Countif after certain date

JAA · 03/29/19

Hi!

I'm trying to create a formula that will count the number of rows that have a "Delivery Date" after 1/1/2019. Any row with a date prior to that should not be counted. I also do not want blank rows counted.

In the screen capture attached, you'll see all but one populated row should be counted.

Any suggestions on a formula I could use? I appreciate any assistance you can provide!

I don't know how to input hard dates within SmartSheet formulas, so I have a solution by adding a new column. Call it whatever (I used "Anchor Date" to test it out), and copy/paste your 1/1/19 date into the entire row) then use:

=COUNTIFS([Delivery Date]$1:[Delivery Date]$7, [Delivery Date]1 <> "", [Delivery Date]$1:[Delivery Date]$7, [Delivery Date]1 > [Anchor Date]1)

You can drop this formula through the whole column if you'd like. And every row would show the total. If you didn't want the blank rows to show any number edit the formula to exclude blanks:

=IF([Delivery Date]1 = "", "", COUNTIFS([Delivery Date]$1:[Delivery Date]$7, [Delivery Date]1 <> "", [Delivery Date]$1:[Delivery Date]$7, [Delivery Date]1 > [Anchor Date]1))

to input a hard date you use the Date Reference

=Date(2019,12,31)

will return december 31, 2019

This can be used inside of formulas as well

Great! I accomplished what I needed with the below formula.

=COUNTIFS([Delivery Date]:[Delivery Date], [Delivery Date]1 <> "", [Delivery Date]:[Delivery Date], [Delivery Date]1 > DATE(2019, 1, 1))

Thank you! This in addition to the above comment got me closer to where I'd like to be.

I will have to remember that one, it's not often I need to use it, but for those couple of times!

If I wanted to add in that the date would also have to be before today's date (so Jan 1st through today), what would you suggest?

if you want it to always be the current year and not have to update the formula annually you can use this

date(year(today()),1,1)

Found what I needed:

=COUNTIFS([Delivery Date]:[Delivery Date], [Delivery Date]1 <> "", [Delivery Date]:[Delivery Date], [Delivery Date]1 > DATE(2019, 1, 1), [Delivery Date]:[Delivery Date], [Delivery Date]1 < TODAY())

You can also use the AND function for your criteria along with@cellreferences.

=COUNTIFS([Delivery Date]:[Delivery Date], AND(ISDATE(@cell), YEAR(@cell= YEAR(TODAY()),@cell< TODAY()))

你只引用一个范围。你的约会对象就响了e. You can use the AND function to combine all of the criteria to keep from having to repeat the range.

In this particular formula we are saying to look at the [Delivery Date] column and count all cells that meet the following criteria:

Is a date

AND

Has the current year

AND

is before today.

Great info! I love the tip about the available template.
