In this tutorial we’re looking at the COUNTIF and COUNTIFS Formulas, and we'll take a look at a couple of different applications for them.
Plus you can download a practice workbook, you'll find the file down below.
The COUNTIF/S functions work ALMOST in the same way as the SUMIF/S functions only they’re slightly simpler. So if you haven’t mastered SUMIF/S yet be sure to check out our SUMIF/S tutorial too.
COUNTIF extends the capabilities of the basic COUNT function by allowing you to tell Excel to only COUNT items that meet a certain criteria. New in Excel 2007 is the COUNTIFS function, which allows you to stipulate multiple criteria, hence the plural.
Enough explanation, let’s dive into an example as it’s easier to visualise.
COUNTIF Function
The function wizard in Excel describes COUNTIF as:
=COUNTIF(range,criteria)
Looks fairly simple and it is. Let’s translate it into English now by applying it to an example. Say we wanted to count the number of times Dave appeared in column C of the table below.
 |
Translated our formula would read like this:
=COUNTIF(count the number of cells in column C, that contain 'Dave')
We could even create a table under the data to count the occurrences of each builder:
 |
Our formula in cell C12 would be:
=COUNTIF(C2:C7,"Dave")
While the above formula is good, if we were to copy it to the rest of the summary table (cells C11 to C14) we would have to manually change the cell references and builder’s name to get the correct answers.
To avoid this manual intervention, we can use absolute references, which will speed up the process of copying the formula to the remainder of column C.
With absolute references our formula would look like this:
=COUNTIF($C$2:$C$7,$B12)
The ‘$’ signs tell Excel that we don’t want the reference after the ‘$’ sign to change when we copy the formula. For example, if we copied the formula into cell C13 it would read:
=COUNTIF($C$2:$C$7,$B13)
In the above formula we can see that the only reference that changed was $B12, which became $B13.
The best way to understand how this works is to try it for yourself.
Enter your email address below to download the sample workbook.
Note: I used a basic example to illustrate how to use COUNTIF, but you could also achieve this count by builder using the subtotal tool in the Data tab.
COUNTIFS Function
The function wizard in Excel describes COUNTIFS as:
=COUNTIFS(critera_range_1,criteria_1,criteria_range_2,criteria_2.....and so on if required)
Extending the previous COUNTIF example above, say we wanted to only summarise the data by builder for jobs in the South region. We could use the COUNTIFS function, as it allows us to set more than one condition.
Here’s how the formula would be interpreted if we wanted to count the occurrences of Brian in column C, where jobs were in the South region:
=COUNTIFS(count the number of cells in column C if, they contain ‘Brian’ and, if in column B, they are also for the South region)
Note: Excel will only include the cells in column C in the count when both conditions (Brian & South) are met.
Using absolute references, our COUNTIFS formula in Excel cell C20 would read:
=COUNTIFS($C$2:$C$7,$B20,$B$2:$B$7,$B$17)
 |
Try other operators
Just like the IF Statement and SUMIF formula, the COUNTIF and COUNTIFS are based on logic. This means you can employ different tests other than the text matching (Brian & South) we’ve used above.
Other operators you could use are:
- = Equal to
- < Less Than
- > Greater Than
- <= Less than or equal to
- >= Greater than or equal to
- <> Less than or greater than
For example, if you wanted to count the jobs with an average > $300k the formula would be:
=COUNTIF($E$2:$E$7,">300")
Note: again I’ve used a simple example to illustrate this, but another way to achieve this summary table for each builder by region is to use a Pivot Table.

Excel SUMIF and SUMIFS Formulas Explained
N O
How can a formula like this work =countIFS(A=A, A,”1>B”,”1<B") or a different formula with same criteria
I want the formula to count if:
1. the values are equal to each other
OR
2. If value in cell A is one greater than value in cell B (i.e value in cell A = 3 and value in cell B = 2)
OR
3. If value in cell A is one less than value in cell B (i.e value in cell A = 2 and value in cell B = 3)
The formula would yield 1 if one of these criteria are met
Mynda Treacy
You’d have to use the SUMPRODUCT function for this. e.g.:
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A6=B1:B6)+(A1:A6=B1:B6+1)+(A1:A6=B1:B6-1))

Where are the COUNTIF formulae effects
Mynda Treacy
Hi Ahser, I’m not sure what you mean by this, sorry.
Autumn Turner
For some reason Excel will not let me count the number of occurrences of the word “Green” it works with Blue, Red, Yellow etc.
This is what I am using:
=COUNTIF(Q2:Q100, “Green”)
Again, the exact same formula works for blue, yellow, and red.
Additionally using =INDEX($A$2:$A$5, RANDBETWEEN(1,5)) where the list is (Green, Red, Blue, Yellow) the word green shows up as #REF!
Is there something wrong with the word “Green”?
Catalin Bombea
Hi,
Check that cell for invisible chars like trailing spaces, new line chars (CHAR(10), CHAR(13) for example)
Should work after you remove them.
Philip Treacy
Hi Autumn,
I can’t be sure without seeing your data – you could open a topic on the forum and supply your workbook.
With COUNTIF, are you getting an error or is it just not counting all the occurrences of Green? If it’s the latter, are you sure all the cells actually contain the word Green? Perhaps there are leading or trailing spaces or some other characters in there?
The INDEX formula is being given a 4 cell range but RANDBETWEEN is returning a number between 1 and 5. So if it returns 5, you’ll get a #REF from INDEX.

Is there a way that i can use an excel formula to count how many calls are being dialed on my software phone?? Im currently running a call center and i want to keep count of how many calls my agents are making in an hour for 8 hours.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Nicolae,
You can use a formula, but only if you have that data in excel. That software should provide usage logs that can be analyzed in excel, but I cannot say more without seeing how data looks like.
You can upload a sample file to our forum.

I do traning for 8 topics. these training topics for all staff and suppose to expire yearly and show red colour. the problem i have cells dates sep 20 or oct 15 and showing green not expired.
=COUNTIF(H7:O7,”>”&TODAY()-365)
Mynda Treacy
Hi Nadim,
I suspect the dates in those cells might be text, not proper date serial numbers that Excel recognises.

Great information on Countif. I am trying to use it on an attendance sheet to count the number or absences, tardies, sick time etc for example that appear in a referenced ranged for each student. So i have a total tab then i have several sheets for each month. The formula i am using looks like this, =COUNTIF(‘Aug 2019:May 2020’!C2:AG2, “A”). The A refers to absent then i have T for tardy and so on. It works when I select one tab but when i enter a range of tab it it gives me a value error. I tried the SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIIF(INDIRECT but it is not efficient. Any suggestions please?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Malcolm,
Sounds like you have dozens of worksheets, that is not an efficient data structure, it will lead to more and more complex formulas.
It’s best to summarize them with power query in this case.
Malcolm
Thank you. I am in the process of trying that now. I will let you know how it goes.
KJ
HI, I have a question- in your image of “COUNTIF Function”,
Builder ‘Dave’ did total 13 units.
Excel C3 – “Dave” Excel D3 – “10”
Excel C4 – “Dave” Excel D4 – “3”
How can I show on the excel formula that Dave has completed “13” Units?
With COUNTIF function, I can only make Dave has completed two (2) jobs, not units…
Please kindly help!
Thank you!
Catalin Bombea
Hi KJ,
Use SUMIF to add column D based on column C values, not COUNTIF.
In E3: =SUMIF($D$1:$D$10,C1)
Copy this down as needed.

