Combining Multiple Formulas

Hello,

Trying to help a co-worker out with combing these formulas into 1. She thinks adding AND is the solution but i was not sure. Here are the formulas broken out below that we need to make into 1 formula.


=COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "Ready for Dev")

=COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "Ready for Release")

=COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "QA")

=COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "UAT Validation")

    Hi,

    Just looking a bit more context but if you are just counting these figures out can you not just leave them as 4 separate formulas and then have a total cell adding these numbers together?

    Why do they need to be in one?

    Yea not sure what result you're looking for but could you just add those countifs together in one formula?

    =COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "Ready for Dev") + COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "Ready for Release") +COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "QA") + COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, @cell = "UAT Validation")

    Hi @tim.curtin

    I hope you're well and safe!

    Try something like this.

    =COUNTIFS({IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 1}, @cell = "Sales Operations", {IPT Consolidated Backlog Range 2}, OR(@cell = "Ready for Dev", @cell = "Ready for Release",@cell = "QA",@cell = "UAT Validation")

    Did that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe, and have a fantastic weekend!
