Extracting unique values

[CookieMonster76]

Hi

I have a report that comes out like this:

It shows employees hand training courses they need to do.

I need to summarise it to tell me how many unique employees there are, which i have done like this:

IFERROR(ROWS(UNIQUE(FILTER(M:M,O:O="Sales"))),0)

However, I would then like to exclude anyone who is marked as "Yes" in Col J.

So the end result should be

Sales 0
Finance 1
IT 1

Can the above formula be amended to do this?

Thanks

Paul

something like

=IFERROR(ROWS(UNIQUE(FILTER(M:M,(( O:O="Sales") * (J:J<>"yes") )) )),0)

Book4
	A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H	I	J	K	L	M	N	O
1	2
2
3										yes			a		sales
4
5													b		sales
6
7													c		sales
8
Sheet1

Cell Formulas
Range	Formula
A1	A1	=IFERROR(ROWS(UNIQUE(FILTER(M:M,(( O:O="Sales") * (J:J<>"yes") )) )),0)

BUT , probably not good to reference the full column - choose a range

Note: Images are difficult to see , and also requires that I input all the data myself, which means I may make an error, which is very time consuming, and from my point of view less likely to get a response, if a complicated spreadsheet. Plus we cannot see any of the formulas used.

Therefore -

A SMALL sample spreadsheet, around 10-20 rows, would help a lot here, with all sensitive data removed, and expected results mocked up and manually entered, with a few notes of explanation.

MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data and will allow us to copy/paste your sample data into our Excel spreadsheets, saving a lot of time.

You can also test to see if it works ok, in the "Test Here" forum.

OR if you cannot get XL2BB to work, or have restrictions on your PC

then put the sample spreadsheet onto a share

I only tend to goto OneDrive, Dropbox or google docs , as I'm never certain of other random share sites and possible virus.
Please make sure you have a representative data sample and also that the data has been desensitised, remember this site is open to anyone with internet access to see - so any sensitive / personal data should be removed

Make sure you set any share or google to share to everyone

Maybe update your avatar to include your office version as solutions are quite often based on office version.
