Does Smartsheet support SUM COUNTIFS formulas?

Howdy Smartsheet Community,

I've written a =SUM(COUNTIFS) formula to count the number of specific text entries in one range that meet specific criteria. Based on the in-line formula help and online SUM COUNTIFS research I've done, it appears that my formula is correct but keeps returning #UNPARSEABLE.

Has anyone successfully used SUM COUNTIFS formulas in Smartsheet, or is it possibly not supported? Hopefully there's just an error in my formula, which is most likely the case.

For reference my formula is as follows, in case anyone sees an immediate red flag.

=SUM(COUNTIFS(Status4:Status138,{"Complete","Not Applicable"}))

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

The smartsheet layout isn't the same as the excel layout for the countifs command.

the way you have written it is designed to be saved as an array, which to my knowledge smartsheet does not support. Unless they have added the functionality since this conversation: https://community.smartsheet.com/discussion/add-ability-use-array-formulas

If you want to count if the value is either complete or not applicable, just use a regular countif and add them. It's a little longer and less pretty but it works.

Countif(status4:status138,"Complete")+countif(status4:status138,"Not Applicable")

Thanks, Luke_TK! That worked perfectly. When in doubt, simplify right?!?

Appreciate the help, quick feedback and the updated/corrected formula!
