C3 in Sheet 2 needs to contain the value of G3 in Sheet 1 IF B3 in sheet 1 contains a specific text and C3 in Sheet 1 contains a specific text -
So for example, If a driver whose name gets entered via drop down in Sheet 1, B3, has an incident, the title of which is entered by drop down in Sheet 1, C3, then the cost of that incident is entered into Sheet 1, G3. The value in Sheet 1 G3, then needs to be entered into Sheet 2, C3.
Help!
Will you please attach a sample Excel workbook? We are not able to work with or manipulate a description of one and nobody wants to have to recreate your data from scratch.
1. Make sure that your sample data are REPRESENTATIVE of your real data. The use of unrepresentative data is very frustrating and can lead to long delays in reaching a solution.
2. Make sure that your desired solution is also shown (mock up the results manually).
3. Make sure that all confidential data is removed or replaced with dummy data first (e.g. names, addresses, E-mails, etc.).
4. Try to avoid using merged cells as they cause lots of problems.
Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment, so to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.
Please pay particular attention to point 2 (above): without an idea of your intended outcomes, it is often very difficult to offer appropriate advice.

Apologies - I'm new at these forums. Please find attached a mock up of what I am trying to achieve. Sheet 2 is basically counting the occurrences of certain types of incidents for each person and attributing the total costs of those incidents.
In B3:
=IF($A3="","",COUNTIFS(Driver!$B:$B,$A3,Driver!$C:$C,B$1))
In C3:
=IF($A3="","",SUMIFS(Driver!$G:$G,Driver!$B:$B,$A3,Driver!$C:$C,B$1))
Select BOTH cells and drag formula across/down as far as needed.

None of us get paid for helping you... we do this for fun. So DON'T FORGET to say "Thank You" to all who have freely given some of their time to help YOU.
Temporary addition of accented to illustrate ongoing problem to the TT: L? fh?ile P?draig sona dhaoibh
... or if you find all those 0s distracting, in B3:
=IFERROR(1/(1/COUNTIFS(Driver!$B:$B,$A3,Driver!$C:$C,B$1)),"")
and in c3:
=IFERROR(1/(1/SUMIFS(Driver!$G:$G,Driver!$B:$B,$A3,Driver!$C:$C,B$1)),"")
again select both cells and drag...
Thanks so much for your help - extremely useful!
You're welcome.
If that takes care of your original question, please select "Thread Tools" from the menu link above and mark this thread as SOLVED.
It'd also be appreciated if you were to click the Add Reputation button at the foot of any of the posts of all members who helped you reach a solution.
In a slight amendment to the original question,I am now looking to add a third instruction to these formulae. So, I want the same thing to happen but ONLY if 'Yes' is selected in Column L, in the sheet named 'Driver'.
I am sure this must be more simple than I am trying to make it!
