Hi All

I am trying to do the following and I'm struggling, I have a series of rows to track project steps, I need a sum of hours to be added up against each user assigned to task, but exclude the rows where the task Status is "Complete"

Row Headers below: -

Status ($F$6:$F$45)
Task Owner ($K$6:$K$45)
Actual Estimate ($M$6:$M$45)

The idea being, I choose who is allocated the task (Column K), fill in the estimated time for that task (Column M), and it then adds up the total effort for that individual, but I need it to exclude the row from the count when the "Status" (Column F) reads "Complete"

Below is where I plan to summarise each persons total effort, and the initial formula I used to search for the person and to the adding up.

=SUMIF($K$6:$K$45,"*Name of user assigned task*",$M$6:$M$45)

Hoping you can help,

Thanks
Bazola
 

Excel Facts

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
You might want to update your profile to show what version of excel you are using.

Try this:
Excel Formula:
=SUMIFS($M$6:$M$45,$K$6:$K$45,"*Name of user assigned task*",$F$6:$F$45,"<>Complete")

Thanks for letting me know. Glad I could help
Hi Alex

Quick question, I need to add Task Type functionality for the counts: -

Status ($F$6:$F$45)
Task Owner ($K$6:$K$45)
Actual Estimate ($M$6:$M$45)
Task Type (($I$6:$I$45) - NEW

Basically, when it does the original workings above which you provided, I need it to add up the value in column M as before for each task owner, but I need it to provide an output per Task Type. So if the name is Bill bloggs, and the task type is "Pre-Task", and there is a 4 in the Actual Estimate column (M), against that task type and person so provide the value just for that task type.

Sorry if this doesnt make sense!

I am not sure I fully understand what you are after but to add more criteria you just follow the same pattern

Excel Formula:
=SUMIFS($M$6:$M$45,$K$6:$K$45,"*Name of user assigned task*",$F$6:$F$45,"<>Complete",$I$6:$I$45,"Pre-Task")

You can replace "Pre-Task" with a cell reference ie A1 (no quotes)
