Countifs Statement, output based on a column read

I have a reference chart (first picture) that has many columns with many rows of information i have created a formula to read the chart and output an answer based on what it reads, but after further review I need the output to have one more stipulation.

Here is my current code for the whole process:

=IF(COUNTIFS('ESU1'!A3:A50,"*DIRECT*",'ESU1'!B3:B50,"*CONSOLIDATION*",'ESU1'!C3:C50,">="&DATE(2011,10,1)),"On or After 10/01/2011",IF(COUNTIFS('ESU1'!A3:A50,"*DIRECT*",'ESU1'!B3:B50,"*CONSOLIDATION*",'ESU1'!C3:C50,"<"&DATE(2011,10,1)),"Before 10/01/2011","Needs to be Done"))

Here is the code that needs the added stipulation:

COUNTIFS('ESU1'!A3:A50,"*DIRECT*",'ESU1'!B3:B50,"*CONSOLIDATION*",'ESU1'!C3:C50,">="&DATE(2011,10,1)),"On or After 10/01/2011", {help write the code for this stipulation listed below}

I want to verify that Column A = Direct, Column B = Consolidation, Column C = Date >= 10/01/11, ADD "Countif Statement" Column H = only the lines which meet A, B, C Criteria have a number larger than zero in them

Hi, welcome to the forum

Administrative Note:

Welcome to the forum.

We would very much like to help you with your query, however the thread title does not really convey what your request is about.

Please take a moment to amend your thread title. Make sure that the title properly explains your request. Your title should be explicit and not be generic (this includes function names used without an indication of what you are trying to achieve).

Please see Forum Rule #1 about proper thread titles and adjust accordingly. To edit the thread title, open the original post to edit and then click on Go Advanced (bottom right) to access the area where you can edit your title.

(Note: this change is not optional. No help to be offered until this moderation request has been fulfilled.)

Also, To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook. The workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

To attach a file to your post,
click advanced (next to quick post),
scroll down until you see "manage file",
click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"

Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
