SUMIFS with LEFT as a reference

inFormulas and Functions

I'm looking to sum a range as long as 3 criterion are met. 1 of those criterion is that Left of another sheet reference (4 characters) match a cell (could be text in the formula as well).

=SUMIFS({Time To Assemble}, {IPK}, [Machine Type]@row, {Progress}, "Finished", LEFT({Item Number}, 4), [Machine Type]$17)

This is currently what I have and it's returning invalid data. After some research I believe it has to do with SUMIFS looking for the exact text in the cell and not able to reference an entire row with the left function.

Any thoughts would be helpful!

Double check your cross sheet references. Make sure they are all single columns by clicking on the appropriate column header.<\/p>


<\/p>

When doing this, give the sheet a little time to load before selecting the column. Sometimes moving too fast allows you to select a column header before the sheet fully loads in the creator window. Then when the sheet does finally completely load in, the selection automatically reverts to the home cell (top right corner). This happens to me quite a bit when I am in a hurry.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":254,"urlcode":"Formulas","name":"Formulas"}]},{"discussionID":106940,"type":"question","name":"IF cell CONTAINS one\/two\/three different values, return corresponding values","excerpt":"Hello community, I am attempting to return single or multiple values depending on a multiple dropdown column.

Hi @Sam Swain<\/a>,<\/p>

You should be able to use this formula to accomplish this:<\/p>

=IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Consolidation\"), \"🝢\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Reduction\"), \"︾\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"New\"), \"○\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Termination\"), \"⨷\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\")<\/p>

Example output:<\/p>

\n
\n \n \"image.png\"<\/img><\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hope this helps - if there are any issues etc. then just post! ☺️<\/span><\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":254,"urlcode":"Formulas","name":"Formulas"}]}],"initialPaging":{"nextURL":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/api\/v2\/discussions?page=2&categoryID=322&includeChildCategories=1&type%5B0%5D=Question&excludeHiddenCategories=1&sort=-hot&limit=3&expand%5B0%5D=all&expand%5B1%5D=-body&expand%5B2%5D=insertUser&expand%5B3%5D=lastUser&status=accepted","prevURL":null,"currentPage":1,"total":10000,"limit":3},"title":"Trending in Formulas and Functions ","subtitle":null,"description":null,"noCheckboxes":true,"containerOptions":[],"discussionOptions":[]}">
