COUNTIF Formula Help

I'm not sure if I'm making this more complicated than I need to...


I'm trying to build a COUNTIF formula that accounts for 2 unique values in User Satisfaction column and can have anywhere from 4 -17 unique values in Team Name.

=COUNTIFS({User Satisfaction}, "4. Very Satisfied", {Month Survey Sent}, [Column3]@row, {Year Survey Sent}, $[Column2]$2, {Team Name} OR(@cell = "Team 1", @cell = "Team 2", @cell = "Team 3", @cell = "Team 5", @cell = "Team 6", @cell = "Team 7", @cell = "Team 8", @cell = "Team 9", @cell = "Team 10")) + COUNTIFS({User Satisfaction}, "5. Extremely Satisfied", {Month Survey Sent}, [Column3]@row, {Year Survey Sent}, $[Column2]$2, {Team Name} OR(@cell = "Team 1", @cell = "Team 2", @cell = "Team 3", @cell = "Team 5", @cell = "Team 6", @cell = "Team 7", @cell = "Team 8", @cell = "Team 9", @cell = "Team 10"))


The above is returning #unparseable.


More info:

  • Each team name rolls up into larger group
  • User Satisfaction has 5 values:
    • 1. Not Satisfied
    • 2. Slightly Satisfied
    • 3. Satisfied
    • 4. Very Satisfied
    • 5. Extremely Satisfied

    @jlheaney I'm not quite sure what output you want! Is it a report that counts satisfaction levels?

    My default approach is a metrics sheet that becomes a grid. Every cell in that grid is a count that checks two conditions to get a result. In your case, columns are probably User Satisfaction values. Rows are team names. I would add another column for month, but you will need to repeat the block of rows to get results for each team for each month.

    That sheet could use COUNTIFS to get data from your datasheet.

    Is that enough to get started? I can show how to use cross-sheet ranges if you need.
