Sumifs formula with a date
I'm trying to calculate a total value if two criteria are met using the sumifs formula but I keep getting a 0 result. I think the problem has to do with the format of the date field.
The formula is
=SUMIFS({Cost Tracker Testv1.2 Range 5}, {Cost Tracker Testv1.2 Range 4}, "Actual", {Cost Tracker Testv1.2 Range 7}, "01/04/22")
I know it can work as I changed the date "01/04/22" to "test" in the formula and in the original sheet and it returned a value.
The original sheet column is in the data format rather than text/number. I've also tried changing the / to . with no luck. Can anyone help? Thanks

To use a date in a formula, you have to use the DATE function.
=SUMIFS({Cost Tracker Testv1.2 Range 5}, {Cost Tracker Testv1.2 Range 4}, "Actual", {Cost Tracker Testv1.2 Range 7}, @cell = DATE(2022, 04, 01))
