Hello,

 

Here is my existing formula. This logic checks the Column K (rows through 2-14) for "Rej"

 

=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF($A$2:$A$14=A2,IF($D$2:$D$14="Final",IF($I$2:$I$14="C D w/ I",IF(ISERROR(SEARCH("Rej",$K$2:$K$14)),$E$2:$E$14)))),--$E$2:$E$14),$E$2:$E$14))

How would I remove the logic to check for "Rej" without impacting the rest of this formula?

If you want to remove the check for "Rej", then I think this would be your formula:

=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF($A$2:$A$14=A2,IF($D$2:$D$14="Final",IF($I$2:$I$14="C D w/ I",$E$2:$E$14))),--$E$2:$E$14),$E$2:$E$14))

But, it appears you are doing a conditional sum? If you have the sumifs function, then you might try this, I think it would be easier to follow:

=SUMIFS($E$2:$E$14,$A$2:$A$14,A2,$D$2:$D$14,"Final",$I$2:$I$14,"C D w/ I")

If, by chance, you don't have sumifs, then you could try this:

=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$2:$A$14=A2),--($D$2:$D$14="Final"),--($I$2:$I$14="C D w/ I"),$E$2:$E$14)

What I am trying to do is this (hopefully this will make sense):
If Column A has the same value, Column D = "Final" and Column I = "C D w/ I" then aggregate the values in Column E.
However, if the values in Column E have duplicate values, only aggregate one of these values. When Column E has different values, aggregate all of them when the other conditions are met. If no calculation can be performed, output a '-'.

I put a few examples below.



 

Column AColumn DColumn EColumn IExpected Value
111Final100C D w/ I150
111Final100C D w/ I150
111Final50C D w/ I150
111Test1000Test150
222Final500Test

333Final100C D w/ I100
333Final100C D w/ I100
444Final100C D w/ I250
444Final150C D w/ I250

It appears the first suggestion works, slightly modified to remove some of the IF statements (I included a second example in the workbook that I believe would also work, although longer) . You may have to hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter after copying/keying it into the formula bar instead of just enter (may not be necessary on the latest version of office 365).

 

=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF(($A$2:$A$10=A2)*($D$2:$D$10="Final")*($I$2:$I$10="C D w/ I"),$E$2:$E$10),--$E$2:$E$10),$E$2:$E$10))

 

To get the "-" for zero values, I would suggest using a custom number format.
