Excluding item on a dropdown when returning sum in smartsheet

Hello beautiful people,

On a second sheet, I need to pull in data from a first sheet.

Some columns on the first sheet contains the following:

- Service Type

- Commodity Category

- Invoice Amount

The Commodity Category column is a drop down of items, which includes "LLIN". I want to get the sum of the Invoice Amount of every other category excluding LLIN on a separate sheet.

Here's what I've tried among other formulas:

=IF(NOT({Commodity Category} = "LLIN"), SUMIFS({Invoice Amount}, {Service Type}, "Last-mile", {Subcontractor}, "Axios Foundation Ltd/Gte (Axi) Distribution"), 0)

=COUNTIFS({Commodity Category}, <> "LLIN", SUMIFS({Invoice Amount}, {Service Type}, "Last-mile", {Subcontractor}, "Axios Foundation Ltd/Gte (Axi) Distribution"))

=SUMIFS({Invoice Amount}, {Service Type}, "Last-mile", {Subcontractor}, "Axios Foundation Ltd/Gte (Axi) Distribution", NOT(CONTAINS("LLIN", {Commodity Category})

    Hi @Samseen

    You were close.

    Try something like this.

    =SUMIFS({Invoice Amount}, {Service Type}, "Last Mile", {Subcontractor}, "Axios Foundation Ltd/Gte (Axi) Distribution", {Commodity Category}, <>"LLIN")

    Did that work?

    I hope that helps!

    Have a fantastic day & Happy New Year!
