COUNTIFS using criteria from both column A and B
I can't figure out how to combine the formulas =COUNTIF(B:B,"IHC*")+COUNTIF(B:B,"SS*") and =COUNTIFS(A:A,">1330",A:A,"<1431") I want to only count the criteria in column A if the criteria in colu...
Hi Anna,
You probably need to do 2 COUNTIFS given you want to count IHC* or SS*
=COUNTIFS(A:A,">1330",A:A,"<1431",B:B,"IHC*") + COUNTIFS(A:A,">1330",A:A,"<1431",B:B,"SS*")

=COUNTIFS(A:A,">1330",A:A,"<1431",B:B,"IHC*") + COUNTIFS(A:A,">1330",A:A,"<1431",B:B,"SS*")
Or bit more compact =SUM(COUNTIFS(B:B,{"SS*";"IHC*"},A:A,">1330",A:A,"<1431"))
Thank you! I don't understand this one, but it gave me the same result as above! :smileyhappy:
Anna, that is the imitation of OR condition. In brief, COUNTIFS on array of conditions also generates an array, after that you just take the sum of it. Like SUM({5,7})=12
