Double count issue. SUMIFS/SUMIF

[Tjadi]

Hi all,

I am having a problem with a double counting sumif, because of and array.

<style type="text/css"><!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--></style>

Expertises	OB	Total Events
Banking / Finance, PR / Communicatie, HRM / Recruitment, IT / ICT, Management, Marketing / Product Management, Sales	OB	222
Juridisch	OB	205
IT / ICT, Marketing / Product Management, Sales	OB	187

<colgroup><col style="width: 232px"><col width="100"><col width="100"></colgroup><tbody>
</tbody>

I want to count up all the numbers of the expertises Banking / Juridisch /Communicatie. I created the following formula:

=ArrayFormula(SUM(SUM.If(A2:A4;{"*Banking*";"*Communicatie*";"*Juridisch*"};C2:C4)))

But it double counts the first row. Is it possible to only count a row once? The outcome in this case was 649, instead of the intended 427.

Hope someone knows a way of doing this! Looking forward to hearing any solutions.

These work in excel:

=SUM(IF(MMULT(0+ISNUMBER(SEARCH({"*Banking*","*Communicatie*","*Juridisch*"},A2:A4)),{1;1;1})>0,C2:C4))
=SUMPRODUCT(C2:C4,--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Banking",A2:A4))+ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Communicatie",A2:A4))+ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Juridisch",A2:A4))>0))
