple items being listed in a single cell (e.g., "Headset, Keyboard"). Could someone please confirm if the formula supports multi-select values within a cell, or suggest an alternative approach?
Appreciate your help!

Hi
Your current COUNTIFS will only count rows where the value in Range 6 matches exactly that in the primary column.
If you use the HAS function, you can count the rows where the value of the primary column is one of the multi selected options.
Replace
[Primary Column}@cell
With
HAS(@cell, [Primary Column}@cell)