Hello,
I am hoping you can help me. I have a spreadsheet where each project has its own tab, and then there is another tab labeled June that does some analysis off the 20 project tabs. I have a very large formula, and I’m hoping you have a better and shorter way to display this formula. I am using multiple countif formulas currently.
Here is the formula:
=COUNTIFS(‘P1′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P1’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P2′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P2’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P3′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P3’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P4′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P4’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P5′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P5’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P6′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P6’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P7′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P7’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P8′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P8’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P9′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P9’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P10′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P10’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P11′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P11’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P12′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P12’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P13′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P13’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P14′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P14’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P15′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P15’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P16′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P16’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P17′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P17’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P18′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P18’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P19′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P19’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)+COUNTIFS(‘P20′!$B$14:$B$38,June!A11,’P20’!$L$14:$L$38,June!$B$1)
For project one it’s saying to look at the project 1 tab and count how may times the following two conditions are met: impacted group says clients, and the date is 6/3/2019. This formula does work as is. Then do that for every tab and add them together. However, scalability is an issue, as there could be upwards of 50 projects and the formula is only set up for 20. I know Excel has a limit on the number of elements/characters you can use in one formula.
Can you help me figure out a way to shorten this formula down to a more manageable size? I’ve tried naming ranges which I can’t seem to get to work. Any help would be appreciated.
Mynda Treacy
Hi Rachel,
When I see formulas like this it tells me that the data is in the wrong format and now you’re paying for it with these overly complicated formulas. Please read this tutorial on writing formuals effectively.
The shorter way is to use Power Query to consoliate the data spread across separate sheets into a single table in a tabular layout. Then you can use a single COUNTIFS formula without any nesting required.
I hope that points you in the right direction. If you get stuck, we have an Excel Forum where you can post questions and a sample Excel file so we can help you with a specific answer.

Thank you so much Catalin, but that formula doesn’t provide the resolve I was looking for. I just want to drag the formula acrosss rows with only the number “1” changing to “2”, “3”, etc. Any further help is appreciated.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Carol,
In this formula:
=COUNTIF($C3:$C363,Row(A1))
Row(A1) will return 1 for the first cell with this formula. When you copy down this cell, the row number will increase, next cells will have: Row(A2)-this returns 2, Row(A3)-this returns 3 and so on.
I guess you did not tested the formula? If you did, should work.
Carol
=COUNTIF($C3:$C363,”1″) how do I copy this formula across rows to read =COUNTIF($C3:$C363,”2″), =COUNTIF($C3:$C363,”3″), etc? It will only copy =COUNTIF($C3:$C363,”1″) across the rows. Thank you.

I have a spreadsheet with a row of dates (M6:M24) that I am trying to count how many dates in the row are before or equal to todays date ($P$3). (I know I don’t need to reference a cell for todays date but want to).
My formula is: =COUNTIF(M6:M24,”<"&$P$3)
My formula does what I want except when I apply a filter to a column. The total still shows everything not just what is visible. I think I need to use a SUMPRODUCT formula but don't know how to write it.
Please help!

Hi Mark,
SUMPRODUCT won’t ignore hidden or filtered rows either. In fact nothing will COUNTIF and ignore filtered rows. You’d be best to use a PivotTable.

How do you find the unique value once you’ve located multiple rows for the same entry on a spreadsheet?
=IF(COUNTIFS($A:$A,A2,$B:$B,$B2)>1, “Multiple Lines”, “”)
There are multiple lines because each line can contain one or more indications (this report is for antibiotic use and it’s associated indication). So once the “multiple lines” are identified, how do you then count them as “1” to keep your numbers correct?
If I have 10 lines for a dose of antibiotics and 4 of those lines are for one unique administration, then the total number of unique doses administered should be 7 vs 10. What other argument or function is needed to acheive this calculation without needing to concatenate my rows into 1 row. I have done this before and it is very time consuming with a couple of helper columns and formulas.
Thanks for your help!!
Lauren
Hello,
I am working with hospital data. I need to count how often a dose of a specific antibiotic was given and include the indications associated with that order. Some of the orders have multiple indications, so for every administration, there can be multiple lines of data (i.e. 3 lines of data for each specific indication, for each single administration).
I am able to use the countifs to identify the duplicate rows using multiple columns, but how do I then count each administration as 1 when there may be 3 lines.
Identify multiple lines =IF(COUNTIFS($A:$A,$A521,$B:$B,$B521)>1, “Multiple Lines”, “”)
I’ve included a small sample size of my data. There is a unique order ID associated with an administration date and time, then the assigned diagnoses.

Hi,
I’m trying to create a Countif formula that would count the amount of words that begin with a letter in column B, of those rows, then count if the value in column I is equal to a number.

Hi Alison,
Your formula has too many arguments. COUNTIF only has 2 arguments: range and criteria. e.g. it should be something like this:
=COUNTIF(B2:B3517,”A*”)

In How many rows we have (“a” in column F AND “1” in column A) OR (“b” in column F AND “2” in column A)? (the 3 in second criteria array is useless, as there is no pair value in first array). So “a” is only associated with 1, “b” is associated only with 2, they have to be in the same row.
Second version says:
In How many rows we have (“a” OR “b” in column F) AND (1 OR 2 OR 3 in column A)?
The second formula can be written as:
=SUM(COUNTIFS(B:B,{“a”,”a”,”a”,”b”,”b”,”b”}, A:A,{1,2,3,1,2,3}))
Each element from first constants array has only one correspondent value in second constants array, both arrays must have the same size.
You can set the associations in any combination you want, for example you can find in how many rows there are “a” & 1 OR “c” & 3:
=SUM(COUNTIFS(B:B,{“a”,”c”}, A:A,{1,3}))

Thanks a lot Catalin.

Hi Mynda,
Is it possible to count cells in a range that contain a number, only if a non adjacent cell also contains data? e.g. In the range A1:A10 cells A3,A7 & A10 contain a number and in the range B1:B10 cells B1, B3, B6 & B9 contain data. I want to count the number of cells containing data in A1:A10 but only if there is data in a cell one across and one up i.e. B2, B6 & B9. The answer should be 2. Thanks
Catalin Bombea
Hi Phil,
Your data should start from row 2, not row 1, in order to use this formula:
=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A11<>“”)*(B1:B10<>“”))
The ranges should be equal, note that the second has a 1 cell offset.

Hi, I have a question regarding COUNTIFS. The simple boiled down version of what I am trying to do is…I am trying to use COUNTIFS to count the number of entries that the departure date is either blank or in the future (greater than today) and that is marked with an “X” in another column. There are several other renditions in the formula but if I can get this, I can get the rest. So far, I have…
=SUM(COUNTIFS($C$2:$C$50,{“”;”>”&TODAY()},$E$2:$E$50,”X”))
Excel won’t let me return out of the formula and highlights the quotation mark following the greater than symbol. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? Thanks for the help.
Tom
Mynda Treacy
Hi Tom,
You can’t have OR criteria in COUNTIFS. Every criteria is considered AND. Instead you can use SUMPRODUCT to hand ORs.
You can learn more about SUMPRODUCT here.

I have a question-
How can I get this =COUNTIF(E3:G3,”X”) to produce a result of 100% instead of 3% in cell H3? I am trying to get the percentage in cell H3 to change as each of the other cells is populated with “X” Am I using the wrong formula?
Thanks
Marcy
Just to add more info- it is now this =COUNTIF(E3:G3,”X”)+100-3 but I want the percent to start at 25% then go up from there as each cell has an X put into it. Right now it starts at 97% since there are only 3 cells its looking at

Yourik Kazarian
Hey There
I am trying to create a cell in G2 in which whatever value i put in C2,c3,c4, Etc… only counts if the date i put in B2,B3,B4, Etc… has passed.
Currently this is what i have
=(COUNTIFS(B2:B9,”<="&TODAY(),C2:C9,"”))
However, this seems to only give me a value of 1 whenever i put any value in the C column.
Is there a variation to this formula that will count the exact value i put into C?
Mynda Treacy
Hi Yourik,
COUNTIF or COUNTIFS will only count the dates in column B has passed today’s date. It won’t count values in column C. Are you sure you don’t want to SUM values in column C when the date in column B has passed?
That would be SUMIF like this:

