Hi there,
What I need is a formula to count how many instances an order appears.
Fairly straightforward? Yes, but I need the formula to 'not' count duplicate order numbers or orders that have a negative qty next to them.
i.e
the same order number may appear 4 times in the raw data list, but I need that to be counted as just 1 order.
I have put the answers I am trying to find in the example to the right of the data.
Appreciate any help you may provide.
Use this array formula, copied down:
=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF($C$2:$C$19=$E3,IF($B$2:$B$19>=0,$A$2:$A$19)),IF($C$2:$C$19=$E3,IF($B$2:$B$19>=0,$A$2:$A$19)))>0,1))
Array Formulae are a little different from ordinary formulae in that they MUST be confirmed in the FIRST CELL ONLY by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. After that, the array can be dragged down as normal, to cover the desired range.
You will know the array is active when you see curly brackets { } - or "curly braces" for those of you in the USA, or "flower brackets" for those of you in India - appear around the outside of your formula. If you do not use CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will (almost always) get an error message or an incorrect answer. Press F2 on that cell and try again.
Don't type the curly brackets yourself - it won't work...

Or also array formula (a bit different one):

Both solutions worked perfect.
Thank you both
Leelnich has just pointed out that part of my formula is redundant. Thanks!!
=SUM(--(FREQUENCY(IF($C$2:$C$19=$E3,IF($B$2:$B$19>=0,$A$2:$A$19)),$A$2:$A$19)>0))
is better. It's still an array formula, though.
