Good afternoon, all!
Hopefully I explain this well. I'm working on summarizing data and I have four different criteria that I want to be able to "filter" the data by, each with a couple of different options. The first two criteria are a start and end date - That's simple. CountIf between those dates. Where I am getting stumped is the additional criteria..
This is a real estate spreadsheet, so as an example, for the 3rd criteria (type), the value may be Seller, Buyer or I could leave that field blank. If its blank, my intention is that it will ignore type and count everything that matches the other criteria (such as being within the correct date range).
There is one other criteria, which is the agent's name.. Same principal as the Type field. It could either have an agent's name, in which case I want it to only count the data for that specific agent, or it could be blank in which case I want it to ignore that criteria and count for all agents that meet the other criteria (date and type).
I hope this makes sense.. I think I'm overcomplicating it in my head, so any guidance is appreciated!
