I used this formula to set the range, the criteria and then the sum range but it is returning zero. The range is a different column than the sum range. Any advice?
=SUMIF({SSS Range 3}, >"12/31/2017", {SSS Range 3})
Hi Tom,
Even though you've stated the range and sum range are in different columns, it looks like your formula is set to query and sum the same {SSS Range 3} range (which ain't gonna work). Are they definitely different columns/cells?
yes I tried many times and it still has the same range reference in the formula although the linked arrow(s) in the source sheet are different plus if I click to edit the formula it shows a grey box around the correct data. It could be that I can use 2 different columns?
OK, I think I understand what's happening here. I've experienced some oddities with the cross-sheet references refusing to let go of previously specified ranges.
To fix:
Your formula should be
=SUMIF({The range you want to sum}, "the criteria you want to test", {the range you want to test the criteria against})
I'd also suggest avoiding the >"12/31/2017" criteria (can be unpredictable) and possibly look to validate the current year against the against the query range?
Hi all, I am trying to build out a formula that will return "True" if the CIF #@row can be found above it in the same column (CIF #) AND the Days Since Created is between 30 - 365 days. All of the formulas I have tried have only gotten me so far as the "AND". Adding in the dates screws it up. The goal is to determine if…
I am getting a lot of REF errors for my predecessors and I can't figure out why. At first I thought I might have REF for predecessors to predecessors but that's not the case. When I export the file into Excel it shows the IDs in the place where it shows REF in SS. Each time I refresh the file I feel like different values…
I am trying to create a sheet summary, where the field is a formula that relies on a contact card within a column. However, it keeps returning a result of "#NO MATCH". The columns involved are, 1:) Priority (symbol column) for Up, Unchanged, and Down, and 2:) Contact Card column. I am trying to get a sheet summary formula…
