Maxing Out Cross Reference Sheet

Hi!

I'm using an Index Match formula to pull info into a roll up sheet:

=SUMIF({AC 2020 Priority Hotels}, "Complete", {AC Jan ITR}) / COUNTIF({AC 2020 Priority Hotels}, "Complete")

However, I'm getting this error message:

The max is around 25K cells which I definitely don't have in my sheets. However, when I cross reference a sheet (AC 2020 Priority Hotels) and choose the column (AC Jan ITR), it's picking every single cell in that column....when I only actually have data in 150 cells.

So, my question is - I'm maxing out the cross sheet references because it's picking every cell in my 60 columns - so how can I just pick certain cells within column and not the entire column?

Thanks!!

Happy to help!

Note sure why!

I'd be happy to take a quick look!

Can you maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s)? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)

Hi Ann,

I think you’ve reached the 100 distinct cross-sheet reference limit.

Could that be it?

More info:

Each sheet can include no more than 100 distinct cross-sheet references.

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic week!

Thanks, Andrée. Perhaps that is the problem - but I'm confused why I was able to complete one set of sheets just fine and without error, yet when I try to replicate the same exact thing on another set of sheets (but with different data), I'm running into this error. Any thoughts? Thanks!!
