I am trying to use the =COUNTIFS formula to track incoming post. Column B is the date of incoming post, Column E is the date the post is worked.
I want to count the number of rows where column B is less than today’s date and column E is blank.
I am using the formula below however it is giving me a return of 0 where it should be thousands.
=COUNTIFS(Invoices!B:B,"<Today()",Invoices!E:E,"")
Based on an answer I got here:
Excel: CountIf Quandry
I also tried formula below but again I am getting a 0 return.
=SUMPRODUCT(Invoices!B:B = "<Today()")*(Invoices!E:E="")
Finally I tried both formulae with much smaller ranges but again to no avail.
Appreciate any insights you may have
Thanks
The below formula will work, but you'll need to change the ranges to reflect your data set and maybe worksheet names.
The key to the below is combining the Today() function with the less than operator "<" by using an ampersand "&"
You also need to test column E for a blank value which is represented by blank quotation marks ""
=COUNTIFS(Invoices!B:B,"<"&TODAY(),Invoices!E:E,"")
You need to keep the TODAY() function outside of the quotation marks and concatenate it with the lesser than symbol. Try this:
=COUNTIFS(Invoices!B:B,"<"&TODAY(),Invoices!E:E,"")

I have cell value with 115y300d which needs to be move to separate cell, however in few cell I have data like 10h30m, so it's mixed text.
What I want to do is value before "y" should go in Year Column "d" in Days, similar for h = hours and M in Minutes. Since it is not in similar format, I'm not able to do text to columns and other functions, and need your help.
You could use find() to do things like so:
=if(iferror(find("y",A2,1)>0,0),left(A2,find("y",A2,1)-1,"")
which will put the value before y into the cell or set it to blank.
Expand the idea to find d & y etc
One option could be:
Formula in B1:
=DROP(WRAPROWS(TEXTSPLIT(CONCAT(BYROW(A1:A5,LAMBDA(a,IF(RIGHT(a)="d",a&"hm","yd"&a)))),,{"y","d","h","m"},,""),4),-1)
If you hit CONCAT() limits, you can also do this by row (dragging):
=TEXTSPLIT(IF(RIGHT(A1)="d",A1&"hm","yd"&A1),{"y","d","h","m"},,,"")
I am trying to create an output in excel based off the number of words in cells. Essentially i want to check if the sum of the words in 3 cells is = 1,2 or >=3. Im using the len formula which i have successfully used on single cell conditions but im struggling to create the formula that would check multiple cells.
Below is an example of my data:
Column A Column B Column C
Cat;dog Bird
Formula
=SUMIF(AND(LEN(TRIM(A4))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B4," ",""))+1, LEN(TRIM(C4))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(C4," ",""))+1, >=3), "Titanium")
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1W6nFr-W0r-XWZnvrFWndsvdBEEGHMQUa/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=103068518904190156690&rtpof=true&sd=true
First I made a single formula to work on a single cell. It ignores semicolons and commas to calculate total words. That formula is in column F and it's:
=IF(LEN(E5)=0;0;LEN(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(E5;";";" ");",";" ")))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(E5;";";" ");",";" "));" ";""))+1
Notice I added an IF to make sure that blank cells will count as 0 words (because the +1 will be added wrongly and we need to avoid this.
Now you just need to sum up all results and we get 8 words.
What you want is to get this result with a single formula and that can be perfomed with array formulas. In cell F11 my formula is:
=SUM(IF(LEN(E5:E8)=0;0;LEN(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(E5:E8;";";" ");",";" ")))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(E5:E8;";";" ");",";" "));" ";""))+1))
You need to introduce this formula pressing CTRL+ENTER+SHIFT or it won't work!
Now you got the result in a single formula and you just need to add your conditions mentioned in your post
UPDATE: In your Google Sheets, the correct formula would be:
=ArrayFormula(IF(SUM(IF(LEN(TRIM(A3:B3))=0,0,LEN(TRIM(A3:C3))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A3:C3," ",""))+1))>=3,"Good","Bad"))
Please, notice Excel is not the same as Google Sheets so sometimes the formulas may be different in one of them.
=(Countifs(B:B;”*”;F:F;”<>*1”))
Why doesn't this work?
I want to count all the rows in the sheet, except the ones that has a number that ends with 1 in column F. It just count all the rows, even the ones in column F that ends with 1.
How do I exclude those?
edit
Some more information!
This is a sample of the data:
Could be up to 8000 rows some days. Column B always says "Independent instruction" so I'm using that as a base to count all the rows. Column F contain only numbers, or blank cells (meaning a number will be added later). I still want to count those rows as well (that's blank). It's just the rows that has a number in column F that ends with 1 that I want to exclude!
SUMPRODUCT gives a bit more flexibility for criteria that involve more than straightforward string-matching:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(LEN($B:$B)>0),--(RIGHT($F:$F,1)<>"1"))
The array formula:
{=COUNT(IF((F:F<>"")*(MOD(F:F;10)<>1);F:F))}
will count all non empty cells in the conditions of your question.
Don't forget to press Ctrl+Shift+Enter to place the formula.
Why doesn't this work?
Apart from the fact that you have transcribed it incorrectly (i.e. missing =, and smart quotes ”) the 'F' condition in quotes is a Text value, a formatting issue #BigBen has mentioned in connection with the 'B' values.
You say It just count all the rows so, syntactically corrected, your formula must be working on (a) all 'B's populated (with Text) and (b) all 'F's Numeric. As 1 and "1" are not the same, none of your entries in ColumnF will be excluded by your attempt (none end in "1", though presumably some do end in 1).
#Pspl's A works because its condition (for the 'F's) is based on MOD (applies to Number format values) and #jsheeran's A (my preference) because RIGHT is a string function that returns Text format even from a Number format value.
