CountIfs Question

I am trying to use the countifs formula to fill in my request metrics sheet. I need to count how many times one person has been assinged specific items from a drop down.

=COUNTIFS(Category47, {INNOV_Request Tracker Range 1}, [Request Status]:[Request Status], "Analysis Approved", "Project Approved", "Task Approved", "Under Review", 1)

This is the formula that I am using and it keeps giving me unparseable as my answer.

The drop down options are in the request status column and I need to count 4 of them.

Help!

    Hi@DeMetria Hines

    There are two things to note here.

    1) First, it looks like you're searching for the person identified in the cell to the left (ex. "DeMetria Hines"), but you don't list the column to look for that value.

    Find the column with the Names in a {Cross Sheet Reference}, like so:

    =COUNTIFS({Column with Names}, Category@row,

    Then once you have your first column and criteria listed, you can add the second column and criteria:

    =条件统计(Category@row{列名字},{Column with Request Status}, "Analysis Approved")

    This should give you a COUNT of the number of rows that the person on the left has in the "Analysis Approved" Status column.


    2) Secondly, to countotherStatuses as well, you'll just need to re-do the formula and add all your values together with +, like so:

    =条件统计(Category@row{列名字},{Column with Request Status}, "Analysis Approved") + COUNTIFS({Column with Names}, Category@row, {Column with Request Status}, "Project Approved") + COUNTIFS({Column with Names}, Category@row, {Column with Request Status}, "Task Approved") + COUNTIFS({Column with Names}, Category@row, {Column with Request Status}, "Under Review")

    Cheers,

    Hi@DeMetria Hines,

    You need to identify one criterion per pair, so where you have "Analysis Approved", "Project Approved", "Task Approved", "Under Review" all listed for the [Request Status]:[Request Status], it is unable to figure out what you are asking for. You might be better off using the <> (not equal to) to filter for anything that is not your unassigned category.

    [Request Status]:[Request Status], <>"Assignment Pending"

Hi, <\/p>

I hope you're well and safe!<\/p>

Try something like this.<\/p>

=IF([Date Reported]@row <> \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\", IF([Resolution Date]@row = \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\", NETDAYS([Date Reported]@row, TODAY()), NETDAYS([Date Reported]@row, [Resolution Date]@row)))<\/p>

Did that work\/help? <\/p>

I hope that helps!<\/p>

Be safe, and have a fantastic weekend!<\/p>

Best,<\/p>
