Issues with a crossheet Countif formula
Hi everyone, I'm trying to create a formula to count how many datasets were processed in a month. I've tried the following:
=Countif({Datasets},Month(@cell)=12) and I get an Invalid Data Type Error
=Countif({Datasets},ISDATE(@cell)) returns the total of all datasets processed, so I know it's reading correctly as a date...
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Adam

It is probably because there are empty cells in your range. To compensate for those, you can wrap your MONTH criteria in an IFERROR statement to replace any errors (blank cells) with a number that is not an actual month number. This will give you the ability to essentially ignore any blank cells. Something along the lines of...
=Countif({Datasets},IFERROR(Month(@cell), 0)=12)
If the cell is blank then there is nothing for the MONTH function to look at. That is most likely where your invalid error is coming from.
