Pulling data from different sheet that meets given criteria

JRose · 08/17/18

Hi-- I am aware that I can select cells X1 - X50, for example, to reflect their sum on a different sheet.

But in my case I am looking to automatically calculate sales on a separate sheet. So, out of a given list of prospects, I wish to pull figures only from those entries that have a checkbox associated with a sale in a given column. How can I calculate just those figures on my separate sheet?

Thanks!

Hi,

Try this:

=SUMIF({Sale Range}; 1; ({Sum Range}))

Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the semi-colon to a comma in the above formula.

Please see the attached link/screenshot for more information.

I hope this helps you!

Forgive me, this is returning "#UNPARSEABLE".

My formula is: =SUMIF({{{{Rainbow_2018 Range 2}}}}, 1, ({{{{Rainbow_2018 Range 3}}}}))

where the first range represents a checkbox column and the second range represents a column containing numeric values.

I have tried with comma and semicolon, and have also tried selecting specific cells (rather than entire column) to see if this might work, to no avail.

Thank you--

Try this:

=SUMIF({Rainbow_2018 Range 2}, 1, ({Rainbow_2018 Range 3}))

You had to many curly braces it seems.

You da man.

Thank you! Glad that we got it fixed.

Out of curiosity... What is the purpose of the extra () wrapped around the second range? I've never seen it done that way.

It has no function.

No purpose, just a mistake

10-4. Just making sure I hadn't missed something. You know Smartsheet and their sometimes not so smart ideas...
