I have 3 columns A, B, C. Now, I want to get the sum for each cell Ai where
Bi < Ci
Example:
A B C
-----------
2 1 3
4 5 4
3 2 7
6 6 6
-----------
Expected result = A1 + A3 = 2 + 3 = 5
I tried the following formula: =SUMIF(B1:B4,"<C1:C4",A1:A4),
but it gives me 0 !
Anyone could help ?
The SUMIF function accepts 3 arguments: range, criteria, and sum_range.
If you check the documentation, you'll notice that while range and sum_range both accept a "range of cells" (i.e. multiple values), criteria is a single value, the same thing compared against all of the cells in range. If you do put a Range or Array in, then it will only use the first item.
{EDIT} Unless the entire function is part of an Array Calculation, in which case you will get an array of SUMIF for each item in the Array - e.g. {=SUM(SUMIF(A1:A4,{1,2}))} is the same as {=SUM({SUMIF(A1:A4,1), SUMIF(A1:A4,2)})}
This means, you can do =SUM(B1:B4,"<" & MIN(C1:C4),A1:A4) to add up where the values in column A where the value in column B is smaller than all the values in column C, but for a row-by-row comparison you will need an Array Formula or SUMPRODUCT, like so:
=SUMPRODUCT(A1:A4*--(B1:B4<C1:C4))
You can use this array formula:
{=SUM(IF(B1:B4<C1:C4,A1:A4))}
You'll need to apply it with Ctrl + Shift + Enter.
You know that you set the array formula correctly when you see the curly brackets around the formula

I am trying to use SUMIFS and multiply its output with the a values from the corresponding row. Example:
Example
In This example I will use just 1 criteria for the SUMIFS, but the concept remains the same:
SUMIFS(C2:C5; B2:B5; "=Sum"). This would return 5 + 6 = 11
Now I want to multiple that by the corresponding probability. Meaning 5 * 50% + 6 * 20%: SUMIFS(C2:C5; B2:B5; "=Sum") *
Any idea how to include the probability in the equation?
Thanks!
You can't use SUMIFS for this unless you add a helper column - try using SUMPRODUCT instead
=SUMPRODUCT((B2:B5="Sum")+0;C2:C5;D2:D5)
SUMPRODUCT multiplies all the arrays/ranges and then sums the result, so we can include your value and probability ranges with a conditional array based on "Sum" in the include range
With a helper column you can just use column E to multiply C and D, e.g. this formula in E2 copied down
=C2*D2
and then use SUMIFS like this
=SUMIFS(E2:E5;B2:B5;"Sum")
I have a table of data that include a name column and two numeric columns. Example:
A B C
Fred 4 2
Sam 3 6
George 1 7
I'm wanting to retrieve the name in column A for the largest sum of columns B and C. In the example above, I would want "Sam" because 3+6 is greater than any of the other sums.
I know I could create a hidden column (D) that's filed with
=SUM(B2,C2)
and do something like this:
=INDEX(A:A,MATCH(MAX(D:D),D:D,0))
but I'd rather avoid the hidden column, if possible. Is there a way to perform an index-match based on the sum of two cells?
Use the array formula:
=INDEX(A:A,MATCH(MAX((B:B)+(C:C)),(B:B)+(C:C),0))
Array formulas must be entered with Ctrl + Shift + Enter rather than just the Enter key.
(Note the appearance of braces in the formula bar)
I have a data looks like this:
a b c
1 3 4
2 3 3
4 1 2
2 4 2
In another worksheet, I want to do the following calculation:
whenever A1 returns a (header of data worksheet), count number of items that are smaller and equal to 2 in column "a". (result will be 2)
if A1 returns b, count number of items that are smaller and equal to 2 in column "b". (result will be 1).
A1 has already been preset with formula such that it will show a or b or c as conditions changed.
I need the formula to be lean... I actually have 6 headers, so if I keep on using if functions, I will probably have to set 6 if functions in one cell...that can be overwhelming. index match cannot provide a range to work on...Any suggestion? thanks
I don't know vba. If you could provide a workable vba code, i don't mind. but i don't know how to read it...>.< please provide user manual for that. lol, thank you~
If your data is found on Sheet1 and the a is found on column a, b is found on column b etc. enter this formula on then next sheet on b1 when a1 is the column value:
=COUNTIF(INDIRECT("Sheet1!"&a1&":"&a1),"<=2")
The Indirect is for adding text to your reference.
If your data sheet is Sheet1, you could try the array formula:-
=SUM((Sheet1!A1:C1=$A$1)*(Sheet1!A2:C5<=2))
Must be entered with CtrlShiftEnter
(actually there are 3 items less than or equal to 2 in column A)
Or you can use the SUMPRODUCT version if you prefer not to use an array formula:-
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!A1:C1=$A$1)*(Sheet1!A2:C5<=2))
Or you can use this INDEX/MATCH method which is probably more efficient:-
=COUNTIF(INDEX(Sheet1!A2:C5,,MATCH(A1,Sheet1!A1:C1,0)),"<="&2)
Table1
A B C D
1 Seq Item Re-Order Qty On-hand Qty
2 1 X 10 15
3 2 Y 10 5
4 3 Z 10 10
Other worksheet:
Table2
Expected output:
A B C
1 Seq Item Re-Order Qty
2 1 N/A N/A
3 2 Y 10
4 3 N/A N/A
In table2 I need to put in column 2 equation like this:
Index(Table1[Item],Match(table2[Seq],tabel1[Seq],0) WHERE table1[reorder qty] > table1[On-hand Qty]
I'm not sure how such requirement could be managed?
