if function search in 2 columns
I currently have if functions to count and sum how many wins a rep has however we are now introducing teams into the mix. I was wondering if i could have it sum anything that has either a sales rep name or team name.
the 2 formulas i have now are below with the rep or teams name (dynamic).
can i have it search for either a match in the rep or the team column rather than having to change the formula each time i change it from a rep to team or visa versa?
=SUMIFS([Quote Value Ex GST]:[Quote Value Ex GST], [Sales Rep]:[Sales Rep], =$[M-1]@row, [Won Date]:[Won Date], AND(IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = $[M-1]$17, IFERROR(MONTH(@cell), 0) = $[M-7]$23))
=SUMIFS([Quote Value Ex GST]:[Quote Value Ex GST], [Team]:[Team], =$[M-1]@row, [Won Date]:[Won Date], AND(IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = $[M-1]$17, IFERROR(MONTH(@cell), 0) = $[M-7]$23))

Hi @Sian.G
Will there ever be instances where the same row has both a Sales Rep and a Team that has the value you have in [M-1]@row?
If it will always be either-or, you could simply add the two SUMIFs together:
=SUMIFS([Quote Value Ex GST]:[Quote Value Ex GST], [Sales Rep]:[Sales Rep], =$[M-1]@row, [Won Date]:[Won Date], AND(IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = $[M-1]$17, IFERROR(MONTH(@cell), 0) = $[M-7]$23)) + SUMIFS([Quote Value Ex GST]:[Quote Value Ex GST], [Team]:[Team], =$[M-1]@row, [Won Date]:[Won Date], AND(IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = $[M-1]$17, IFERROR(MONTH(@cell), 0) = $[M-7]$23))
However if there are instances where it's just the Sales, and just the Team, as well as a combination of both on the same row, then we would need to subtract the rows where there's a combination from the equation above.
This is the structure of the formula:
=(SUMIFS(Sales Rep) + SUMIFS(Team)) - SUMIFS(Sales Rep AND Team same row)
Try:
=(SUMIFS([Quote Value Ex GST]:[Quote Value Ex GST], [Sales Rep]:[Sales Rep], =$[M-1]@row, [Won Date]:[Won Date], AND(IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = $[M-1]$17, IFERROR(MONTH(@cell), 0) = $[M-7]$23)) + SUMIFS([Quote Value Ex GST]:[Quote Value Ex GST], [Team]:[Team], =$[M-1]@row, [Won Date]:[Won Date], AND(IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = $[M-1]$17, IFERROR(MONTH(@cell), 0) = $[M-7]$23))) - SUMIFS([Quote Value Ex GST]:[Quote Value Ex GST], [Sales Rep]:[Sales Rep], =$[M-1]@row, [Team]:[Team], =$[M-1]@row, [Won Date]:[Won Date], AND(IFERROR(YEAR(@cell), 0) = $[M-1]$17, IFERROR(MONTH(@cell), 0) = $[M-7]$23))
Let me know if I've understood what it is you're looking to do and if this works for you!
Cheers,
Genevieve
