    Post auto count viseble cells with words

    Hi all,

    "We enter all the cargo damages we have into a spreadsheet. To evaluate the damages, we would like to be able to see the number of "P�k�rt," "Surring" and "Br�ddeholder" incidents. I can use a COUNTIF function, but it counts all cells and not just the specific ones. So when we look at the month of August or what Employee number, we would like it to show how many "P�k�rt" damages we have had, "Surring" damages we have had, and "Br�ddeholder" damages we have had, and not the total quantity.

    I have tried =SUBTOTAL 103, but it cannot differentiate between whether it's "P�k�rt","Surring" or "Br�ddeholder".

    Help

    Welcome to the forum.

    Where in the workbook have you mocked up what you want to achieve? Please do so and annotate the mocked-up data for clarity.

    Hi Thank you.

    The formula should look at columns G to V and count how many cells contain "Påkørt" and a nother row counts the cells containing "Bræddeholder" but only in the visible cells. So when we're looking at how many damages Terminal has caused, it automatically adds them up. Right now, counting them manually works fine, but in a year or two, it will become too cumbersome. It's easier to extract numbers to track the development of cargo damages.

    Sorry for anything that is lost in translation.

    No, I don't want an image: I want you to mock up manually what you want in the workbook with annotations. Please do as requested. Thanks.

    Perhaps this will help:
    1. Add another column, Include, to Tabel1
    2. Separate the red rows from Table1
    3. Populate the red rows using: =COUNTIFS(Tabel1[Fase1: Opsamling hos afsender],$F852,Tabel1[[include]:[include]],">0")
    Note that in the attached file a date filter, this quarter, is applied.
    Let us know if you have any questions.
