    Unhappy Averageifs with an or statement

    Hi

    I hope you can help! Just keep going round in circles...

    I have an averageifs formula but one of the criteria requires it to look for 2 values in a column. I have used a format i found on line and tried many other formats too but i can't get it to bring back the right result. This is what i have used

    =AVERAGEIFS(OfferedNSC!$Q:$Q,OfferedNSC!$K:$K,$C22,OfferedNSC!$R:$R,L$12,OfferedNSC!$L:$L,{"m","t"})

    Thanks
    Kerry

    Re: Averageifs with an or statement

    =average(if((OfferedNSC!$K:$K=$C22)*(OfferedNSC!$R:$R=L$12)*(OfferedNSC!$L:$L={"m","t"}),OfferedNSC!$Q:$Q)) array entered should work

    Try this array formula**:

    =AVERAGE(IF(OfferedNSC!$K2:$K20=$C22,IF(OfferedNSC!$R2:$R20=L$12,IF(OfferedNSC!$L2:$L20={"m","t"},OfferedNSC!$Q2:$Q20))))

    ** array formulas need to be entered using the key
    combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER).
    Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT key
    then hit ENTER.

    You should avoid using entire columns as range references in array formulas.

    Re: Averageifs with an or statement

    You won't be able to use AVERAGEIFS, try SUMIFS/COUNTIFS like this

    =SUM(SUMIFS(OfferedNSC!$Q:$Q,OfferedNSC!$K:$K,$C22,OfferedNSC!$R:$R,L$12,OfferedNSC!$L:$L,{"m","t"}))/SUM(COUNTIFS(OfferedNSC!$K:$K,$C22,OfferedNSC!$R:$R,L$12,OfferedNSC!$L:$L,{"m","t"}))

    or use an "array formula" like this

    =AVERAGE(IF((OfferedNSC!$K:$K=$C22)*(OfferedNSC!$R:$R=L$12)*(OfferedNSC!$L:$L={"m","t"}),OfferedNSC!$Q:$Q))

    confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER
