create sum out of a list based on activated options in 2 different lists

[moritz23]

Dear members,

I have a problem with my excel file. I want to create the sum out of a list for different things when it is activated in the options list.
Example:
Business 1: in option list 1 Germany and Gb is activated. in option list 2 Car and Engine.
Now i want to have the sum for Car from Germany, Car from GB, Engine from Germany, Engine from GB.

I tried a double vlookup with an index formula but it did not work out.

Does anyone know a solution for this?
Thanks in advance

Hi
I suppose you can use the same header in 'Matrix 1' and List.
So, use the following array formula in Q17 and copy down.

See the file

**Array formulas are not entered in the same way as 'standard' formulas. Instead of pressing just ENTER, you first hold down CTRL and SHIFT, and only then press ENTER. If you've done it correctly, you'll notice Excel puts curly brackets {} around the formula (though do not attempt to manually insert these yourself).

Thank you so much for your Help!

The formula is working and I can use it.
So Great to have such a supporting community.
