Hi all. Thanks in advance for any help.

I need to sum information in a new table based on the values in TWO columns in another table that may have duplicates of those two columns. Looking at the tables below, I need a formula in the “Paid to Date” column in Table 2 that will give me the totals from Table 1 for each name but only if both the name matches and the “Paid?” column is set to “Yes.”

Table 1 – Information to gather
Employee
Payout DuePaid?
Albiston, Jake200Yes
Anderson, James100Yes
Anderson, Mindy200
Albiston, Jake200Yes
Anderson, James100
Anderson, Mindy200Yes

<tbody>
</tbody>

Table 2 – Where totals need to go
Name
Paid to Date
Albiston, Jake
Anderson, James
Anderson, Mindy

<tbody>
</tbody>

“=SUMIF” doesn’t seem to work because I can’t figure out how to give it two parameters. I’m thinking it’s probably some combination of sumif and lookup but I haven’t been able to figure it out.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
