    What's wrong with this formula?

    This is my combo of Bob and Aladin. Yet still not working. Where is my error?

    =SUMIF(--(J2:J250>=TODAY()+29)&I2:I250<=.01)

    Walking through this in baby steps...

    In cell T3 I am asking Excel to... Sum if J2-J250 is Today or plus the next
    29 days and I20-I250 has a dollar amount greater than or equal to a penny.

    Is that not what I am doing? REALLY STUCK GUYS! Thanks for the continued
    help.

    Hi!

    Try this:

    =SUMPRODUCT(--(J2:J250>=TODAY()+29),--(I2:I250<=.01))

    This will COUNT the number of times where both conditions
    are true. If you want a SUM, you need another argument.

    Hold on there a second!

    Ooops!

    I just noticed this:

    >and I20-I250 has a dollar amount greater than or equal to
    >a penny.


    So change the formula to:

    =SUMPRODUCT(--(J2:J250>=TODAY()+29),--(I2:I250>=.01))

    Nope.

    The SUMIF function does not do multiple comparisons.

    You've got your comparison operators backwards.
    You are using a text concatenation operator (&) which doesn't do what you want
    in a mathematical expression.

    The double unary is unnecessary.

    And you need some parenthesis to make the comparisons do what you want.

    Try:

    =SUMPRODUCT((J2:J250<=(TODAY()+29))*(I2:I250>=0.01)*I2:I250)

    Ignore my message. I see you addressed SUM vs COUNT in your previous post.
    But I think the OP wanted a SUM; perhaps not.

    Thanks Ron. The formula works PERFECTLY. I just input a huge test group of
    easy number and double checked manually. After 30 days it excludes perfectly.
    And give us a clear 30 days window on cash flow.

    You're welcome. Glad to help and thank you for the feedback.
