    Formula For Sum of Spend Per Month During a Start and End Date

    Hello All,

    Many Thanks for looking at this problem!

    Well, I have a database of spend per month using a sumif function. What I need is a formula that sums up the total spend between 2 dates and anything before or after these dates are not included in the total spend.

    So for instance, a person spends 100 pounds a month for 24 months between dates 01/01/11 - 01/01/13. But I need a formula to work out what the person spent between dates 04/09/11 - 04/07/12. This is needed for over 5000 lines of data.

    I hope iv explained that ok. Iv attached an example as well.

    Many Thanks

    Darren

    RCM
    Why is the concatenation needed in the formula below?

    =SUMIFS($E3:$AC3,$E$1:$AC$1,">="&$B3,$E$1:$AC$1,"<="&$C3)

    @K m:
    that is needed in COUNTIF, SUMIF or AVERAGEIF when you are combining it with a cell reference. otherwise, it wont recognise it as a cell reference

    @Darren:
    i think your months in row 1 is always starting from 1st of the month. so is 04/09/11 - 04/07/12 excluding Sep-11 & Jul-12? if you were to include, are they supposed to be pro-rated?

    Thanks so much guys!

    Benishiryo - Yes they are supposed to include those months.

    How would i change that formula to include only certain cells. For example iv attached another spreadsheet which is similar to the one above but iv added two coloums to each month. But I only want to include the invoice total for that month.

    On the attached spreadsheet, the amount under invoice total for each month is what i want to look at. That forumla by RCM is great but tis there a way to change to just accept them cells?

    I hope you understaned.

    Many Thanks

    Darren

    Hi
    You can use the SUMIFS.

    Thanks Kevin!! That Works perfectly!

    When I drag down that formula down for different data, the formula does not change. Am I doing something wrong?
    So in the above example, for person 2, person 3 etc.


    Cheers
    Darren
