Sumif across Children and Grand Children

Michaël @ NDA Group

Dear Community,

I am trying to SUMIF accross all Children and Grand Children but unfortunately retrieving an #UNPARSEABLE value.

Here are the formulas I have been trying:

SUMIF($[Payment Status]5:$[Payment Status]50), "Received", [2019 Wk 02]5:[2019 Wk 02]50))

=> result to #UNPARSEABLE

SUMIF(CHILDREN($[Payment Status]27), "Received", CHILDREN([2019 Wk 01]27)

= >不会和大孩子只有结果the children, which is not what I am looking for.

Is there a possibility to sumif across the whole column regardless Parent / Children / Grand Children ?



Thx a lot for the help

Hi,

Try this.

SUMIF([Payment Status]:[Payment Status]), "Received", [2019 Wk 02]:[2019 Wk 02]))

Did it work?

Have a fantastic week!

Andree's response is correct.

As a note though... Your first formula (the one not using the CHILDREN function) was returning #UNPARESEABLE because you have an extra closing parenthesis on the end.

Dear Andrée,

Thank you for your response, but it does actually also return #unparseable. This cannot work since the cells I am willing to count are only under Row5, and I am returning the result in the Row3 of the same Col.

Also, I wish to keep the first the "range" fixed and keeping the possibility to increment the "[sum_range]" So I can populate all the weeks of the year and on and on for future years, but it doesn't seems to work either.

=SUMIF($[Payment Status]27:$[Payment Status]50), "Received", [2019 Wk 02]27:[2019 Wk 02]50))

Dear Paul,

Thank you as well for your response, My previous formula is actually a wrong copy paste, but there was no typo issue in the sheet.

Full formula:

=IF(SUMIF(CHILDREN($[Payment Status]27), "Received", CHILDREN([2019 Wk 01]27)) = 0, "", SUMIF(CHILDREN($[Payment Status]27), "Received", CHILDREN([2019 Wk 01]27)))

This formula works, however this will only return me "" as it will only search the Children and not the Grand Children... So I still can't retrieve the sum of "Received" payments.

If any of you have other ideas, I would be glad to discussing it further,

Thx,

Michaël

Dear Andrée,

This is indeed working, my mistake was as well a typo issue spotted by Paul below...

Also, I am trying to have the possibility to increment the [sum range] over all the 52 weeks column of the year, and then on and on, for future years to have a rolling system. But it does not seems to increment. Am I missing something?



=SUMIF($[Payment Status]:$[Payment Status], "Received", [2019 Wk 02]:[2019 Wk 02])

to be incremented automatically (while dragging right) to:

=SUMIF($[Payment Status]:$[Payment Status], "Received", [2019 Wk 03]:[2019 Wk 03])



All the best!

Excellent!

Happy to help!

For all weeks.

The sum range has to be the same length as the criteria range. You'd need to use a SUMIF formula for each week instead and add those together.

Try something like this and continue the pattern for all weeks.

=SUMIF([Payment Status]:[Payment Status]; "Received"; [2019 Wk 01]:[2019 Wk 01]) + SUMIF([Payment Status]:[Payment Status]; "Received"; [2019 Wk 02]:[2019 Wk 02])

The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.

=SUMIF([Payment Status]:[Payment Status], "Received", [2019 Wk 01]:[2019 Wk 01]) + SUMIF([Payment Status]:[Payment Status], "Received", [2019 Wk 02]:[2019 Wk 02])

Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.

Did it work?

Best,

Andrée

Are you referring to dragfilling? If so, it should automatically update the range as you go column by column when dragfilling.
