Is there a formula for this?

Copper Contributor

I have a spreadsheet which shows the statuses in a partifular course (completed, not started, in progress) for a division which includes fifteen regions and over 1500 associates .  I need to find the number of associates in each region who are in a particular "status" for the course.  I know how to find out how many associates are in a specific region OR a specific status in the class using several differnt steps, but is there a formula which will take the number of associates in one region and count how many are in a specific "status" on the course and return that number?

Melissa, if you give a sample of how your data is structured (up to 10 rows) it'll be much easier to answer.

Melissa, sorry, still not sure i understood you correctly. If you mean associate = a record in your table; and status means Do's and Don't when something like attached. Shall Store and Progress are be taken into account?

Sergei - each line represents one associate.  I need to get a count of how many associates in say PR07 (Region column) have the status of "Not Started" (The Do's and Don'ts ... column). 

 

Does that make sense?

When it likes in my file attached to previous message - you may use COUNTIF; or PivotTable, and not only. Depends on how you'd like to represent your figures
