Good afternoon

On Sheet 1 I have a list of data, in column A i have a persons name, in column B through to F I have dates that the person is on annual leave, there are multiple names with duplicates in column A

On sheet 2 i have a persons name in cell A2 and a specific date in cell B1, I am trying to count how many times that person has the specific date listed

My formula is

=COUNTIFS(Sheet1!A:A,Sheet2!A2,Sheet1!B:F,Sheet2!B1) but its bringing back #VALUE!

=COUNTIF(Sheet1!A:A,Sheet2!A2) brings back the number of times the persons name is in column A and =COUNTIFS(Sheet1!B:F,Sheet2!B1) counts the number of times the date is located in the 5 columns, but they don't work together

Any idvise please

regards
Paul

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
What version of Excel are you using?

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

How about
Excel Formula:
=sumproduct((Sheet1!A$2:A$100=A2)*(Sheet1!B$2:F$100=B1))
