I have 3 columns of data which may or may not have values in them, and I want their sum.
Basically I want to make the following formula work:
SUMIF(D3&P3&AB3,"<>")
Setting the range as D3:AB3 will not work, as I have various other values in between and I only want the D, P, and AB columns summed.
I know I could use nested IFs but this is just a sample and I actually have a lot more columns to sum up.
For example D3 would have a number value, P3 would be blank and AB3 would be blank. In that case I just want to see D3 in my cell
EDIT
It works with =SUM(D3,P3,AB3), but not by =D3+P3+AB3 and I'd like to understand why
You can simply use:
=SUM(D3,P3,AB3)
SUM function will add numbers in the cells ignoring text and blanks.

I have a database in excel where columns hold lots of different pieces of data. On a different sheet I would like to be able to perform a SUM within a COUNTIFS statement.
The logic in my head is this, but obviously it does not work:
=COUNTIFS($B:$B,$F4,(SUM($C:$C+$D:$D)),">=2")
So here I am saying if in column B of the database the value is equal to what I have in cell F4 on my sheet, then I would like, for each row where the value is what I have in F4, to add up the values between cells C and D, and if that value is greater than 2 then count it, if not then do not count it.
Here is a picture of expected output:
Here is an option based on your sample data, however by the looks of it I get different results than yours:
Formula in G4:
=SUMPRODUCT(($B$4:$B$12=$F4)*($C$4:$C$12+$D$4:$D$12>=G$3))
Note: I changed cell's G3:H3 value to be able to reference them.
Drag down and right. For a dynamic reference style you might try:
=SUMPRODUCT((F2:INDEX(F:F,COUNTA(F:F))=C3)*(H2:INDEX(H:H,COUNTA(H:H))+I2:INDEX(I:I,COUNTA(I:I))>=2))
Using your layout
Using a helper column in column E
=C4+D4
Then drag that down
Putting this formula in G4 and dragging down should do what you want
=COUNTIFS(E:E;$G$3;B:B;F4)
and this in H4
=COUNTIFS(E:E;$H$3;B:B;F4)
As someone else pointed out, your sample expected result is incorrect if I understand what it is that you want to achieve correctly. You can change the Value in G3 and H3 respectively to adjust your criteria if necessary. In my test i had >=2 and >=3 respectively
Having A1+C1 and B1+D1 in two cells how can I dynamically set up a formula to catch if some column is added.
Let's say the user adds two columns in the middle. I should have A1+C1+E1 and B1+D1+F1.
I thought it would have been automatic but it is not.
Replace:
=A1+C1
By:
=SUM(A1:C1) - B1
In case you want to check if the column number is divisble by three, you can use following formula:
=IF(MOD(COLUMN(A1);3)=0;A1;0) // I've put the values from 1 to 10 in A1-J1
// and I've dragged this formula from A2 to J2,
// the values were 0,0,3,0,0,6,0,0,9,0.
Unfortunately I don't have a simple way to sum those values in one easy formula.
If you always add two columns then A1+C1 will always be looking at odd number columns and B1+D1 will always be looking at even numbered columns.
{=SUM(IF(ISODD(COLUMN($A$1:$D$1)),$A$1:$D$1))}
and
{=SUM(IF(ISEVEN(COLUMN($A$1:$D$1)),$A$1:$D$1))}
As long as you insert columns between A:D the ranges will extend to accommodate.
Edit:
Based on the comment that row 2 contains codes and row 3 contains the figures to add up for each code then this array formula will work:
{=SUM(IF($A$2:$J$2="H1",$A$3:$J$3))}
Edit2: and if I wake up you can even use the non-array and built in formula:
=SUMIF($A$2:$J$2,"H1",$A$3:$J$3)
The H1 text can be changed to another code or to a cell reference containing the code to get the sum of values in row 3 for the specified code.
As an array formula it must be entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
I have Table 1 & 2 like image.
How i can get all cells value if ID is equals?
