Currently I try to sort the record by multiple criteria:
From date column C
To date column E
Name column A
Time column D
it always give #N/A result, if I only sort by first 3 criteria, then I can get the result, is it possible to search by 4 criteria?
If I am understanding correctly, I think you are looking for the FILTER function.
Replace =IF(MATCH(1, with =FILTER(Leave_form!$A$2:$C$15, and get rid of the trailing portion after the four criteria.

I am trying to perform a countif, based on criteria from another column with a filter.
Goal: Count the number of times MD in Column A chose "5" in column B, despite it having a filter.
Try this:
=countifs(b:b,a:a,"MD",b:b,5)
Result
On the left you see a table with 3 columns and I want to find the result using a formula. The matching criteria are I want all Products from column A that either match "Yes" or "Maybe" OR match 5 in column C.
Full criteria:
Match "Yes" or "Maybe" in column A
OR
Match 5 in column C
Whenever I have already matched a Product from column A, I don't want to have it displayed again. This formula should be in such a way that I can drag it down and it displays all the matches.
I have looked into: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fYlWeMQ6L8
but it's growing over my head.
Could anyone please help out?
I need to sum all values in Column A where Column B is a duplicate.
Above is a sample of the data. Column B has urls and Column A has counts for the urls. What I want is to sum the values in Column A for duplicate values in Column B.
Example:
The output for _.apelabs.net should be 6.
How can I achieve this?
I think you are looking for the function =COUNTIF(Range,Criteria)
Here is a link that shows a usage example.
As #Andresson stated, if you're trying to count the number of times a specific url appears, you might want to use the COUNTIF function: =COUNTIF(range, criteria).
COUNTIF Example:
Using =COUNTIF(B:B, "_.apelabs.net")
would return 3 in your sample data (assuming your image includes the only instances of "_.apelabs.net").
This example of the COUNTIF function is the same as saying, "count the total number of times a cell in Column B (i.e. B:B) equals "_.apelabs.net"."
However, if you're wanting to sum together all the values in Column A where the corresponding url in Column B matches the given criteria, you'll want the SUMIF function: =SUMIF(range, criteria, [sum_range]).
SUMIF Example:
Using =SUMIF(B:B, "_.apelabs.net", A:A)
would return 5 in your sample data (again assuming your image includes the only instances of "_.apelabs.net").
This example of the SUMIF function is the same as saying, "each time a cell in Column B (i.e. B:B) equals "_.apelabs.net", sum together the values in Column A (i.e. A:A) that are located in the same row as each "_.apelabs.net" found in Column B."
Additionally, you can also use a pivot table, as #ScottCraner suggested. It's all a matter in how you want to present your findings.
Is it possible to return a given custom value while performing a multi-column search in excel?
I have 2 sheets,
In the first sheet I have 3 columns, and each column have several rows with unique numbers.
In the second sheet I have 2 columns, the 1st column in this sheet2 has a unique number that can be found in sheet 1 columns 1,2 or 3.
In column 2 in this sheet2 I want to display a custom text if the value in column 1 is found in any of the 3 columns in sheet 1.
For example if the value in sheet2/column1 is found in sheet1/Column3, the text should be = "Value Found in Column1", if the value is found in sheet1/Column2, the text should be = "Value Found in Column2", if the value is found in sheet1/Column1, the text should be = "Value Found in Column1".
Is this possible, can you give an example of this?
Thank you.
Yes this can be done. I could write the function for you but I think you would be better off trying to write it yourself. Here is how I would go about it. Write a vlookup() in columns B, C, and D of sheet2 corresponding to the columns A, B, and C of sheet1. If vlookup() returns a match in any of these columns, then that value exists in one of the three sheet1 columns.
The next step is to use isna() to return a boolean value of whether vlookup() returned a match. Again, you'll need one of these for each vlookup() (three total).
Lastly you can use and() on the isna() columns to check if all three are #N/A. Based on that boolean value, you can you if() to return your custom text.
Obviously the process I described splits the problem up into many columns. These functions can be combined to fit into one horribly nested function and put into one cell if you really want, but that's up to you. Let me know if you have any trouble.
How can I find duplicate records using their Item Number and copy/extract Unit Price?
You can use a vlookup to find when an item matches another item in a different column. For your example, assuming that row 20 column F contains the item 52F233, use this formula for cell I20
=VLOOKUP(F20,$G$1:$H$1000,2,FALSE)
This will put the unit price in cell I20 when a match is found and #N/A otherwise. You can paste this formula in the entire I column and it will show you when the match is found for each entry. After that, you can sort the ones with a valid match and take the next action you need with the matched data, such as add to a different sheet. The vlookup formula cna be used across multiple files.
