I am using this simple formula in a new field in Sheet Summary & I keep getting an "Unparseable" Error.
=COUNTIF(RESPONSIBLE ENTITY:RESPONSIBLE ENTITY, "FIRM")
You need square brackets [ ] around each of your column names.
[RESPONSIBLE ENTITY]:[RESPONSIBLE ENTITY]
Hi Donni,
When you have columns with numbers or multiple words you have to use Square Brackets.
Try this.
=COUNTIF([RESPONSIBLE ENTITY]:[RESPONSIBLE ENTITY], "FIRM")
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!

Thank you for explaining when the brackets are needed. I couldn't figure out when/why they were required. Much appreciated.
They are needed when you have a number, space, or special character in the column name. I am pretty sure that covers all of the reasons why you would need square brackets.
Happy to help!
I always forget about the special characters
I'm using the following formula but I keep on getting #UNPARSEABLE
=COUNTIFS({GP TRACKER INTAKE DATE} , IFERROR((@cell),0) > DATE(2019,6,30),({GP TRACKER STATUS}, IFERROR((@cell),0) = "FUTURE PROJECT"))
Try
=IFERROR(COUNTIFS({GP TRACKER INTAKE DATE} , > DATE(2019,6,30),{GP TRACKER STATUS},"FUTURE PROJECT"),0)
I'm assuming you want 0 if there is an error, based on your IFERROR((@cell),0)
@Javier Salar
To correct your original formula, it is just a matter of extra parenthesis being tucked in there.
=COUNTIFS({GP TRACKER INTAKE DATE}, IFERROR(@cell), 0) > DATE(2019, 6, 30) ,{GP TRACKER STATUS}, IFERROR(@cell), 0) = "FUTURE PROJECT")
Hi All, I have a project plan with a column called "Owner" that has a column type of contact list. The contacts are from multiple companies. It's a large project plan. I have created columns that have a column type of checkbox. I want to check the box if the owner is from a certain company (which can be determined by the…
Hello, I am trying to use JOIN-COLLECT to populate a cell with a contact by pulling from another sheet. However, when I use this formula it populates the cell with the name of the contact as a text string, but does not populate the cell with the contact itself. Both the column of cells being populated and the column the…
Hello Community, I need to create a report that shows capacity by month. My sheet tracks resource allocation on projects with resource start and end dates. (We can't afford the Resource Management module so we're doing it in Core SS). I've been asked to do a "heat map" of sorts where each column is a month. For each row…
