What am I doing wrong - SumIf referencing specific cell

This is my formula =SUMIFS({Time in hours}, {QA}, [Primary Column]@row, {Task}, $[Column3]$8)
It works perfectly in the first cell of the column but when I try to turn it into a column formula I get an error of the syntax isn't quite right. No matter what row in the column my formula is in I want it to reference Column3 cell 8 but want the other references to be flexible.

You cannot have an absolute reference in a column formula. As a work around, create a Sheet Summary formula with the absolute reference call. Then in your column formula build out the formula to refer to the sheet summary.
