I can't seem to find any examples for this exact Index-Match function problem on this site.
The green boxes have the value of "x". What I'd like to achieve is to find every instance of "x" in column G (this will be dragged for all columns onwards), and essentially look-up in Column D for it's hours equivalent and sum them in a one cell calculation for each week.
e.g. in this section of the spreadsheet, it will sum: 3.75 + 7.5 + 3.75 + 15 = 30 hours
I started with: =INDEX($D$3:$D$157,MATCH("x",G3:G157,0)) which returns the right answer, i.e. 3.75 hours, so I attempted to loop the function using the following:
=AGGREGATE(9,0,INDEX($D$3:$D$157,,MATCH("x",G3:G157,0)))
Though this returns an #REF! error message.
This is a link to a screenshot of the spreadsheet for reference. (I don't have the necessary reputation to post the image with the question).
Any help on this problem would be appreciated. I would prefer an in-cell function solution, as I'm not confident with VBA.
G2: =SUMIF(G$3:G$157,"x",$D$3:$D$157)
and fill right as far as required.
It would be easier if you could add an hidden column with a formula "=IF(G7="x";D7;0)" and calculate the respective hours based on the presence of "x" in column G. Then you can just simply get the total for this hidden column. It is more readable and easy to maintain.

After years of using this community, I have a question that I can't find an answer to. I hope you all can help!
I am trying to get a count of the number of "Grounded" items that each individual is overdue for. My screenshot (Count Tracker) shows a very condensed version of what I'm working with. Columns A-C is my large (15,000 rows) data field that is imported from an external source. In columns G-H I have listed each possible task (about 100 rows) and the type (Grounded and Non-Grounding plus many others). Column F is where I am trying to get the count.
My formula in F9 currently uses COUNTIFS to get a count of the instances in the large array that equal E9 ("Smith" in this case) and where the due date in the large array is less than or equal to the current date in F8. What I can't figure out is how to also add to count the Tasks in the large array where the task type in Column H equals "Grounded". I tried VLOOKUP, but it seems it doesn't like it and tells me there is a problem with the formula. It doesn't work, but here's the general idea of what I'm after:
=COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$7,$E9,$C$2:$C$7,"<="&$F$8,VLOOKUP($B$2:$B$7,$G$2:$H$4,2,FALSE),"=Grounded")
With how the data is currently presented, Smith should have a count of 1 and Jones should have a count of 0. I have a feeling that this is more simple than I'm making it to be, but I can't figure it out. I am using Excel 2016.
Hopefully I explained the problem well enough. Thank you for your assistance.
With Excel 2016 I'd say MMULT() is a good alternative here:
CSE-Formula in F9:
=SUM((A$2:A$7=E9)*(MMULT((TRANSPOSE(G$2:G$4)=B$2:B$7)*(TRANSPOSE(H$2:H$4)="Grounding"),ROW(G$2:G$4)^0))*(C$2:C$7<=F$8))
You could add a fourth column that stores whether that Task is Grounded
The formula for D2 would then be:
=INDEX($H$2:$H$4,MATCH(B2,$G$2:$G$4,0))
Modify your CountIfs formula to use this new column as a criteria
=COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$7,$E9,$C$2:$C$7,"<="&$F$8,$D$2:$D$7, "Grounded")
Try this Sumproduct+Vlookup formula without helper solution, and can work for your Excel 2016
In F9, formula copied down :
=SUMPRODUCT((A$2:A$7=E9)*(VLOOKUP(T(IF({1},$B$2:$B$7)),G$2:H$4,2,0)="Grounded")*($C$2:$C$7<=$F$8))
I have a spreadsheet that shows the actual dollars produced and the expected dollars produced for each employee, where each row is one day and each employee has two columns. I would like to count the number of times an employee came within 10% of their production goal without referencing specific columns. Please look at the example spreadsheet.
I want for the formulas in cells Sheet2!E4:E7 to do what the formulas in Sheet2!E10:E13 do.
I am trying to avoid using direct column references because it causes me to have to go in and update the columns in the formulas every time a new employee is added to the sheet.
I'm no stranger to using INDEX+MATCH, or to converting SUMPRODUCT formulas to INDEX+MATCH. What I can't get past are the formulas in cells Sheet2!E4:E7. If you evaluate the formula you can watch the INDEX+MATCH section on the left side of the formula work correctly, and then a nearly identical INDEX+MATCH section on the right side evaluate to 0 for no apparent reason.
The formula I'm having trouble with is in cell Sheet2!E4:
COUNTIF(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$AZ$314,,MATCH($B4,Sheet1!$A$1:$AZ$1,0)),">"&(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$AZ$314,,MATCH($B4,Sheet1!$A$1:$AZ$1,0)+1)))
The section to the left of the ">" will match with the correct range (Sheet1!B2:B314), however the section to the right of the ">" will evaluate to 0 instead of Sheet1!C2:C314.
This is strange to me because the only real difference between the two sections is the '+1' on the end of the MATCH function, and adding the '+1' to the section to the left of the ">" produces the expected result for the MATCH function (Sheet1!C2:C314) as seen by evaluating the formula in cell Sheet2!E5.
The formula that produces the correct result is in cell Sheet2!E10:
SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$313)),--(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$313<Sheet1!$C$2:$C$313),--(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$313>=Sheet1!$C$2:$C$313*0.9))
I understand that if I exclude the '$' before the column references, any future additions/subtractions to the columns on Sheet1 will adjust the references accordingly. This solution is not ideal, because there are multiple data sheets (one for each year) where the columns are all different (Dan is column F for 2019, G for 2018, M for 2017, etc.), and the tables using these sheets are laid out in a way that would prevent me from easily being able to auto-update the formulas, so a solution that locates the correct column using the employee's name is preferred.