If you just need to add numbers, there are formulas for this, but I'm not sure if there's a single formula for adding string values as in the provided example. One way to resolve this is by using accumulator columns as in this screen shot:
The formula in cell C3 is:
=IF($A3<>C$1,C2,IF(C2=0,$B3,C2&", "&$B3))
Copy this down to cell E10 (or wherever that table needs to end) and columns C to E will accumulate the values from column B. Table 2 then just maps the first and last rows of the accumulator columns. The zeros in cells C2 to E2 is a work-around to prevent Excel from converting blank cells into zeros.
Hope this helps!
I am trying to display the total sum of all the numbers for a particular column. I want the sum to be displayed above the column as follows:
21 30
A B
6 5
6 10
6 10
3 5
I know I can sum the values and display it at the bottom of the column using =SUM(A3:INDIRECT("D"&ROW()-2)), however I am not getting a way to display it at the top of the column.
Please guide.
Based on the comments and the previous answers I suggest following formula, entered in cell A1:
=SUM(OFFSET(A$2,0,0,ROWS(b:b)-1))
You can then copy/paste to the right till second last column.
You could also modify your formula in A1 like this to achieve the same:
=SUM(INDIRECT("A2:A"&ROWS(A:A)-2))
But then you cannot copy/paste to the right...
A more general approach with your idea would be:
=SUM(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW()+1,COLUMN())&":"&ADDRESS(ROWS(A:A),COLUMN())))
You can then copy/paste to the right till last column.
Some explanations:
Both formula sums up every value in the range from A2 till the bottom of column A (i.e. for Excel 2010 this would be A2:A1048576)
It doesn't matter if there are blanks or cells without value; the formula sums up only the numbers
I put A$2 and B:B in the OFFSET formula to avoid circular references, since I'm writing in cell A1 and I cannot write A$1 nor A:A
With the INDIRECT formula you don't have to worry about circular references
Further commenting (sorry, I don't have the credits to comment at the right place under the question):
Phylogenesis formula =SUM(A3:A65535) could also do the work, isn't it?
Didn't understand your question at first, because you talk of "sum of all the numbers for a particular row" but then you sum columns, isn't it?
When I'm doing something like this, I prefer to not include any empty cells beneath the range I'm summing, because I've had errors in the past as the result of including them (usually because there's a cell way down in the column somewhere that I'm not expecting to have a value). I'm assuming that A & B are your column headers. Assuming that, here is how I would do it. This is your formula for cell A1:
=SUM(OFFSET(A$1,2,0,COUNTA(A$3:A$65535)))
Explanation
I'm updating this with a brief explanation, per the OP's request.
According to ExcelFunctions.net:
The Excel Offset function returns range of cells that is a specified number of rows and columns from an initial supplied range.
The function reference for OFFSET is:
=OFFSET(reference, rows, cols, [height], [width])
What this formula does is create a dynamic range based on the number of cells in the selection, relative to cell A$1. This is an offset of two rows and no columns, which starts the range at A$3. The height of the range is the total number of filled cells in the range A$3:A$65535. The assumption here is that there are no blank cells in the range, which there were not in the sample data.
I'm having an issue getting accurate data from the SUMIF function. This appears to be caused by the SKU and Product name being identical however I don't understand why the selected range would be ignored.
SUMIF(G:K,A2,K:K) - Cell D2 is calling for the sum of K yet returning the sum result of K2:M2. All other results in D are correct.
SUMIF(G:K,A2,I:I) - If I change the formula in D to SUM I:I (text not a numeric field) the function returns the sum of K:K
Example file http://tempsend.com/013C2B6378
According to the documentation here the range to be summed starts at the top left of the sum range (K:K in your first example) but its size is given by the size of the criteria range (G:K in your example). So I think that's why you're getting extra columns summed in your result.
If you have multiple criteria involving different columns, you should be able to use SUMIFS.
So let's say your data sit in 8 rows (including the headings).
then you simply need to change your formula to say, look for B2 in column G OR in I, if true, then sum the values in K. Right?
put this formula in B2 and press ctrl+shift+enter to calculate the formula.
=SUM(IF(($G$2:$G$8=B2)+($I$2:$I$8=B2),1,0)*$K$2:$K$8)
then drag and fill down until the last cell.
obviously you need to adjust the ranges in the formula to adapt to your own data.
tell me if you get to the answer via this.
