I am using this simple formula in a new field in Sheet Summary & I keep getting an "Unparseable" Error.
=COUNTIF(RESPONSIBLE ENTITY:RESPONSIBLE ENTITY, "FIRM")
You need square brackets [ ] around each of your column names.
[RESPONSIBLE ENTITY]:[RESPONSIBLE ENTITY]
Hi Donni,
When you have columns with numbers or multiple words you have to use Square Brackets.
Try this.
=COUNTIF([RESPONSIBLE ENTITY]:[RESPONSIBLE ENTITY], "FIRM")
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!

Thank you for explaining when the brackets are needed. I couldn't figure out when/why they were required. Much appreciated.
They are needed when you have a number, space, or special character in the column name. I am pretty sure that covers all of the reasons why you would need square brackets.
Happy to help!
I always forget about the special characters
I'm using the following formula but I keep on getting #UNPARSEABLE
=COUNTIFS({GP TRACKER INTAKE DATE} , IFERROR((@cell),0) > DATE(2019,6,30),({GP TRACKER STATUS}, IFERROR((@cell),0) = "FUTURE PROJECT"))
Try
=IFERROR(COUNTIFS({GP TRACKER INTAKE DATE} , > DATE(2019,6,30),{GP TRACKER STATUS},"FUTURE PROJECT"),0)
I'm assuming you want 0 if there is an error, based on your IFERROR((@cell),0)
@Javier Salar
To correct your original formula, it is just a matter of extra parenthesis being tucked in there.
=COUNTIFS({GP TRACKER INTAKE DATE}, IFERROR(@cell), 0) > DATE(2019, 6, 30) ,{GP TRACKER STATUS}, IFERROR(@cell), 0) = "FUTURE PROJECT")
Hi all. My team is currently using a sheet to track tasks and hours spent on each task, for each week of the month. There are 4 different types of tasks (Project, Initiative, Ad Hoc, Daily Task), and some of out project managers work on the same project or initiative.

I have a collection of sheets (10-12) that all have projects in various stages that need a status review/update. This is a temporary process and I need to be able to assign each project to an employee, but these sheets don’t have an assignment column already built in them. Is there a way to set up an assignment system…
Okay, so I have been working this problem for a few days and it's officially making me crazy. Here's the problem statement: I have 3 intake sheets for different business units. Each has an Auto-Number column that has a prefix for the BU. I need to consolidate all of the attachments from those 3 sheets into 1 sheet. So on…