Hi Mynda,
I’m trying to use a similar formula for a similar situation. What I’m trying to do is count the number of cells that have a date that falls within ” today() and today()+31 “. I’m trying to use
=COUNTIFS(N13:N22,”>=”&TODAY(),N13:N66,”<="&TODAY()+31) which gives me the result of " #value ". This is based off of ' =COUNTIFS(N13:N22,"<="&TODAY()) " which I used to get one result and that's working just fine. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Brian,
The ranges should have equal ranges, in the first criteria range you have N13:N22, in the second you have N13:N66. If they have the same size, the formula should work.
Catalin
Brian
Wow I can’t believe I messed that up. Changing the 22 to a 66 though is now giving me a quantity of ” 0 “. I have a test worksheet set up so it should populate a 4. below is the adjusted formula along with cells N13 through N22.
=COUNTIFS(N13:N22,”=&TODAY()”,N13:N22,”=&TODAY()+31″)
15-Aug-17
30-Sep-17
30-Sep-17
27-Mar-18

(I’m relatively new to all of this, it took me about 2 weeks of trial and error and google to build up to here. changing cell color based on date, adjust dates with edate, half this formula to get dates that occur after today. 600+ cells 8 worksheets, and each cell a constantly changing date.)
Catalin Bombea
Hi Brian,
It’s important where you put the double quotes.
=COUNTIFS(N13:N22,”=&TODAY()”,N13:N22,”=&TODAY()+31″)
Should be:
=COUNTIFS(N13:N22,”=”&TODAY(),N13:N22,”=”&TODAY()+31)
If the today formula is wrapped between double quotes, it will no longer be a formula, i’s just the formula name instead of the value used in criteria.

what do i do if i want to count Daves sales value and not the number of time he appeared in the sheet
Mynda Treacy
Hi Vlad,
I think you mean ‘sum’ or add up Dave’s sales value. In which case you can use a SUMIF formula for that.
Mynda
Catalin Bombea
Hi Vlad,
What do you mean? A count is a count, no matter the column. Counting how many sales values we have for Daves will give the same number as counting how many times Daves is in that list. Maybe you want to add Daves’s values? Try SUMIF instead of COUNTIF. There is also a SUMIFS version.

What if I want to count everything in ONE column IF it = ‘pass’ OR IF it = FAIL ?
Example:Column J6:J100 can contain Pass, Fail or can be blank.
I want to count all the Pass and all the Fail
I tried:
COUNTIFS(J6:J100,”PASS”, “FAIL”)
But it comes up with a count = 0.
I have 4 = pass and 1 = fail so the count should be 5.
What did I do wrong?
thanks!
Catalin Bombea
Hi,
COUNTIFS is used to apply different criteria to multiple columns, each criteria must be met in the same row for that row to be counted. COUUNTIFS works with an AND logic, it will not count a row if the criteria is “PASS” OR “FAIL” it will always consider “PASS” AND “FAIL”, and both those values cannot exist in the same time in the same cell.
You should use 2 COUNTIF:
=COUNTIF(J6:J100,”PASS”)+COUNTIF(J6:J100, “FAIL”)

Hi Omer,
You can use Text to columns to extract the second last series into another column. From there you can use PivotTables to count the instance of each number.

Hi I am a basic excel user, I am using excel 2016, my question is:
I am using the sumproduct formula to get my results the formula is
=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(AR9:AR4148,ROW(AR9:AR4148)-MIN(ROW(AR9:AR4148)),,1))*(AR9:AR4148=”A”))
however in another column i want to use the same formula and I wan this to calculate the same way but the number not text, but it is not giving any result. For example I want the aforementioned formula to work like this
=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(AR9:AR4148,ROW(AR9:AR4148)-MIN(ROW(AR9:R4148)),,1))*(AR9:AR4148=”1″))
But it is not giving the correct answer, can you please help me.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Syed,
(AR9:AR4148=”1″) will assume that the column is formatted as text, it’s searching for text strings, not numbers (when a number is between double quotes, it’s a text, not a number). If you have numbers, and the column is formatted as numbers, simply use:
(AR9:AR4148=1) (without double quotes). Make sure you have the same data type in the formula and in that column. Or you can force that column to convert it to text, by adding a zero length string to that column:
(“”&AR9:AR4148=”1″) This way, both sides of the equation will have the same data type.

Hi I am new Excel user, I have an excel sheet in which 2 columns are dates 1 is date item is received and the other one is the date when item was sent back with comments, I want to have a third column which tells how many days the item was sitting with us, I am doing it in a simple way =W225-U225 by this i get my desired result, my concern is, a cell in W column will be empty till item is not responded and if it is empty the cell with the formula is showing some strange numbers. how can I fix this.
Mynda Treacy
Hi Syed,
You can use IF to check whether the second date field is empty. If it’s empty you can tell Excel to return blank, otherwise do the calculation. Here is an example formula:
A1 contains your received date and B1 contains the date the item was sent back.

Outstanding explanation, the “COUNTIFS” functions without any problems. However I need the formula to go one step further. I’m searching in two different columns (ranges) and have specified two different criterion, to this point no problems. The last and final step is to divide by a specified cell, if the cell has a “0” then I get the dreaded “#DIV/0”. Is there any way to get rid of the error “#DIV/0”?
=COUNTIFS($M$8:$M$27,$B$74)/$B$8
=COUNTIFS($M$8:$M$27,$B$74,$N$8:$N$27,$B$75)/$BP$7
In the above examples, both produce “#DIV/0” if the last cell (B8 and BP7) have a “0” in the cell. Understand I can’t divide by 0, is it possible to get rid of “#DIV/0?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Joe,
You can Simply wrap your functions with the IFERROR function, then choose what you want to return in that case:
=IFERROR(COUNTIFS($M$8:$M$27,$B$74,$N$8:$N$27,$B$75)/$BP$7,”Error Message here, or a number”)

Hi,
Can you help with a formula please. I need to use conditional formatting to highlight cells when a number is repeated more than 3 times, where in another cell is the word No.
I have managed the first part of the formula as =COUNTIF(A:A, A1,) > 3 but I can’t combine it with the 2nd condition. Below is an example of the data I’m using
Staff Number Deselected
95486245 Yes
36874592 No
48596314 No
95486245 No
36874592 Yes
48596314 No
95486245 No
95486245 No
36874592 Yes
36874592 Yes
So only the staff number 95486245 meets the criteria of appearing more than 3 times with ‘No’ in the deselected column.
Thanks

I’m currently using the following DATEDIF formula to run a day counter:
=DATEDIF(D2,TODAY(), “d”)
It works fine but I’d like to combine it with a COUNTEDIF formula so that the total will stop adding once another field is closed out, i.e. I have final date in another cell, and once that date is filled out I want the counter to stop. Does that make sense?

Very helpful in understanding the countif and countifs functions. Thank you. However I’m trying to use the countif function and want to increment the criteria by one for each cell that I paste the formula in. Example: A1 has 2 in it, A2 has 2 in it, A3 has 1 in it. B1 has this foumula =COUNTIF(A$1:A$3, 1) in it. B2 has this formula =COUNTIF(A$1:A$3, 2) in it. Etc.
Can you help me with this?
Catalin Bombea
Hi John,
The easiest way is to use the ROW function, ROW(A1) will return the row number of the reference, use relative reference for the row number and it will increease when you copy down the formula:
=COUNTIF(A$1:A$3, ROW($A1))
If you want to copy the formula to the right, then use COLUMN function instead of ROW (column reference should be relative now):
=COUNTIF(A$1:A$3, COLUMN(A$1))