This can be done. It requires the use of an array formula in Table2.
Normally with an INDEX you simply use a range of cells as the array (first argument of the formula). In this case, we will give it a new array to return based on the results of a conditional (your WHERE clause).
I will start with the picture of results and then give the formulas. For me, Table1 is on the left, Table2 on the right.
Formulas
The formulas are very similar, the main difference is which column to return in the IF part which generates the array for INDEX. The conditional part of the IF is the same for all columns. Note that using Tables here really helps copying around the formulas since the ranges cannot change under us.
These are all array formulas and need to be entered with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER.
Table2[Item]
=INDEX(IF(Table1[Re-Order Qty]>Table1[On-hand Qty],Table1[Item],"N/A"), MATCH([#Seq],Table1[Seq],0))
Table2[Re-Order Qty]
=INDEX(IF(Table1[Re-Order Qty]>Table1[On-hand Qty],Table1[Re-Order Qty],"N/A"), MATCH([#Seq],Table1[Seq],0))
Table2[On-hand Qty]
=INDEX(IF(Table1[Re-Order Qty]>Table1[On-hand Qty],Table1[On-hand Qty],"N/A"), MATCH([#Seq],Table1[Seq],0))
The main idea behind these formulas is:
Return a new array based on the conditional. This new array will return the desired column (Item, Re-order, ...) or it will return N/A if the conditional is FALSE. This requires the array formula entry since it is going row by row in the IF.
The MATCH part of the formula to get the row number is "standard". We are simply looking for the Seq number in Table1. This determines which row of the new array to return.
Working a step higher then COUNTIFS, I appose a challenge to write a formula without VBA code. The basic data is combined from 1000s of rows with:
Column A: rows with values from 1 to 3
Column B: rows with values from 1 to 250.
For this purpose lets say, we are looking at all cells of value "1" in column A, that suit value "5" in column B. To find all matches, we'd use COUNTIFS command.
1 1
2 5
1 5
1 7
1 10
3 45
2 12
1 2
2 1
=COUNTIFS(A1:A9;1;B1:B9;5)
The answer here is 1.
Next thing, the "5" in column B belongs to a group, e.g. group from 1 to 9. What would the best way be, to count all the matches in this example, so that for all "1"'s in column A, we'd have to find all matches with values from 1 to 9 in column B?! In the upper example that would result in "4". The obvious solution is with a series of IF commands, but that's unefficient and it easy to make a mistake, that get's easily overseen.
=COUNTIFS(A1:A9;1;B1:B9;"<="&9)
Works only as the upper limit. If I give the third criteria range and condition as ">="&1 it does not work - returns 0.
Gasper
Where the data is in A1:B9, using a lookup table in D1:E10 with letters A-J in column D and numbers 0 to 9 in column E and the following formula in B11 referencing letters entered in A11 and A12:
=COUNTIFS(A1:A9,1,B1:B9,">="&VLOOKUP(A11,$D$1:$E$10,2,FALSE),B1:B9,"<="&VLOOKUP(A12,$D$1:$E$10,2,FALSE))
works, changing the letters in A11 and A12 gives the correct count according to what they correspond to in the looku in D1:E10.
When you say give third criteria range do you mean:
=COUNTIFS(A1:A9;1;B1:B9;"<="&9,B1:B9;">=1")
If so then try:
=COUNTIFS(A1:A9;1;B1:B9;AND("<="&9,;">=1"))
ie have two conditional ranges with the second range having both conditions combined with AND()
Maybe what you want(ed) is:
=COUNTIFS(A:A;1;B:B;">=1";B:B;"<=9")
Almost there. I noticed that three criteria ranges and conditions work only if I use "=" sign in a condition. As soon as I use
=COUNTIFS(A1:A9;1;B1:B9;"<="&9,B1:B9;">=1")
it returns 0. My goal is to eventualy replace the number in a condition with a VLOOKUP command, so the final equation should be smth like
=COUNTIFS(A1:A9;1;B1:B9;"<="&VLOOKUP(...),B1:B9;">=VLOOKUP(...)")
But the "<" and ">" signs mess with this. Still looking for a solution.
This is my entire line, if it offers any further indication. The AND() commands is at the end - and it still results in 0
=COUNTIFS(INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("baza!$";SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1;MATCH("card_type_id";baza!$A$1:$AAA$1;0);4);"1";"");"$2:$";SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1;MATCH("card_type_id";baza!$A$1:$AAA$1;0);4);"1";"");"$15000"));IF(C6="računska";1;0);INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("baza!$";SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1;MATCH(IF($C$4="CC_SI_klasifikacija";"building_classification_id";0);baza!$A$1:$AAA$1;0);4);"1";"");"$2:$";SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1;MATCH(IF($C$4="CC_SI_klasifikacija";"building_classification_id";0);baza!$A$1:$AAA$1;0);4);"1";"");"$15000"));AND("<="&VLOOKUP($C$5;$K$203:$N$223;4;FALSE);">="&VLOOKUP($C$5;$K$203:$N$223;3;FALSE)))
