COUNTIFS with Jira links and Status

Silvia Frei

Hello,

I am looking to count the number of open tasks from a smartsheet workflow from JIRA.

I have JIRA links marked 'ITV'= the reference from JIRA (for example ITV-123) and others using TPM-and the JIRA reference. In addition, I want to count all statuses marked as Open, In progress, etc,..

I am trying this formula but doesn't work

=COUNTIFS(JIRA:JIRA, CONTAINS(@cell"ITV"), Status:Status, "In Progress", "Open"))

Any suggestions?

Try this...

=COUNTIFS(JIRA:JIRA, CONTAINS("ITV", @cell), Status:Status, OR(@cell = "In Progress", @cell = "Open"))

I have added an extra line to show the calculation working.

Hope this helps.

You have your order flipped around backwards in your CONTAINS function.

You have:

CONTAINS(@cell, "ITV")

It should be:

CONTAINS("ITV", @cell)

Guys, could you help again please? In the same sheet as above, I am looking to count tasks by priority. This formula shows 0 items even though I have tasks that match the criteria, any idea why?

=COUNTIFS(JIRA:JIRA, CONTAINS(@cell, "ITV"), Priority:Priority, "P3 - Normal")
