Date Range Formula Help

Options

Can someone please help me to create a formula that returns the number of items with a "Permit Expiration Date" between 7/1/20 and 7/31/20 AND has the "360 Photos Have Been Submitted" unchecked? I've tried several "if and" formulas and they didn't work :(


Thank you!!

    Sorry. Try this:

    =COUNTIFS([360 Photos Have Been Submitted]:[360 Photos Have Been Submitted], 0, [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expiration Date], < DATE(2020, 7, 31), [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expiration Date],

    Hi @Justin Tackitt ,

    You need to use a COUNTIFS function. The syntax is: COUNTIFS( range1, criterion1,[ range2, ​criterion2​... ])

    Your formula would be:

    =COUNTIFS([360 Photos Have Been Submitted]:[360 Photos Have Been Submitted], 1, [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expriation Date], < 7/31/20, [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expriation Date], >7/1/20)

    Work?

    I am getting an invalid operation error :(


    =COUNTIFS([360 Photos Have Been Submitted]:[360 Photos Have Been Submitted], 0, [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expiration Date], <7 / 31 / 20, [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expiration Date], >7 / 1 / 20)

    Oh don't be sorry, I'm thankful for the help!!

    Your formula was missing the second date range so I added the following to the end of your formula:

    >DATE(2020, 7, 1))


    It returned a number, but not the correct number. It is counting all items between those date ranges, it's not taking into consideration whether or not the box is checked.

    I feel dumb now. I was counting the non checked boxes. It works now!

    Thank you very much for your help!!!!

    Very much appreciated!

    On more try. Almost there.

    =COUNTIFS([360 Photos Have Been Submitted]:[360 Photos Have Been Submitted], =1, [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expiration Date], < DATE(2020, 7, 31), [Permit Expiration Date]:[Permit Expiration Date],>DATE(2020, 7, 1))