I am using three criterias to be matched and then out of them need a counts between date range. I have below formula which gives one count considering matched items for three criteria and another for counts between range. But I am looking for ciombined results from this.
=COUNT(IF(Sheet1!$H$2:$H$164=Sheet2′!S$2,IF(Sheet1!$G$2:$G$162=’Sheet2′!$Q3,IF(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$164=’Sheet2′!$P$2,sheet1′!$A$2:$A$173))))
=countifs(Sheet1!$K$2:$K$162,”>=01/01/2016″,Sheet1!$K$2:$K$162,”<=01/31/2016")
From the first formula we get few counts after that I want to filter them with between range.
how do I can combine this formula
Hope I will get results for it
Catalin Bombea
Hi Suresh,
You can combine multiple criterias for a count using SUMPRODUCT:
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!$H$2:$H$164=Sheet2!S$2)*(Sheet1!$G$2:$G$162=Sheet2!$Q3)*(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$164=Sheet2!$P$2)*(Sheet1!$K$2:$K$162>=”01/01/2016″)*(Sheet1!$K$2:$K$162<="01/31/2016")) Catalin

Hi,
How can I modify the Countifs function to count the number of populated cells regardless of the value in criteria range1? I have multiple Customers and I just want to count them if criteria range2 contains a “D1″ code.
=Countifs($C$2:$C$7,???,$B$2:$B$7,”D1”)

Hi Dayan,
If you want a single criteria, use COUNTIF instead of COUNTIFS:
=Countif($B$2:$B$7,”D1″)
Catalin
Dayan Montano
Thank you Catalin! I was probably not clear.
If there is a customer name present in range1, I need to count it regardless of who the customer is, but only if range2 has the code D1. I found the following code for non-blank cells [“”&””].
=COUNTIFS(Summary!U:U,””&””,Summary!Q:Q,”D1″)
However my range1 is populated via a VLOOKUP and I think it’s counting even if the cell is blank. I am using the IFERROR(VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,[range_lookup]),””) function to populate it. Any tips on how to fix it?
Regards,
Catalin Bombea
You Should try this:
=SUMPRODUCT((Summary!U:U<>“”)*(Summary!Q:Q=”D1″))
It’s more reliable than COUNTIF.
Cheers,

In your formula it shown only how many names for Brian’s and name of Brian in the South. Please I want to know the formula to calculate the Units of Mr. Brian which I manually count is 13.

Hi Archie,
Try: =SUMIF(C2:C7,C3,D2:D7) where C2:C7 is the criteria range, C3 has the criteria, and D2:D7 is the range to sum. Keep in mind that the criteria range and the range to sum must have the same number of rows.

This has really helped me. And i think im getting the hang of it but a little stuck.
Using your “keeping it simple” outline above can you help me with this?
=COUNTIFS(count the VALUE of cells in column D if, in Column C they contain ‘Larry’ and, if in column A, they are also for the month of MAY)
Using your image above, lets pretend for a moment Larry sold 10 units on May 5th and 8 units on May 22, the Answer in this statement would be 18
Thoughts?
I tried this
=COUNTIFS(Sheet1!K:K,”6/30/2015″,Sheet1!B:B,”Larry”)+COUNTIFS(Sheet1!E:E,”=>1″)
But that just counts all 6/30/2015 and all larrys.

Hi Joshua,
If you want to add up the units then you need a SUMIFS formula like this:
SUMIFS is explained here and SUMIFS referencing dates is explained here.

I’ve used the steps above to try and set up a simple overview sheet but I get an error:
A value used in the formula is of the wrong data type
The formula is:
=COUNTIFS(Sept!D3:D500,”1st”, Sept!I3:L500,”Offer Accepted”)
The data in the cells I’m looking at are all formatted as ‘general’
Catalin Bombea
Hi Kate,
The COUNTIFS function expects that each additional range must have the same number of rows and columns as the criteria_range1 argument (The ranges do not have to be adjacent to each other). The problem is that in your formula, criteria_range1 has 1 column D3:D500, but the second criteria_range2 has 4 columns: I3:L500. You have to add new criterias for each column: =COUNTIFS(Sept!D3:D500,”1st”, Sept!I3:I500,”Offer Accepted”, Sept!J3:J500,”Offer Accepted”, Sept!K3:K500,”Offer Accepted”, Sept!L3:L500,”Offer Accepted”)
Note that only if each cell in I:L columns contains the criteria: ”Offer Accepted” will be counted. For example, if D3 contains “1st”, the row will be counted only if I3, J3, K3 and L3 contains ”Offer Accepted”.
If you want a count if D3 contains “1st” and at least one of the I3, J3, K3, L3 cells has the second criteria, you need another approach, the countifs formula will not work.

I am trying to add exceptions to my formula =COUNTIF(G9:G45,”Yes”)/COUNTIF(G9:G45,””) but as the first exception is to ignore blank cells the second needs to be COUNTIF(G9:G45,”N/a”)
This formula does not allow me to include the second exception.

That should be =COUNTIF(G9:G45,”Yes”)/COUNTIF(G9:G45,””) and the next statement to add is COUNTIF(G9:G45,”N/a”)

Unsure why it would not allow me to add the full formula, I was trying to include the for exceptions however I have now resolved this simply by taking the blanks away and no longer needing to account for them. Sometimes the obvious answer is just too obvious.

Your formula references a range X2:X16. I’m not sure what is in this column or why it’s in your formula. If my formula above doesn’t work then please send us a sample file via the Help Desk so we can see your question in context.
Thanks,

I am counting for instances where status is either Approved OR Implemented, AND Date Received by CAFGB is less than or equal to end of the month of a date in header in row 48 (which is 1st of that month) AND Validation Start Date is either NULL OR in the following month. I am using curly braces for OR condition – along with SUM.
Following works, but it is too long:
=SUM(COUNTIFS(Data[[#Data],[CAFGB Status]:[CAFGB Status]],{“Approved”,”Implemented”}, Data[[#Data],[Date Received by CAFGB]:[Date Received by CAFGB]],”<=" & EOMONTH(AG$48,0), Data[[#Data],[Validation Start Date]:[Validation Start Date]], "")) + SUM(COUNTIFS(Data[[#Data],[CAFGB Status]:[CAFGB Status]],{"Approved","Implemented"}, Data[[#Data],[Date Received by CAFGB]:[Date Received by CAFGB]],"” & EOMONTH(AG$48,0)))
I was thinking that it should work with following shortened expression, but it doesn’t:
=SUM(COUNTIFS(Data[[#Data],[CAFGB Status]:[CAFGB Status]],{“Approved”,”Implemented”}, Data[[#Data],[Date Received by CAFGB]:[Date Received by CAFGB]],”” & EOMONTH(AG$48,0)}))
What am I doing wrong in the shorter version? What can I do to make it work?
Catalin Bombea
Hi,
Can you please upload a sample workbook with your data structure used in this formula? It will be a lot easier to understand the situation and test the solution.
Until then, you can try a general solution:
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$1:$A$10={"Approved","Any"})*($B$1:$B$10<=EOMONTH(TODAY(),0))*C1:C10)Use our Help Desk system.

Hi Mynda,
I using a formula =COUNTIFS(‘6-26-52 Weeks’!G4:G52,”=Mike”,’6-26-52 Weeks’!J4:J52,”=April”,’6-26-52 Weeks’!Q4:Q52,”=Y”‘6-26-52 Weeks’!R4:R52,”=True”)
It doesnt count “Y” from Col Q of all “Mike” in col G with conditions that J should have “April” and Col R should be “True”. It doesnt even throw an error in excel either.
please can you advise.

Catalin Bombea
Hi Rachana,
The Months column is in fact a date value, formatted as “mmmm” to show only the month name. You cannot compare a value to a text string.
Use
=SUMPRODUCT((A3:A6="Mike")*(D3:D6="Y")*(F3:F6="True")*(MONTH(E3:E6)=1))to convert dates to months numbers.