Put another way, with say 1 in F1, =F1="1" returns FALSE (so =F1<>"1" and =F1<>"*1" return TRUE - that would not suit you) whereas =RIGHT(F1)="1" returns TRUE (or, to suit you, RIGHT(F1)<>"1" returns FALSE).
You can try to use a combination of SUM and IF. Remember to adjust the formula to match your Excel formatting, i.e. replace commas (,) with semicolon (;).
This is an array formula (enter with Ctrl+Shift+Enter)
=SUM(IF(MOD($F$2:$F$25,10)<>1,1,0))
Result (updated with your data set):
When pasting the image into merged cells, the error looks like that:
So you need to make sure the formula is pasted into a single (not merged) cell.
Array formula for values greater than 1000:
=SUM(IF((MOD($F$2:$F$25,10)<>1)*($F$2:$F$25>1000),1,0))
Array formula for values less than 1000:
=SUM(IF((MOD($F$2:$F$25,10)<>1)*($F$2:$F$25<1000),1,0))
Example:
I have the following formula to make a unique list from column plant in table 15:
{=IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant];MATCH(0;COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2;Tabel15[Plant]);0));"")}
This formula is working, but when there is just 1 value in column plant the formula gives a value of 0. This is wrong because it should return the value.
Does anyone know how I can adapt this formula to make it work?
I wanted to change it to this:
{=IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[plant])>0;INDEX(Tabel15[Plant];MATCH(0;COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2;Tabel15[Plant]);0));Kopie - datablad$G$2)}
But it doesn't work either.
Good mock example. Try and see if this works:
The formula counts the unique cells against another list. The unique list expects to take the first row, no matter what. It also expects you to have more than one value in your duplicate list. If it doesn't you can't compare since it expect duplicates and it throws an error, #N/A. This is mask as blank cell since it's wrapped in IFERROR:
"Unique formula" = IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF($Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),"")
To solve this we check how many values it exist in our duplicate list:
=IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,... "Unique formula" ... ,Tabel15[Plant]) //***//
This will give us this result.
Then you probably don't want duplicates...
So we need to check if previous rows contain any of the values the formula would return.
The VLOOKUP formula do that for us, and as lookup value we use the formula above //***// and lookup range will be our current column: $Q$1:Q2. NOTICE this is a dynamic range so Q2 is relative reference (no $).
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF($Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),""),Tabel15[Plant]),$Q$1:Q2,1,FALSE))
So the Final result we need to apply is this in Cell Q3:
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),""),Tabel15[Plant]),Analyses!$Q$1:Q2,1,FALSE)),IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),""),Tabel15[Plant]),"")
The macro error can be ignored by:
If Not IsError(Sheets("Hulpblad").Range("B6").Value) Then
t = Sheets("Hulpblad").Range("B6").Value
'Code...
End If
there is no problem in your formula, it is just telling that there are blanks in the range, 0 means blank. the formula is treating the blank as a value and also considering it in the unique value calculations.
If you want to remove 0 you can just insert an if over your formula to remove it. like
=if(formula = 0, "", formula)
or in orignal form
=IF( (IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2,Tabel15[Plant]),0)),""))=0,"",IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2,Tabel15[Plant]),0)),""))
or go in the cell formatting and change the format to display 0 as a dash.
sometimes blank is also used as error checking, you can apply such formulae as well to check how many are blank, maybe that would someday be used to check any data entry problems.
I have a data file and I need to return the dates of when the value (MaxT) is greater than or equal to 30 (>=30) for 3 consecutive days.

I have attempted to figure this out using the following code but, I do not think I'm even in the ballpark...
Attempted Code:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(FREQUENCY(IF(B2:B23>=30,ROW(B2:B23)),IF(B2:B23>=30,ROW(B2:B23)))=3))
I'm assuming that your data file consists of 2 columns Date and Max T. If they are delimited by commas, you need to split them to 2 different columns using Text to columns delimited by commas ,.
The Date should be in Column A and Max T in Column B.
Enter the below formula in cellC2 and drag down,
=IF(AND(B2>=30,B3>=30,B4>=30),"Consecutive Range","")
The starting of the consecutive range of values greater than 30 will be shown in the output as above. You could then use a filter of some other excel function like Index-Match to get the corresponding dates. Hope this helps.
Alright, I got it to work, but I'm not entirely sure how you would make it work without separating the formula into multiple cells.
One potential solution would be to write some of the formulas into a sheet that's in the background, place the final part of the formula in the front sheet and have it reference the "hidden" bits of the formula.
First, I wrote the data in columns... "Date" in Column A, "MaxT" in Column B.
The first part of the formula is written in cell D2:
=IF(B2>=30,B2,"")
The next part of the formula is written in cell E2:
=COUNT(D2:D4)
The last part of the formula is written in cell F2:
=IF(E2=3,A2&","&A3&","&A4,"")
The result of this formula, in column F, there are 7 cells that have three dates written in them, separated by a comma.
Note that you can make any character or string of text separate the three displayed dates by replacing the commas that are in-between the ampersand, quote text:
(&","&) can become (&"anything you want"&)
From here, auto-fill the formulas to the relevant cells.
EDIT:
One way to shorten the code is to add the COUNT formula into the last IF statement like this:
=IF(COUNT(D2:D4)=3,A9&","&A10&","&A11,"")
I do still think that the first IF statement will need to be separate from the rest of the formula, though.
EDIT #2
Here is the code in one single cell:
=IF(AND(B2>=30,B3>=30,B4>=30), A2&","&A3&","&A4,"")
Which will display three dates that are located within Column A, current row & the next two rows below it.
This code still produces 7 lines of results with the data that you've provided.
