Using SUMIF to exclude values
Hi Guys, I would like to use SUMIF, if possible, to add up a column but to exclude values when a corresponding cell contains the text "In Flight Relief". Can anybody help?
- Sep 22, 2018can also reference a cell (Z2):
=SUMIF(Z2:Z10,"<>"&Z2,M2:M10)
where Z2 is the controlling text.
be sure that the text is consistent in all controlling cells - otherwise it won't function properly.
"In Flight Relief" is not sames as "In Flight Relief" nor "Inflightrelief"..
If Z2 is deleted then the sum will be zero.... because the controlling cell is now blank.

if you are adding a column use =SUM(range)
this will sum only the numbers excluding strings or text cell..
