    Hi @Nyasha Samaneka

    sorry for the delay, please find in the following the solution,

    1- I created two sheets first one is the "Master Readiness Roster" sheet which contains your database and selection the following is a screenshot.

    2- The second sheet is the summary sheet which we will use it to count the number of cleared & uncleared counting the following is a screenshot.


    Now the formula you will use is:

    A- to count Cleared number ( Checked ) =COUNTIFS({Master Readiness Roster Range 1}, Master@row, {Master Readiness Roster Range 2}, true). and convert it to column formula.

    B- to count Uncleared number ( Unchecked ) =COUNTIFS({Master Readiness Roster Range 1}, Master@row, {Master Readiness Roster Range 2}, false)

    C- To Count the total number ( Checked & Unchecked ) =COUNTM({Master Readiness Roster Range 1})

    3- then you can create a chart in your Dashboard using the summary sheet table

  • Here is the the formula im using for the cleared (checked boxes): =COUNTIFS({Master Readiness Roster Range 3}, @cell = [Primary Column]@row, {Master Readiness Roster Range 1}, @cell = ("(Checkbox Onboarding & Payroll Cleared by SS), =true"))

    is this one for the uncleared (unchecked): =COUNTIFS({Master Readiness Roster Range 3}, @cell = [Primary Column]@row, {Master Readiness Roster Range 1}, @cell = ("(Checkbox Onboarding & Payroll Cleared by SS), =false"))

    its not showing an error but all I get is zero