I have a spreadsheet where Column B contains the numbers either 1, 2, or 3. I want to count the rows that contain a “1” in Column B if there is a corresponding “x” in Column C or D or E and I only want to count it once (because it could contain an x in C and/or D and/or E). Can someone help me?
Mynda Treacy
Hi Janine,
You can use this formula:
Entered with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER as it’s an array formula.
Kind regards,

janine
Thanks for the help– but when I input the formula I get the error “a value used in the formula is of the wrong data type”
janine
Mynda Treacy
Hi Janine,
Perhaps your ‘numbers’ in column B are actually text. You can tell by trying to SUM them. If you get an error then they’re text. You’ll need to convert them to numbers.
If that doesn’t work then I’ll need to see your workbook which you can send me via the Help Desk.
Kind regards,

I’m so glad you still check this for comments, I have a weird issue.
I’m using =COUNTIFS($O$1:$O$130,”=1*”,$R$1:$R$130,”Yes”) and it’s being picky about the O1:O130 range.
If the value in O includes a letter e.g. 1711A it will get counted, however if the value in O does not contain a letter e.g. 1711 it does not get counted! What am I missing?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Eric,
1711A is interpreted by excel as a text string. 1711 is seen as a number, with numbers you have to deal in a different way.
Try:
=SUMPRODUCT((LEFT($O$1:$O$130,1)=”1″)*($R$1:$R$130=”Yes”))
It will work on both text and numbers.

Hi,
My cells contain one of the four things listed below
1) random dates
2) the letter N
3) the letter I
4) N/A
I’m trying to write a formula that will give me a percentage of the cells that contain dates out of the total number of cells that I have selected. I would also like to exclude from the percentage listed above all cells containing N/A. How would l do that?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Kyle,
Assuming that your range is in column A, starting from row 1, use this formula in cell B1:
=CELL(“format”,A1) and copy it down as needed.
The formula:

Hello I’m doing the countif formulas correctly.
I could swear to you but it’s telling me that the correct answer is 0.
And I know it’s not, because there are certain products, there’s a few but it keeps telling me it’s 0.
I have no clue why, but do you think you can help me with this? Please.

Jo Case
Hi there
I find your tutorials really helpful. However I’m stuck on a problem that I can’t seem to find a solution to. In the first example above consider you want to know the number of times Doug sold 8 units in the month of January. I have a similar table where I want to know how many decisions a staff member has made in a certain month. The month is found in the same date structure as in your table. As soon as I’m adding the MONTH function in, I’m struggling to find the solution. I’ve tried arrays, and the straight COUNTIFS. Any suggestions? Cheers, Jo
Mynda Treacy
Hi Jo,
You need to give your COUNTIFS a date range that incorporates the month you’re counting. Here is a tutorial on SUMIFS using dates as critiera. The logic for the date range is the same for COUNITFS.
Let me know if you get stuck.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
BAM
Hello
I am working in a table with 9 columns and 50 rows. All cells in the table have COUNTIFS formulas based on the column identifier. I get accurate results from cells in all columns but the last 2 (8 and 9) and I’m not sure why. I feel that the formulas are designed correctly but only “0” is returned in all cells in the last two columns.
Is something wrong with the formula? Is there a limit on COUNTIFS forumlas that can be applied in a worksheet? Have you seen/heard of this before?
Column 1= COUNTIFS(Input!$P$4:P30,”=”&$C$6,Input!$G$4:G30,”=”&B9)
Column 4=COUNTIFS(Input!$P$4:P30,”=”&$F$6,Input!$G$4:G30,”=”&B9,Input!$AC$4:AC30,”=”&”Major Issue”)
Column 6= COUNTIFS(Input!$G$4:G30,”=”&B9,Input!$AC$4:AC30,”=Not Applicable-Issue has insignificant impact”)
Column 8= COUNTIFS(Input!$G$4:G30,”=”&B9,Input!$AC$4:AC30,”=Not Applicable — Issue has no impact”)
Column 9 = =COUNTIFS(Input!$G$4:G30,”=”&B9,Input!$AC$4:AC30,”=Not Applicable — Other”)
Mynda Treacy
Hello again Tina,
Looking at your formulas I would expect Columns 6, 8 and 9 to return zero. The last criteria in each formula is stated with an = inside the double quotes. Now it’s possible this is correct but I suspect not and this is why:
Your formula in column 6 says count the values in G4:G30 that = what ever is in cell B9 AND where the values in AC4:AC30 contain the text =Not Applicable-Issue has insignificant impact
i.e. the equals sign is in front of the text Not Applicable-Issue has insignificant impact like this:
=Not Applicable-Issue has insignificant impact
I suspect the formula should be more like this:
If that’s not the problem, send me the workbook via the help desk and I’ll take a look.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Tina
Hello-
I have a table with 9 columns and 50 rows. All cells have countifs formulas that accurately represent the reference data with the exception of the last 2 columnns. The last 2 columns are not pulling in any data even though the countifs formulas are sturectured exactly the same.
Is there a column limit per worksheet? Am I doing something wrong?
Mynda Treacy
Hi Tina,
Perhaps you can send me the workbook via the help desk so I can see the data you’re working with.

Haitham
HI
is it possible to use a function for count all the cells in a column except the cells those are “empty and have a dates”
Thanks
MikeBanawa
Hello Haitham,
Yes it is possible. You can use a combination of count formulas for your conditions.
But first of all, does your data contain only letters or does it have numbers as well?
I’ll assume your data contains only: Empty cells, Dates and Words/letters/Alphanumeric
Let’s say that all of your data are in Column A1 to A10:
Since dates are numbers and COUNTA will not count empty cells you can combine both formulas by using a simple subtraction:
This formula will return the number of cells that only contains letters.
you can also experiment on the formula =COUNTBLANK which literally counts blank cells in a range.
If you want a bit more detailed explanation on the mentioned formulas, we have a blog post about Excel COUNT, COUNTA and COUNTBLANK Functions. Just follow this link: https://www.myonlinetraininghub.com/excel-count-counta-and-countblank-functions
Hope this Helps. Thanks!
Mike
Haitham
Thankd for your efforts!
Jenny
Very helpful page – Thank you! However, I do have a question…
In cell [B12] I have the formula: =COUNTIF(B2:B8, A10)
so count, if cells within the range B2-B8 (then C2-C8 etc) contain the value in A10, (then A11, then A12).
I want to copy this formula across and down, so:
[B13]=COUNTIF(B2:B8, A13) then [C13]=COUNTIF(C2:C8, A13) etc…
[B14]=COUNTIF(B2:B8, A14) then [C14]=COUNTIF(C2:C8, A14) etc…
[B15]=COUNTIF(B2:B8, A15) then [C15]=COUNTIF(C2:C8, A15) etc…
However, when I copy across, the vertical range is correct but the reference cell also increments by one column:
[C13]=COUNTIF(C2:C8, B13) then [C13]=COUNTIF(D2:D8, C13) etc
How do I rectify this? It will be so long winded to type these in manually as I have a few to reference.
Jenny
OMG Sorry – I think I misunderstood the $ thing – I tried it and it works. Fiddly but I am not sure Excel will copy correctly in both directions. I may just have to use =COUNTIF(B2:B8,$A$10) and =COUNTIF(B2:B8,$A$11) etc for all rows before copying across… Sorry to have bothered you!
Mynda Treacy
No problem, Jenny. Glad you figured it out yourself 🙂

Hello Mynda,
Is it possible to use COUNTIFS in this fashion:
COUNTIFS(b1:b20,criteria,n1:y20,criteria)
I am getting a #value! error and believe that it must be because of the n1:y20 range. Am I only able to compare single columns?
Thank you in advance for your time,

Carlo Estopia
Hi Gaurav,
First, it has a sheet called Tickets Tracking 2013
Second, In this sheet, you are counting if
Ranges G7 to G71 has or equal to 3
and
Ranges H7 to H71 has or equal to 2013
First Formula:COUNTIFS(‘Tickets Tracking 2013′!$G$7:$G$71, 3, ‘Tickets Tracking 2013′!$H$7:$H$71, 2013)
Third, You are adding –see the plus (+) sign — the result in the second step (first formula) to the fourth step(second formula):
Fourth, You are counting if
Ranges G7 to G73 has or equal to 3
and
Ranges H7 to H73 has or equal to 2013

Hi Mynda,
You make everything sound so easy!!! So I have a spreadsheet that has dates from 7/1/12 – 2/28/13 and I am trying to count how many entries were made for each month but there were several entries that were made on each day, e.g. 5 on 7/2/12, 9 on 7/19/12, etc. but when I use the COUNTIFS formula of COUNTIFS(B2:B1400, “>=7/1/2012”,B2:B1400,”<=7/31/12") it seems to only be counting the dates once. How can I get it to count each entry instead of each date? THANK YOU in advance.
Carlo Estopia
Hi Pam,
Try to check your cell format. It might not be dates.
You may send it also through HELP DESK so we can have a good look at it.

