sumifs function combined with NOT

Christine Menke

Hi I try to set up a formula the first part is working. But now I try to exclude the not briefed articles in column (active article check).

What needs to be adjusted that below formula is working?

Thanks

=SUMIFS([shipped quantities in pairs]@row, [Article#]@row, CONTAINS([Article#]@row, @cell, [active article check]@row, NOT(@cell = "not briefed")))

You just have a misplaced closing parenthesis. Try taking the one on the very end and moving to after the first "@cell" so that you close off the CONTAINS function.

Also... I personally find it easier to cut out parenthesis where I can. A lot of times you can use "<>" instead of the NOT function.

=SUMIFS([shipped quantities in pairs]@row, [Article#]@row, CONTAINS([Article#]@row, @cell), [active article check]@row, @cell <> "not briefed")
