Hi
I am trying to count the number of items that are for a particular month and year.
eg: I would like to count the number of items submitted for the month of Jan 2018
the column I am wanting to pull the data from is a date column
Hi Kim,
As per the screencap:
Month - dropdown with January, February etc.
Year - dropdown with 2017, 2018 etc. (as per your requirements)
Count - formula: =COUNTIF([Submitted Merged]:[Submitted Merged], [Search Date]1)
Submitted Date: Just a regular date field
Search Date - formula: =IF(Month1 = "January", 1 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "February", 2 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "March", 3 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "April", 4 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "May", 5 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "June", 6 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "July", 7 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "August", 8 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "September", 9 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "October", 10 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "November", 11 + " " + Year1, IF(Month1 = "December", 12 + " " + Year1, ""))))))))))))
Submitted Merged - formula: =IF(LEN([Submitted Date]1) > 0, MONTH([Submitted Date]1) + " " + YEAR([Submitted Date]1), "")
You can then hide the Search Date and Submitted Merged columns when you're satisfied it works OK.
I used Month & Year dropdowns to provide a nicer user experience, but you can simplify the whole thing by just asking the user to pick a date.
Hope this helps.
Hi Chris
Thank you for your help but unfortunately I cannot get the formulas to work. I keep getting an error.
I am sure I am missing a detail but can't seem to identify it.
Count formula shows a blocked error
Search Date formula shows a unparseable error
Submitted Marge formula accepts the formula but shows no results
I have created columns as per your suggestion and added the formulas to the first row of each column

I'm wondering if anyone has worked out a dynamic formula to return the date of the 'next' Thursday of the month. I have a worksheet where I need to send out a reminder to a contacts in a contact column in the worksheet each Thursday of the current month if a criteria has not been met. When criteria has been met, then…
Hello, I have the formula to check a box for line items with the current month. =IF(AND(YEAR(Date@row ) = YEAR(TODAY()), MONTH(Date@row ) = MONTH(TODAY())), 1, 0) Trying to set up a report for all items with the previous month (i.e. 1 month prior to current). How can I modify to check the box?
Please help, I have a few of these to do. I have a nested IF formula. The first part is an INDEX/MATCH and works as a standalone. The next few are INDEX/COLLECT. These are not working as standalone or in the nested version (Unparsable Error). Any ideas? =IF(CONTAINS(“A/V”, [Vendor Type]@row ), INDEX(COLLECT({Date Secured…
