Hi
How can I count how many times a certain text is present from reports coming in from different dates?
I have to count how many times the text is there monthly. ( the text is a site name visited )
Thank you for your help
I just capture the name
=COUNTIF(Column1:Column1, "Text Capture")
If you are trying to capture text and capture it based on other criteria .. use the COUNTIFS
Is that what your thinking? If it isn't date dependant then you can just grab it by the text.
If I were trying to count how many times Blue was in a column
Name | Colors | Date
A Blue 01-01-2019
B Red 02-02-2019
C Blue 02-01-2019
=COUNTIF(Colors:Colors, "Blue")
I hope that was right I'm multitasking.
You would need to use the COUNTIFS to be able to include both the specific text and the date criteria.
=COUNTIFS([Site Name Column]:[Site Name Column], "Site Name", [Date Column]:[Date Column], AND(@cell >= DATE(yyyy, mm, dd), @cell <= DATE(yyyy, mm, dd)))
Where the first DATE function is the starting date of your date range, and the second DATE function is the ending date of the range.
You can also pull by looking at the month and year directly.
=COUNTIFS([Site Name Column]:[Site Name Column], "Site Name", [Date Column]:[Date Column], AND(MONTH(@cell) = ##, YEAR(@cell) = ####))
Hi All, I'm working on a formula that is evaluating three columns of data: 1) EOY Target Weighted MWh 2) Forecast Weighted MWh 3) Increase/Decrease (to determine if the goal for the year is to increase or decrease the MWh) Here is my current formula: =IF([Forecast Weighted MWh]@row = [EOY Target Weighted MWh]@row, "On…
I need the Date of Sample Shipment to start within 20 days of the Date of Manufacturing Start Date. However, the predecessor I have there isn't working properly. What should it be? Thank you so much
I am trying to find a way to look at text fields and automatically remove date and time stamps plus employee names. Any recommendations on identifying and removing text strings that meet the below formats: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.SSSSSSS ####### [Employee Name] YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.SSSSSSS ####### [Employee Name] We have a…
