Excel - Countif formula issue
April 2018
Issue
In my Excel sheet, Column "B" has the "Pending or Closed" Status and Column "C" has "Severity 1, Severity 2 and Severity 3"
I want to count in the cells with the "Pending and Severity 2" status.
I am able to count below two formulas individually but I want to know how many Pending Severity 1 count.
=COUNTIF(B:B,"Pending") =COUNTIF(C:C,"Sevirity 1")
Solution
Suppose that your data is arranged like this:
A B C 1 4 2 5 3 6 4 7 5 8 pending severity 1 7 1 8 2 pending severity 2 9 4
In any empty cell use this formula, (modify it if needed):
=SUMPRODUCT((B1:B10="pending")*(C1:C10="severity 1"))
Note that
