    Sumif same cell on sheets based on month

    Hello,

    My timesheet has all the pay perionds of the year that sum totals in the last sheet based on the month needed. I had to add more sheets and have come to realize the formula is really long-winded. Looking for a shorter formula to use. Example attached.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi JDR,

    How do I explain this nicely?? You have discovered that the way you set up your data makes a difference. Excel works best if you collect data in a TABLE. That is an area of cells with no blank rows or columns. Each column head needs a name and each row is a record of data. You decided to put each week(s) on a different tab and duplicate the layout. Now a formula to gather all the sheets data into a single number is too hard (I saw your formula that is HUGE).

    If you reorganized your data in a better TABLE format you could filter and sort and even graph the data much better.

    I'd make the first column a Labor Column that could have an Employee Name or Casuals (?) or M&I name or Student Name.
    The second column head would be Date (Pay date or date of transaction)
    The next column heads would be like you have on row 4 starting at column C of your sheets.

    I'd make all this data into a single table on a single sheet. Then I'd use filters and sorts or Pivot Tables to give you the answers you need. Pivot Tables doen't need formulas...

    One test is worth a thousand opinions.
