the NOT function

I am having trouble with the below formula, I want to exclude the "Unplanned"

=SUMIFS({Education 2021 Range 3}, {Education 2021 Range 1}, NOT(CONTAINS("Unplanned", @cell)), {Education 2021 Range 4}, "(Stage 3) 3.1 - RFP Submitted", {Education 2021 Range 2}, MONTH(@cell) = 1))

2 things:

Looks like you have an extra parentheses at the end of your formula.
The NOT CONTAINS should work as described. But if you are trying to exclude a cell with a specific value, you can type: @cell<>"Unplanned"

Your formula should be working. Are you getting an error or an incorrect result?

@Paul Newcome I am getting this error #UNPARSEABLE

Formula

=SUMIFS({Education 2021 Range 3}, {Education 2021 Range 1}, NOT(CONTAINS(("Sole", @cell)), {Education 2021 Range 4}, "(Stage 3) 3.1 - RFP Submitted", {Education 2021 Range 2}, MONTH(@cell) = 1))

The problem with this most recent formula is an extra opening parenthesis after the CONTAINS function that needs removed which also put in an extra closing parenthesis at the end of the formula that also needs removed.

@Paul Newcome Thank you that works, funny how you look at enough and it all blends. and you cant really see the details.

No worries. I know the feeling.
