    SUMIFS across 2 sheets

    Hi,

    I have a spreadsheet in which I am trying to show the total individual employee target per month should they match a specific criteria, i.e. length of service.

    I have tried numerous ways but am clearly missing a trick as I am either giving it too few arguments or it is pulling the wrong data.

    Each employee has a cohort such as 0-6, 7-12, 1, 2 & 3 years in cell HO then in HP is their target which ranges from 0-4. I am trying to pull this to the master tab in a table so it will give me the total number of the target based on each cohort. i.e.
    If I had 15 employees with 2 years service with a target of 2 each month it would show a total of 30
    if I had 20 employees with 3 years service with a target of 4 each month it would show a total of 100.

    I hope someone might be able to assist. can give more info if required, don't know if I am on the right lines here but all my other formulas work throughout my spreadsheet but these are mainly countifs where as I think i think SUMIFs is best required here as I need the sum of the criteria not a count.


    Thank you again.

    Re: SUMIFS across 2 sheets

    sumifs has three arguments that are repeated

    Sum_range (Range to be summed)
    Criteria_range Range where the criteria / Condition is and
    Criteria The Criteria / condition on which to sum up

    Thanks

    use these repeatedly to get your answer

    Thanks

    Re: SUMIFS across 2 sheets

    So this formula is giving me the sum of the targets which is matching against HP (the target) and E119:E124 is the 0-4 range but can't get it to link right with also looking at the 0-6, 7-12, 1, 2 & 3 in HO & F119:F124

    =SUMIF('FE Data'!HP:HP,Headcount!E$119:E124)

    use sumifs not sumif.

    It can handle more than one criteria

    =SUMIFs('FE Data'!HP:HP,Headcount!E$119:E124, 'FE Data'!HO:HO,Headcount!F$119:F124) this returns too few arguments, I'm missing the link here in the criteria I think?

    It might be easier if we could see what you can see!!!

    Please attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is enough data to demonstrate your need. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary. Remember to remove ALL confidential information first!!!
