I have a formula, found elsewhere, that counts the totals of cells from current date – backwards for one year
=SUMIFS($L$5:$BDQ$5,$L$3:$BDQ$3,"<="&F37,$L$3:$BDQ$3,">="&DATE(YEAR(F37)-1,MONTH(F37),DAY(F37)))

Data in $L$5:$BDQ$5
Dates in ,$L$3:$BDQ$3
Todays date in $F$37

This works perfect for numerical values in the cells. However, I have a spread sheet that has “codes” as values in the cells: Two of the codes are “SO” & “S”. I need to count (sum) these as a rolling period from current date to one year previous
Code used for COUNTIF.
=COUNTIF(L5:BDQ5,"=SO")+COUNTIF(L5:BDQ5,"=S")

Unfortunately I cannot work out how integrate the COUNTIF instead of the SUMIFS

Probably just missing something simple? Any helps would be much appreciated
 

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
I think it would be helpful to see an example of your data, along with your expected results.

Maybe...

=SUM(COUNTIFS($L$5:$BDQ$5,{"S","SO"},$L$3:$BDQ$3,"<="&F37,$L$3:$BDQ$3,">="&DATE(YEAR(F37)-1,MONTH(F37),DAY(F37))))
