IF AND Statement Not Working When Logical Test is Data Validation

[RuthS84]

Attached is my spreadsheet.

I have a Data Validation List in the M Column that you can select what kind of tax the order is. I need my formula to look at the date and if it equals 9 then check to see if the list equals "Out_of_State". If both are true, I need it to SUM the Taxable Amount.

I've tried =IF(AND(MONTH(Etsy!$A$2:$A$3000=9), Etsy!$M$2:$M$3000="Out_of_State"),SUM(Etsy!$J$4:$J$3000),0)

But it just returns 0.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Perhaps =SUMPRODUCT((MONTH(A2:A17)=9)*(M2:M23=$M$2)*J2:J23)

Sorry for off-topic interjection:

Although there is no official rule regarding this behaviour, we request that wherever possible both the question AND the answer be provided in substantive detail here within the thread. An attached workbook is an excellent aid for posing a question and offering a solution, but solely doing that with no in thread explanation makes it difficult for researchers to understand or consider the Q & A of this thread without downloading what may be a pointless doc to them, if they can do that at all. Doing that also hides the content from search engines so others may never benefit from this.

Thanks for your response. Yes, could you explain your thinking?

Your spreadsheet doesn't use a data validation list. The search for "Out_of_State" only works because it's in M2. I have three choices in my drop-down list and they could change.

Your layout is perfect for a Pivot Table. Is that an option you can work with?
And actually you are using Filters, not Data Validation as far as I can see

Thank you Narayan, the SUMPRODUCT worked great.
