using COUNTIFS with contains

Hello,

I'm trying to count the number of rows where deployment complete or cancelled is not checked, where Deployment Type is "New Deployment" and Deployment Tier is either "Plus" or "Plus Unlimited." The formula I'm using is getting an Invalid Operation error.

=COUNTIFS({Deployment Complete}, "0", {Deployment Queue Project Cancelled}, "0", {Deployment Type}, "New Deployment", {Deployment Tier}, CONTAINS("Plus"))

Thanks for your help!

Hi @deb_63_hydracor

I hope you're well and safe!

At a glance, I see two errors (surrounding numbers with "").

Try something like this.

=
COUNTIFS({Deployment Complete}, 0, 
{Deployment Queue Project Cancelled}, 0, 
{Deployment Type}, "New Deployment", {Deployment Tier}, CONTAINS("Plus"))

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Thanks for such a quick response!

I'm still getting an Invalid Operation error using this formula:

=COUNTIFS({Deployment Complete}, 0, {Deployment Queue Project Cancelled}, 0, {Deployment Type}, "New Deployment", {Deployment Tier}, CONTAINS("Plus"))

See below proper syntax for using the CONTAINS function in such a situation.

=COUNTIFS({Deployment Complete}, 0, {Deployment Queue Project Cancelled}, 0, {Deployment Type}, "New Deployment", {Deployment Tier}, CONTAINS("Plus", @cell))

Hello again,

The above formula worked perfectly everywhere on my dashboard except for one. Here, I'm trying to count all rows with sales type of Package Upgrade, Sales Tier contains Plus, Sales & Leads box is checked, Sales Lead Complete box is unchecked and Sales Status does not equal.... The formula worked before I added the CONTAINS portion.

=COUNTIFS({Sales Type}, "Package Upgrade", {Sales Tier},CONTAINS("Plus",@cell), {Sales & Leads}, "1", {Sales Lead Complete}, 0, {Sales Status}, <>"Prospect", {Sales Status}, <>"Hold for Clarification", {Sales Status}, <>"Hold for Future Follow-up"))

Thank you!

Your formula may have worked previously but does not match your description:.

If you want to count those where Sales & Leads box is checked, the syntax should be {Sales & Leads}, 1 (no quote marks around the 1)

What is wrong with this formula - I'm getting an "Incorrect argument Set" error message:

=COUNTIFS({CRP-Tracking-Sheet Project}, [C1]40, {CRP-Tracking-Sheet Type}, "E2E", {CRP-Tracking-Sheet Level}, >0, CONTAINS("COM", {CRP-Tracking Sheet UseCaseOwner}))

Thanks!

Try the below:

=COUNTIFS({CRP-Tracking-Sheet Project}, @cell=[C1]40, {CRP-Tracking-Sheet Type}, @cell="E2E", {CRP-Tracking-Sheet Level}, @cell>0, {CRP-Tracking Sheet UseCaseOwner},CONTAINS("COM", @cell))

Thanks Leibel.

Kind of confusing because the CONTAINS syntax seems reversed😎

Thanks all the same!
