Help with formulas to have data in the Summary Sheet

Hey Paul,

I have created the below individual reports for the upcoming tasks in the Smartsheet. This has a combination of Tasks + Country + Owners + Status.

However, I also need this data in the Dashboard.

Could you please help me with formulas to have this data in the Summary Sheet? So that I can pull the data from the summary sheet to create "Metric" or "Chart" widgets in my Dashboards.

  1. Upcoming Tasks for Crawford | USA
  2. Upcoming Tasks for Crawford | CAN
  3. Upcoming Tasks for Crawford | UK
  4. Upcoming Tasks for Crawford | GBSC


  1. Upcoming Tasks for SmartERP | USA
  2. Upcoming Tasks for SmartERP | CAN
  3. Upcoming Tasks for SmartERP | UK
  4. Upcoming Tasks for SmartERP | GBSC

See below the columns in use:


Your help with this will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a ton!

    Hi @Pooja Shengali , if I understand your use case, you're looking to add some formulas into your sheet summary to pull into your Dashboard. Is this accurate? If so, I think the following COUNTIFS formula should work well for you.

    =COUNTIFS(Country:Country, "USA", [SmartERP Owners]:[SmartERP Owners], <>"")

    Let me know if this helps. Thanks!

  • One last help please..

    =COUNTIFS(Country:Country, "USA", [SmartERP Owners]:[SmartERP Owners], <>"")

    The above formula gives "All Statuses" count however I need ONLY "In Progress" & "Not Started" in the Summary Sheet for the Upcoming Tasks for SmartERP | USA..

    Try this, @Pooja Shengali.

    =COUNTIFS(Country:Country, "USA", [SmartERP Owners]:[SmartERP Owners], <>"", Status:Status, "Not Started") + COUNTIFS(Country:Country, "USA", [SmartERP Owners]:[SmartERP Owners], <>"", Status:Status, "In Progress")

    Or

    =COUNTIFS(Country:Country, "USA", [SmartERP Owners]:[SmartERP Owners], <>"", Status:Status, <>"Complete")
