    #DIV!/0 error when using two sets of countifs

    Good day,

    I am getting the dreaded #DIV!/0 error, which is being produced by the 2nd set of COUNTIFS below. I handled the first #DIV!/0 error possibility from the first set of COUNTIFS. What is it I am doing wrong. I have spent hours trying to display a blank cell instead of the #DIV!/0 error.

    =IF(ISERROR(COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$A:$A,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$B:$B,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$C:$C,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$D:$D,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")/$B$5),"", (COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$A:$A,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$B:$B,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$C:$C,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$D:$D,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%"))/$B15)

    Did you know that the second half is not identical to the first? If you have a new enough version of Excel, the IFERROR function would give you a more streamlined formula.

    The countifs don't matter. It is the $B$5 and the $B15 that cannot be Zero. Just use logic function - =IF(OR($B$5=0,$B15=0)," ","Desired result here")

    Re: #DIV!/0 error when using two sets of countifs

    As you are using COUNTIFS you must have IFERROR so:

    =IFERROR(COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$A:$A,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$B:$B,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$C:$C,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$D:$D,Manager!$A15,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")/$B$5),"")

    Re: #DIV!/0 error when using two sets of countifs

    We rewrote the formula to this and it appears to be perfect now. Thanks for the ideas.

    =IFERROR(IF((COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$A:$A,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+ COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$B:$B,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+ COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$C:$C,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")+ COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$D:$D,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AP:AP,"100%")) /$B$5,"", (COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$A:$A,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%")+ COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$B:$B,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%")+ COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$C:$C,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%")+ COUNTIFS('Individual Progress'!$D:$D,Manager!$A5,'Individual Progress'!AQ:AQ,"100%"))/$B5),"")