Hi Mynda,
Really appreciate your clear instructions on the use of the excel formulas – thanks!
However, when I apply the COUNTIFS formula to the following data I just receive a “0” all the time. Here’s the example data and the formula I’ve written (I’m trying to determine how many entries for each Location there are for each Process):
Column B – Process (multiple entries of each of the following)
Search
Service
Access
Column E – Location (multiple entries of each of the following)
T1
T2
Formula:- =COUNTIFS(E2:E1300,T1,B2:B1300,Service)
As I mentioned, the formula continues to just provide “0”.
Appreciate any help you can provide.
Many thanks,
Ross
Carlo Estopia
Hi Ross,
First,
Your formula’s criteria don’t have the double quotes(“) and equal(=) signs:
=COUNTIFS(E2:E1300,”=T1″,B2:B1300,”=Service”)
Second,
It also looks as if you’re trying to provide two criteria for counting; that is,
you likely want to satisfy that Location must be T1 and Process is Service.
And looking at your Example, none would satisfy that. That is, If I understood it
correctly that you’re trying to use this mock data of yours and there no entries after E3 and B4, respectively.
I could see though that your formula reaches 1300.
Please do clarify what are the criteria that you’re really trying to have here.
Send your file to Help Desk for a complete picture of your scenario. Thus we can
have a better look at it.
Sincerely,
CarloE
Subash
Dear Mynda,
First of all thank you for such a wonderful site which helps us so very tremendously.
I have a workbook with several worksheets in it. In the worksheets in different columns I have a reference number. The reference number should not be more than 2 times. Say, once debit and once credit. It is never repeated on the same sheet. I want to use COUNTIFS formula but it always gives me 0, but if I use it only on one sheet it gives me 1, which is correct.
For example in sheet “SUBASH” column “J:J” has the reference numbers and in sheet “MYNDA” column “J:J” has the reference numbers. In Sheet “MYNDA” in cell k2 if I put this formula COUNTIFS(J:J,J2) I get 1 which is correct, as the reference in J2 appears only once in this sheet in the column J:J. When I change the formula to COUNTIFS(J:J,J2,’SUBASH’!J:J,J2) I get the answer 0, where as it should be 2 as the value in J2 in MYNDA also appears in the column J:J in the sheet SUBASH (not necessarily in J2 in sheet SUBASH).
If I get the correct answer, I should be able to drag the formula down so that I get the same result from J3, J4 and so on.
Above I have mentioned only two sheets, but in my workbook I have many more.
Kindly advise how should I go about getting the correct result.
Thanks and best regards,
Subash
Subash
Dear Mynda,
I worked my way out by using the SUMPRODUCT((J:J=J2)+(’SUBASH’!J:J=’MYNDA’!J2)) this formula gives me the correct answer 2. But since I have many sheets, have to write the formula for 20 times in each sheet, would appreciate if there is a shorter formula to capture the data from all the sheets.
Thanks and best regards,
Subash

Hope you can help me with this. 🙂
Carlo Estopia
Hi Jhosel,
Your formula is good except for the LEFT FUNCTION part. I hope you’ll agree if we would avoid that complication and instead use a wildcard search.
here it is:
=COUNTIFS(A2:A7,”>=30″,B2:B7,”=2S*”)
result : 1
=COUNTIFS(A2:A7,”>=30″,B2:B7,”=1S*”)

Tried a COUNTIFS formula and it is not returning a number just a value error.

Will the formula work if some of the cells in column AC are blank?

Hi Karen,
I your second range B10:B2831 is a different size to the first range AC10:AC2832. You need to make them both the same size.

Trish
Hi, wow…thank you for your time here on your website. You explain things perfectly! I recently decided I wanted to learn what excel is all about instead of feaing it and saying “no I don’t like excel”. I am trying to learn how to track expiring certificates at work. Exp: DL from John Doe expires 10/25/2016; next cell would read how many days left until expiration. I also saw how it could be have a color with it. It could turn yellow within 30 days of expiration and red once the day has come and passed.
Again thank you for your time, I hope you can point me in the right direction :)!
Mynda Treacy
Hi Trish,
Thank you for your kind words 🙂
You can use the DATEDIF function to calculate the number of days between two dates (your expiry date and today’s date).
You can then use Conditional Formatting to detect if the date is <= 30 days and colour the cell yellow. I hope that helps. Kind regards, Mynda.

how can i count a column but stop counting if data goes to another column on excel

Hi Elijah,
If your data goes into another column then it won’t be in the range of the first column and therefore won’t be counted. I must be missing something? Perhaps you can send me an example.

hi
plz can you help me .
i want a formula to write text or number in column A ( example ) and a number in column B then it will paste the text in next column ( 2 or 4 ) according to number i write .
for example :
in column A ( welcome ) and in column B ( 3) so i want ( welcome ) to appear in column C,D & E ( ONCE ONLY) .
AND IF I write 4 then in C,D,E & F .
Mynda Treacy
Hi Saeed,
That’s a good question. Here’s a formula you can use in cell C1 then copy across to D, E and F:

Dee
goodmorning, thanks for the reponse. it is still not working.
The formula needs to meet both criteria 1) wrong status AND 2) CPSUB OR B7SUB OR E9SUB.
It is saying to try DCOUNTA when you click on the function .
I really appreciate your help.
Have agreat day,
Dee
Mynda Treacy
Oh, sorry.
Try:
=SUM(COUNTIFS(‘RAZ00302′!R:R,”WRONG STATUS”,’RAZ00302’!T:T,{“CPSUB”,”B7SUB”,”E9SUB”}))
Enter formula with CTRL+SHIFT+Enter as it is an array. You should be able to see curly brackets at either end of the formula when viewed from the formula bar. Like this:
{=SUM(COUNTIFS(‘RAZ00302′!R:R,”WRONG STATUS”,’RAZ00302’!T:T,{“CPSUB”,”B7SUB”,”E9SUB”}))}
Note: when you copy and paste the formula from the web page you may need to type in the double quotes and apostrophes, as sometimes they are italicised on the web and this won’t work in Excel.
If that doesn’t work I must be missing something so please send me your file by completing a Help Desk ticket on the contact us page.
BTW; I’m not sure what you mean by “It is saying to try DCOUNTA when you click on the function”. But hopefully the above formula will work now.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Dee
hey Mynda,
This is work related so sending the document would probablly be a bad idea. I am sorry. It now works better but is ignoring the last 2 criteria :B7SUB E9SUB. I am so grateful for all your help. You sure do know a bunch about formulas.
have a good night
Dee
Mynda Treacy
I understand. Usually what people do is send me an edited version of their Excel file thus removing any sensitive information. It’s always an option if you get stuck.
Dee
hi. was unable to get it to work and could not get file to upload.
It counts the first item in the array but not the last 2. B7SUB E9SUB .
I guess I’ll just keep trying. appreciate your trying tohelp.

