SUMIFs

Hi. If i have the following formula for instance SUMIFS($D$3:$D$2000,$A$3:$A$2000,"*"&F3&"*"), and It brings #N/A for some result, how can i remove the #N/A, as the "<>#N/A" add on, which i put at the end, doesn't seem to work, unless i've added it to the wrong area in the formula. Any advise? Thank you

  • sinadanaee  ...  The following works fine for me.  See the attached Excel file.

     

    A1:

    =SUMIFS(D3:D13, D3:D13, "<>#N/A", A3:A13, "*"&F3&"*")

     

    NOTE:  No need for the condition A3:A13,"<>#N/A".  It is redundant.

     

     

     

    PS.... I tested with the F3 condition first, and it appears that order of the conditions does not matter.

     

    Aside.... I would prefer to avoid the #N/A errors in the data, in the first place.

    Depends on Excel version, on 365 or 2011 that could be

    =SUM( IFNA( $D$3:$D$2000, 0) * ISNUMBER(SEARCH( F3, $A$3:$A$2000 ) ) )
