COUNTIFS - Overdue tasks

klangridge103846 · 09/12/19

Hi,

I am trying to count live tasks that are overdue but I am getting #INVALID DATA TYPE

This is the formula I am using

=COUNTIFS(Status:Status, <>"Complete", [End to End Due Date]:[End to End Due Date], <=TODAY())

Any ideas?

Thanks

Karen

Hi Karen,

At a glance, it looks correct. Did you write the formula in Smartsheet?

Hope that helps!

Have a fantastic day!

Hi,

I have just started using Summary Sheet. It's the only formula I have had problems with so far. I have tried it on other sheets as well with no joy.

Thanks

Sorry, wrong screenshot

Do you have any blanks or "non-dates" in your date range?

Perfect! There were non-dates! Thank you so much

Happy to help. You can have non-dates within your range. It just requires some slight tweaking in our formula to account for.

I saw that Paul answered already!

Let me know if I can help with anything else!

Best,

Hi Paul,

Sorry, another quick question. I do have some date fields in another sheet that do need to be blank. How do I change to ignore them?

Thanks

=COUNTIFS(Status:Status, "Live", [End to End Due Date]:[End to End Due Date], IFERROR(DATEONLY(@cell), TODAY(1)) <= TODAY())

Give this a try and let me know how it works out for you.