Hi, I have a question on countifs.
My data will be to count information like age (between 7-15), and its city.
=COUNTIF(A:A;”<=15")-COUNTIF(A:N7356;"<7") gives me the correct total of age between 7-15
But when I entered
=COUNTIFS(A:A;COUNTIF(A:A;"<=15")-COUNTIF(A:A;"<7");A:A;B)
excel 2007 gave me error. Will it be possible to count it this way? thanks.
PS:
B = a cell contains city name
Mynda Treacy
Hi,
You need to do it like this:
=COUNTIFS(A:A,">=7",A:A,"<=15",B:B,"City Name")
Kind regards,
Mynda.

hello,
I have a formula problem.
I need to count 2 columns, with 2 different criteria, on a different spreadsheet, and have the results end on my last page for graphing purposes.
=COUNTIFS(‘RAZ00302’!R:R,”WRONG STATUS”)
Thia is tracking one of the columns on the razo302 sheet but I also need to track column t. 3 items in column t need to be picked: CPSUB, B7SUB, AND E9SUB
PLEASE ADVISE ASAP—I AM SO EXCITED THAT i FOUND YOUR WEBSITE.
thank you!!!
Mynda Treacy
Hi Dee,
Thanks for your kind words.
Try:
=COUNTIFS(‘RAZ00302′!R:R,”WRONG STATUS”)+SUM(COUNTIF(‘RAZ00302′!T:T,{“CPSUB”,”B7SUB”,”E9SUB”}))
The part in curly brackets {} is an array. Go here for more on Excel array formulas.
I hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Mynda.

I rephrase my previos question to this: Why do you need a sumproduct function at the start of the formula?
Mynda Treacy
Hi Gunnar,
The SUMPRODUCT formula is an array formula (although you don’t have to enter it using CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER), and when used with COUNTIF and INDIRECT as I have done above for Mitchel, it returns the COUNT of multiple sheets and multiple criteria.
If you’re having difficulty counting across multiple sheets then an easier solution is to put a COUNTIFS formula on each sheet and then SUM those results. If you put your COUNTIFS formula in the same cell in each sheet then summing them is quick and easy.
To SUM the same cell on multiple sheets:
1. In the cell you want your summary type =SUM(
2. Click on the first sheet tab and select the cell you want to sum.
3. Hold down the SHIFT key and click on the last sheet.
4. Press ENTER
Excel will sum the same cell for every sheet between the first sheet you selected and the last.
I hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Gunnar
Dear Mynda,
I am trying to use your formula abouve for the countif on several sheets, but can’t get it to work, even if I copy it into an identical workbook.
Can you explain a bit more in detail the indirect function part of the formula, and why you use the type of signs you do:
“ ‘ ” & ” ‘ !B:B”
Thanks!
Mynda Treacy
Hi Gunnar,
I suspect when you copied the formula from the website into Excel the double quotes ” are not formatted correctly. In the webpage above they are italicised for some reason. Try typing them into Excel again. They should then be a regular font and your formula should work.
Alternatively you can download the workbook (see links in the post above) and use the example in the file.
The INDIRECT function, as explained here creates a reference to a cell or range of cells. When referencing other sheets you need to format the reference with apostrophes.
For example references to other worksheets must be formatted like this:
=INDIRECT(” ‘your_sheet_name’!H34″)
Text in double quotes is interpreted by Excel as text (as opposed to an operator or other criteria).
The ampersand (&) joins that text together. So Excel reads ” ‘ ” & “!B:B” as (note spaces inside double quotes are for clarity. In Excel you would leave the spaces out):
‘!B:B
Effectively ignoring the double quotes and ampersand. You can read more about joining text together in my CONCATENATE tutorial.
I hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Katie
Hi,
I am trying to write a countifs that says if column b is in a certain date range, count it, which I have written, but I need a second criteria that says if column has one of five location names (city, state), then count it.
Is it possible to write a countif with an “or” criteria imbedded?
I have countifs(…..E:E,OR(‘Location’!B1,’Location’!D1,’Location’!E1,’Location’!G1,’Location’!H1))
But that didn’t work. I have also tried writing out the location names instead of selecting them from a list, but that didn’t work either…
Any ideas?
Katie
I am trying to write a countifs formula to say if anything in this column is between these dates, count it. Here’s what I have so far =countifs(Q:Q, and(“=1/1/2012”), ….etc)
I want it to say if the contents in column Q are between jan 1 and jan 31, 2012, then count it.
Any advise? Thanks!
Mynda Treacy
Hi Katie,
I find dates used in criteria a bit frustrating and so I tend to use the serial number version of the date in my formula rather than typing in the text version. e.g.
=COUNTIFS(Q:Q,”>=40909″,Q:Q,”<=40939")
Where 40909 is the serial number for 1 Jan 2012, and 40939 is the serial number for 31 Jan 2012.
I hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Katie
Great, thank you!
Jeff
Hi Mynda,
I am creating a dashboard report using Excel 2010. I am using Conditional formatting and a countcolor functions on the sheet – these all work perfectly. I am having issues with my countif(s)? and hope you can help.
My range (I8:AM8) represents individual project milestones being “Complete” or “N/A”. I want my following countif to total the count of “Complete” and “N/A” milestones and divide that total by the total number of milestones.
=COUNTIF(I8:AM8,”Complete”)/31
HOW do I add the “N/A” to this formula? I’ve looked on-line for an hour and asked several folks without luck.
Cheers,
Jeff
Mynda Treacy
Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your question.
There are a few ways you could do this. Here are two:
1. If you want to use COUNTIF then you’d need to add two COUNTIF functions together and then divide by 31
So, your formula would look like this:
=(COUNTIF(I8:AM8,”Complete”)+COUNTIF(I8:AM8,”N/A”))/31
2. Or you could use the SUMPRODUCT function like this:
=SUMPRODUCT((I8:AM8=”COMPLETE”)+(I8:AM8=”N/A”))/31
Click here for more on SUMPRODUCT.
If your total number of milestones is variable (i.e. the number 31) you could use a COUNTA function in it’s place to count all cells in the range I8:AM8. So your formulas would look like this:
=(COUNTIF(I8:AM8,”Complete”)+COUNTIF(I8:AM8,”N/A”))/COUNTA(I8:AM8)
and
=SUMPRODUCT(((I8:AM8=”COMPLETE”)+(I8:AM8=”N/A”)))/COUNTA(I8:AM8)
I hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Mynda.

Thank you very much Mynda for considering my question. I had got the correct results watching your other helpful hints on Youtube and hence did not check for your response and sorry for the same. But now I come across another problem because my boss wants to consider End Dates of employee as well. Suppose he joins 01 September 2011 and his End Date is 31 December 2015, what could be the changes that should be made in my formula. Please make the necessary changes in this one (=COUNTIFS(‘Master List’!$E$3:$E$3210,’Manpower Plan’!$C5,’Master List’!$K$3:$K$3210,’Manpower Plan’!$B5,’Master List’!$N$3:$N$3210,”<="&$TE$2,'Master List'!$O$3:$O$3210,TE$4,'Master List'!$AC$3:$AC$3210,$E$3).
Mynda Treacy
Hi Ibraheem,
Remember, each criteria you add to a COUNITFS function is considered AND. e.g.
=COUNTIFS(critera_range_1,criteria_1, AND criteria_range_2,criteria_2…..and so on if required)
So, to modify your formula you just need to add another reference to your criteria range (the Master List) and the criteria of <=31 Dec 2015 like this:
=COUNTIFS(‘Master List’!$E$3:$E$3210,’Manpower Plan’!$C5,’Master List’!$K$3:$K$3210,’Manpower Plan’!$B5,’Master List’!$N$3:$N$3210,”<="&$TE$2,'Master List'!$O$3:$O$3210,TE$4,'Master List'!$AC$3:$AC$3210,$E$3,’Master List’!$K$3:$K$3210,<=TE$5)
Where TE$5 contains the date 31 Dec 2015.
I hope this makes sense. If not you can send me your Excel workbook and I can send you a specific solution. Just complete a ticket on the help desk which you'll find a link to on the contact us page.
Kind regards,
Mynda.

