How to Track Someone's Past due Task

Bernard MW

Hi, I have tried to write down a formula at the sheet summary that tracks the number of past due tasks assigned to a specific person on my sheet but it is giving a #UNPARSEABLE error below is how I have done it :

=COUNTIFS([Is Past Due?]:[Is Past Due?], "Yes", Status:Status, "In Progress", [Assigned To]:[Assigned To], FIND("Name of Assigned", @cell) > 0)

Below is a screenshot with the structure of my sheet

Try this. (Replace "Name")

=COUNTIFS([Past Due]:[Past Due], "Yes", Status:Status, "In Progress", 
[Assigned To]:[Assigned To], "Name")

Try adding the brackets for Status -

[Status]:[Status]

:)

Hi @Bernard MW

Try something like this.

=COUNTIFS([Is Past Due?]:[Is Past Due?], "Yes", Status:Status, "In Progress", 
[Assigned To]:[Assigned To], "Name of Assigned")

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

I can't see all the column names.

Can you double-check that the column names are correct?

@Andrée Starå thank you so much that one worked perfectly one more problem I have is that I use the above formula to track my past due tasks but it is not giving me the correct number currently my sheet does not have any late task according to my filter below :

You're more than welcome!

Strange!

It works for me.

Can you share a screenshot of the sheet and detail what the formula should do?
