COUNTIFS Formula with multiple criteria including a checkbox

Hello,

I tried multiple formulas and can't seem to figure out to do a count that includes a report code (e.g., OWCA1) and a checkbox. Here is what I have so far:

=COUNTIFS({UHG Risk Control Matrix Range 2}, CONTAINS("OWCA1", @cell), {UHG Risk Control Matrix Range 1}, CONTAINS("1", @cell))

Thank you for any help!!

    To count the checkbox you wouldn't use "CONTAINS" you would just use 1.

    So it should be

    =COUNTIFS({UHG Risk Control Matrix Range 2}, CONTAINS("OWCA1", @cell), {UHG Risk Control Matrix Range 1}, 1)

    *Assuming the {UHG Risk Control Matrix Range 1} is the checkbox column*