The correct result should be 2 for Allen and 3 for Torres, but I can only seem to get the INDEX+MATCH formulas to return 0, 12, 15, 16, or 17 (depending on what tweaks I make to the formula).
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
You can try this: ARRAY FORMULA CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER
=SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(INDEX($A$1:$E$30,2,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)):INDEX($A$1:$E$30,30,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0))),INDEX($A$1:$E$30,2,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)):INDEX($A$1:$E$30,30,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0))<INDEX($A$1:$E$30,2,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)+1):INDEX($A$1:$E$30,30,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)+1)*(INDEX($A$1:$E$30,2,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)):INDEX($A$1:$E$30,30,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0))>=INDEX($A$1:$E$30,2,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)+1):INDEX($A$1:$E$30,30,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)+1)*0.9))*1)
and adapt the ranges to your needs. It is entered on the same sheet as the data.
Basically this approach uses ARRAY FORMULA CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER
INDEX($A$1:$E$30,2,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)):INDEX($A$1:$E$30,30,MATCH(G9,$A$1:$E$1,0)))
to get the needed ranges. MATCH looks for the right column. the row number can be set as needed, here its is from 2 to30 adapted to your provided data. My search term in this case is in G9 with Allen as content. The result of the formula is $B$2:$B$30. A +1 after Match gives the other range $C$2:$C$30. Both ranges can then be evaluated with the needed conditions
Pull it down and provide Torres in G10. Then the ranges will be adapted to $D$2:$D$30 and $E$2:$E$30.
So I am trying to create a spreadsheet at allows a character in game to total the party inventory.
I am trying to sumif multiple columns based on the same criteria.
So say I am trying to sum all the rope they have.
In column A is the Item descriptions
In columns B-E are the different totals for each party member (one column per person)
Each party member has 50 rope, so I am expecting 200 rope.
I have used this formula:
=SUMIF(A:A,"Rope: Hemp",B:E) and it is only returning 50 as a value, If I utilise cell values (A1:A100 etc.) it returns a value of Zero.
I have been told that Sum Product could works so I also tried that:
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A100="Rope: Hemp")*(B3:E100)) and I still get the incorrect result.
What am I doing wrong?
EDIT:
Here are some photos.
Here is my Raw Data. As you can see I have the inventory and tallies, when you look at rope it says 150, and this was calcualted by summing the B to E cells, however as the list is going to move and grow I thought SUMIF would be better.
As stated above, I have used a SUMIF making the range Columns B through E, and it only returns a value of 50 (I'm assuming Column B)
so came up with this:
=SUMIF(A3:A40,"="&J17&"",B3:B40)+SUMIF(A3:A40,"="&J17&"",C3:C40)+SUMIF(A3:A40,"="&J17&"",D3:D40)+SUMIF(A3:A40,"="&J17&"",E3:E40)
Which works, but I can only assume that sumif only work with ONE target range... And I tried curly brackets as well...
So, I did also use cell J17 for the object you are looking for, so you can drag it down, the "*" will find all occurences of "Rope: Hemp", or "Rope: Nylon" etc. I get a total of 150 as there are only 3 characters with rope...
Hope it helps. Someone else may have a better / neater suggestion!
I just tested it by entering Rope, rapier and rations into J17 and got the results I expect.
Image of spreadsheet:
I have the following table:
and I'd like to have the total for each player but values are every 3 columns.
As you can see from the picture on the bottom part I wrote what manually I should enter.
For player 1
=SUM(D3;G3;J3...)
Player 2
=SUM(D4;G4;J4...)
and so on. What formula should I use to calculate automatically every 3 columns? I know how the MOD works but on the net I found too many examples each one using different methods and none worked so far. Can anyone help me please or point me to the right direction to understand how it works to get this data since I'll be using this a lot (get value from cell every nth column).
thanks
It looks like you should just be using SUMIFS here:
=SUMIFS(3:3,$2:$2,"TOT")
This will sum every value on row 3 (Player 1) where the value in row 2 is "TOT" (every 3rd column). Put this in cell B18 and just copy down in your column B.
Or, in case you change your column labels, you can refer to cell D2 instead of typing "TOT" in the formula:
=SUMIFS(3:3,$2:$2,$D$2)
Try this, it will total all the cells that occur every 3 columns beginning at column D. Z3 can be increased to any column you require:
=SUMPRODUCT((D3:Z3)*(MOD(COLUMN(D3:Z3)-1,3)=0))
The explanation on how it works can be found here (I advise you to bookmark this site for future references. They have many other helpful formulas and functions).
Applying this formula to your reality should be something like this for Player 1 (Not tested. Adjust the ranges as required):
=SUMPRODUCT(--(MOD(COLUMN(D3:Z3)-COLUMN(D3)+1,3)=0),D3:Z3)
Suppose, in Excel, I have a formula =$C$8+1, what must I add to the 1 such that when I drag, it becomes $C$8+2?
Can this be done?
Below is my actual formula.. I wish to increment 1 to 2 such that it becomes =2
IF((NOW()-$C8)=1,"1","0")
Well.. there might be several ways to do it, but the only one I have in the top of my head is using the =ROW() function.
Let's say you're starting the formula at row 5.
=IF((NOW()-$C8)=ROW()-4,"1","0")
The =ROW() will return the row number you currently are (i.e. 5, in this case). Thus, in the first row we'll have =1 (from 5-4) and then =2 (6-4) and so on.
Still, it seems you're comparing dates, right? I'd say you'd need to truncate the values to have a day comparison between them...
=IF((TRUNC(NOW())-TRUNC($C8))=ROW()-4,"1","0")
Hope it helps... or at least give you a path to chose your solution.
