Hello!
I have a pretty complicated spreadsheet to work on and I need some help.
The spreadsheet has lots of merged cells which I managed to resolved.

1. I tried to sum the total time but it just return as 0:00:00 - I have formatted the cells as [h]:mm:ss. Any ideas what is causing the return value as 0:00:00
2. For Prod Time (HR) for Staff - formula used - =SUM(IFERROR(VLOOKUP($AY14&$AX14,$C$14:$AI$50,20,0),""),IFERROR(VLOOKUP($AY14&$AX14,$C$14:$AI$50,23,0),""),IFERROR(VLOOKUP($AY14&$AX14,$C$14:$AI$50,27,0),""),IFERROR(VLOOKUP($AY14&$AX14,$C$14:$AI$50,30,0),""))
but return value for an absent staff kept showing #value!
And that causes the Total to be #value! too.
I tried using =SUMIF(BA14:BA60,"<>#N/A") but it just didn't work.
Any help from anybody please?

Staff Name</SPAN>
Staff Time (Hr)</SPAN>
Prod Time (Hr)</SPAN>
Report Total</SPAN>
0:00:00</SPAN>
#VALUE!</SPAN>
Staff A</SPAN>
07:29:40</SPAN>
4:28:41</SPAN>
Staff B</SPAN>

#VALUE!</SPAN>
Staff C</SPAN>
07:54:41</SPAN>
6:43:37</SPAN>
Staff D</SPAN>
07:16:34</SPAN>
4:38:38</SPAN>
Staff E</SPAN>

#VALUE!</SPAN>
Staff F</SPAN>
06:34:29</SPAN>
4:08:11</SPAN>
Staff G</SPAN>

#VALUE!</SPAN>

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
HI SJNTAN
Welcome to the forum, have you tried replacing the N/A with #VALUE!, that should work, personally I would change the formula their have enter, so it didn't show an error value, as I'm fairly sure, that will be their next requirement for you

Hi Pup,

Thank you. It works! I changed the formula to =SUMIF(BA14:BA60,"<>#value!") and got the time sum up.

Would you be able to help with the sum of staff time as well?

Once again thank you!

HI SJNTAN
I would be tempted to use the same formula, as you don't know, if that error value will come up again, just on the staff column
Regards
Pup



Just glad I could help ;)
