Count multiple criteria in a row

I have spent hours scrolling through all the great advice in the Community, and there is not a formula that is working for me. I need to count all the Semi-Annual Update, In Progress, and Waiting on County in a column.

=COUNTIF([Status Report]:[Status Report], "Semi-Annual Update") works great to count all of the Semi-Annual Update cells, but I can not figure out to get the total of all cells with Semi-Annual Update, In Progress, and Waiting on County. Below is a screenshot of my sheet:

Thank you in advance.

Hi Shana,

Try this.

=COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport; "Semi-Annual Update") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport; "In Progress") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport; "Waiting on County")

The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.

=COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport, "Semi-Annual Update") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport, "In Progress") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport, "Waiting on County")

Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.

I hope this helps you!

Sadly, neither of these formulas are working for me. I receive #Unparseable error.

Hi Shana,

Try this instead.

=COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport; "Semi-Annual Update") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport; "In Progress") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport; "Waiting on County")

The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.

=COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport, "Semi-Annual Update") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport, "In Progress") + COUNTIFS(StatusReport:StatusReport, "Waiting on County")

Thank you, Andree. I am still getting the same error. I also tried COUNTIF, which did not solve the problem.

Happy to help!

That's weird. Can you share the sheet with me so that I can take a look? (Make a copy of it if there is any sensitive information.

Share it to andree@getdone.se

Andree's formulas should work. Try changing the column names in his formulas from StatusReport to [Status Report]

Thanks, Paul! I missed to change them back.

Sorry about that Shana!

Haha. No worries. I do the same thing.

Shana

Y'all are amazing! Thank you both for your assistance. Here is the final formula that did the trick:

=COUNTIF([Status Report]:[Status Report], "Semi-Annual Update") + COUNTIF([Status Report]:[Status Report], "In Progress") + COUNTIF([Status Report]:[Status Report], "Waiting on County")

Lookup Value Issues
I am trying to populate a column from Sheet A into Sheet B and Sheet C. My Lookup column for Sheet A is formatted as such so there is a ' in front to account for ones that have a leading 0 and some do not. Each ID should be 6 digits long. I made a helper column looking at this Dealer ID column to try and get rid of that…

Index Distinct Support
I would like to parse out this data by creating a listing with a row for each person, for each project they appear on, for each month. I think this would only give me the groupings anyways, but this doesnt seem to even get me started - it popped up then people have disappeared.