Hi Mynda,
I have been watching your helpful tutorials in excel these days and have been using them satisfactorily to process our company’s 5 year Manpower Cost Plan.
I have columns by Name September 2011, October 2011….
I want to place under each month no. of employees who joined before that month.
Can you help how COUNTIFS work in this?
Thanks.
Mynda Treacy
Hi Ibraheem,
Thank you for your question. If I understand correctly you should be able to just use a COUNTA function (assuming your columns have employee names. but use COUNT if they’re listed as numbers). And assuming your month labels start in column A (jan), and you had already populated columns A-D (Jan-Apr), with D (Apr) being the current month, and you wanted to know the number of employees who joined from Jan – Mar your formula would be:
COUNTA($A:$C)
Note: this will sum the whole of columns A & C. If you’ve got cells in these columns that you don’t want to sum then you’ll need to put the exact range in e.g. COUNTA($A$2:$C$500)
I hope this helps you out.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Riyaz Iqbal
Hi Mynda,
I tried this for example for practice and encountered 2 problems.
1. COUNTA($A:$C) counts my headers (names of months too). Is there some way I can count entries in the whole columns except headers?
2. What if I want to maintain a running count of employees? I tried OFFSET function but wasn’t able to get it right. I added a “Employee count” column to the right.
COUNTA(A: column to the left of Employee count) is what I tried. For “Column to the left of Employee count” I tried OFFSET(D:D,0,-1,height,1) I am facing problems with height here. I don’t know how many employee entries will be there in future.
How can I solve this height issue when I know that the column I am interested in is of dynamic height?

I have prepared My excel in this manner :
Column A Column B Column C Column D ……….
ORDER # OPERATOR QC Int. Error External Error
22120205 Nancy Chikie – –
22120207 Alex Kaushal 1 –
And so on……..
I have kept this list under one sheet named as order logged
Now I have prepared another sheet to find their daily productivity
Column A Column B Column C Column D
S.No Name 1 June 2 June ……….
1 Nancy 25 20
2 Alex 16 30
I have made a use of this formula to calculate =COUNTIF($’ORDERS LOGGED’.$B$2:$B$1000;B2)
So i would get the count of file Alex has prepared with a help of this formula which calculate data from order logged sheet.
????? But Now there are few order where in there are sub files in it say 22120207 ……is a one order but it consist of 7 other files ( with certain changes in same type) in it and Alex work on these too under the same order but his count of order is consider as one only….
when he worked on 8 files in total under one order.Which proves the report is incorrect.
So what can be done??????????
I tried this…….
Column A Column B Column C Column D ……….
ORDER # OPERATOR QC Int. Error External Error
22120207 Alex Kaushal 1 –
Alex
Alex
Alex
Alex
Alex like this kept on added his name but this is tedious….which helps to get correct count but I want to know some short way….as there is situation when in one order there are 100 files as well….Hope this will make more sense to the kind of difficulty I have.
I would really appreciate & would be glad to receive your help.

Hi Mynda,
I want to know about this \ suppose there are 7 members..A/B/C/D…..
20 files are shared between them. Now I able to know how many file are prepared by C lets say 5 but if in these 5 files, there were 2 files with Copy Change, so in total he worked on 7 files. Will then this Count-if formula will work or what would the alternative?
Names
A 4
B 6
c 5 two were having sub file (copy change file).
=COUNTIF($C$2:$C$7,$B12) this help me to know that c appears 5 times but does not give me correct productivity of him ?
Please help.
Thanks,
Kaushal Verma.
Mynda
Hi Kaushal,
Thanks for your question. I’m not clear as to whether you want Excel to track this data (whether C prepared, or copy/changed a file) or are you keeping track and entering the data and then just needing to count it?
I’ll assume the latter:
Firstly in order for Excel to count the data, you need to record it in a format it can read. If you want to use the COUNTIF then you would need to lay your data our something like this:
Column A Column B Column C
Name File Name Action (prepare, copy, change)
C xyz.xlsx prepare
A abc.xlsx prepare
C abc.xlsx change
You could then use a COUNTIFS function:
=COUNTIFS(A1:A3,”C”)
This would count every instance of “C” in the range A1:A3.
If this isn’t what you meant please go to ‘contact us’ and log a ticket on the help desk with your file so I can see exatly what you mean.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Mynda
Hi Glen,
I’m not 100% clear on how your data is laid out but I’ll give it a shot:
Can you not use a COUNTIF like this?:
in an empty cell in your workbook =COUNTIF(H$3:H$13,”Jan”)
and in another cell in your workbook =COUNTIF(H$3:H$13,”Feb”)
If that doesn’t ‘stop it hurting’ please log a ticket on the help desk and upload your file or an example of your data so I can see exactly what you’re trying to do.
Kind regards,
Mynda.
Lamech
i have a similar challenge; COUNTIF(J5:J106,”Left”)
but unfortunately it does not count all the texts in that range it counts only 1/3 of the total what might be the problem?
regards
Mynda Treacy
Hi Lamech,
I’m not sure but unless the the text in column J only says ‘left’ then it should count them all.
If there is other text with the word ‘left’ then you can append wild cards to pick up anything with ‘left’ in the cell like this:
More on Excel wildcards here.
Kind regards,
Mynda.

I amy trying to simulate count distinct using a formula I found this morning on google: =SUMPRODUCT((H$3:H$13\)/COUNTIF(H$3:H$13,H$3:H$13&\))
I need to vary this such that I get distinct counts by month. Column A has the month as Jan, Feb…
=SUMPRODUCT((H$3:H$13\)/COUNTIFs(H$3:H$13,H$3:H$13&\,G$3:G$13,=&A3)) does not exactly give me what I need. Column H is a series of names. I want a count of distinct names in Jan, another count in Feb….
Any thoughts?
Please make it stop hurting…. I’ve been at it for 5 hours now, trying various combinations of functions in varying orders with no joy…

I am using the formula countifs as used in the second example, my trouble is when I am trying to get a total covering more than one sheet. Each sheet layout is the same but receive #value error on previous attempts. I am expecting to get the total over 30 sheets.
Mynda
Hi Mitchell,
You need to use SUMPRODUCT to do a 3d COUNTIFS across multiple worksheets. Using the example in my COUNTIFS tutorial above:
=SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIFS(INDIRECT(“‘”&$G$1:$G$4&”‘!B:B”),”Central”,
INDIRECT(“‘”&$G$1:$G$4&”‘!C:C”),”Doug”))
Where G1:G4 contains a list of your sheet names. You will need to put these sheet names somewhere in the worksheet you want your COUNT, and then amend the range in the formula above to suit.
You can also replace “Central” and “Doug” with cell references but remember to drop the “” and just enter the cell reference by itself.
Note: the reference to the column B:B and C:C assumes you want to count the whole column. If not just enter the exact range e.g. B2:B7 and C2:C7.
Alternatively, insert a separate COUNTIFS formula on each sheet, and then SUM the result on each sheet. e.g. =SUM(‘sheet 1:sheet 30’!D2) where D2 is the cell that contains the COUNTIFS formula on each sheet.
I hope one of these helps. Let me know how you go.
Regards,
Mynda.

The following question was sent in to me by Helen, but I thought I’d post my reply here for all to see:
Q. I want to count how many cells contain values between two numbers eg -0.5 and -0.25, How can I do this in excel? I use the countif function for specific values but I don’t know how to count between specific values.
A. In Excel 2007 You can use the COUNTIFS formula as follows:
=COUNTIFS(A2:A14,”>-0.5″,A2:A14,”<-0.25") In prior versions of Excel there are various ways to accomplish this, but probably the simplest is an array formula as follows =SUM((A2:A14>-0.5)*(A2:A14<=-0.25)) you have to press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER all together to enter the SUM formula as an array. When you do this correctly the formula looks like this in the formula bar: {=SUM((A2:A14>-0.5)*(A2:A14<=-0.25))} I won't go into the logic of the array formula here, other than to say that when a SUM formula is entered as an array it gives you a COUNT instead of a SUM.
