Cant use MAXIFS for date range

Hi all,   I have some trouble using the MAXIFS function to sort out for example the latest invoice in each project. What am I doing wrong, I get 0 or 1900-01-00 as an answer.

    Exceed I suspect that the dates in column Q are in fact texts. So, MAXIFS always returns 0. If the cell with that formula happens to be formatted as a date you get 0 January 1900.

    Use Text to columns from the Data ribbon to transform the date texts to real date values.
