Hey @keesuri25
If you're looking at two different sheets, you'll want to use two separate formulas, then add them together with th + sign.
For example:
=COUNTIFS(formula sheet 1) + COUNTIFS(forumla sheet 2)
I also noticed you have some quotes which are angled, like so: ” instead of ". Smartsheet will need the quotes to be straight up and down: " not ”. Try typing them right into the cell, this will make sure it's the right type of quote!
Here's how I would adjust your formula:
=COUNTIFS([Engagement Phase]:[Engagement Phase], CONTAINS("DIAGNOSTIC (CALL SETUP)", @cell)) + COUNTIFS({DoD Status}, CONTAINS("DIAGNOSTIC (CALL SETUP)", @cell))
