Dave from JBM

Trying to get a count of items where the 1st criteria is Machine is 801 and 2nd criteria is Training level is 8. any help would be greatly appreciated! What I have in there now comes back unparseable.

Just take out the = before both 801 and 8 and you should be good to go.

That leaves me with this - still says unparseable

@Dave from JBMoh, also take out the currently pink set of open and closed parenthesis. You only need them after COUNTIFS and at the very end.

=COUNTIFS(Machine1:Machine16,801,[Training Level]1:[Training Level]16,8)

That returns a zero even though there is one row that meets the criteria. It appears the issue is that the training level is generated by a formula. When I went down and manually entered a value of 8 in training level the countifs picked it up.
