Using Countifs

[TMac52]

I'm trying to use Countifs to count the number of FCOs assigned to a unit (F6, G1, G5) which are in "APPROVED" state & fall between certain dates. I have tried ). Any suggestions?

Replace the two = signs with commas.

Try this:

=COUNTIFS($B$4:$B$7,">8/30/2020",B4:B7,"<10/1/2020",$C$4:$C$7,"F6",$D$4:$D$7,"approved")

Thanks to Fluff & aghaffar82, but I'm still not getting the result I had hoped to get. If I'm reading the formula right, I should be getting a result of 2 since the Unit F6 has been picked twice, the Status has two Approved selections and the dates for both are between 8/30/2020 & 10/1/2020. What am I missing?

This is what I got when replicating the data you shared.

 

[aghaffar82]

You may check your criteria columns, whether they contain any spaces or invisible characters, there is nothing wrong with the formula, perhaps, one or both of the criteria have some issue. Double check them and it would work.

Are you dates real dates, or text?
Select col B & change the format to general, do you see dates or 5 figure numbers?

 

[TMac52]

I'm seeing 5 figure numbers in 3 of the 4 cells in B in the example I sent

 

[aghaffar82]

Retype the date where you don't see the 5 digit number and then try again.

It's perhaps the cell with the date 9/29/2020
