    Count with multiple criteria (Date, Time and Other Criteria)

    Hello All,

    I've has a "TaskName" in column M and "ActiveDate" in Column N.

    "Active Date" is a number and with format as 5/31/2018 10:46:14 AM

    I'm trying to count "date and time range", buy my date criteria and time criteria are in different cells.

    This the formula I have used which is giving me incorrect values.

    =COUNTIFS(TaskNm,F$7,ActvDt,">="&$E$4+$D8,ActvDt,"<"&$H$4+$E8)

    F7 = TaskName (I've defined name to it as shown in formula)

    =OFFSET('Raw Data'!$M$2,,,COUNTA('Raw Data'!$M$2:$M$9999))

    E4 & H4 are dates

    E4 & E8 are Times

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    Pictures are of little value. Honestly, no one wants to re-type your data to try and solve your issue. Additionally, we would only be guessing at how your data was structured, ie. formulas, formatting, etc. Additionally, due to how some browsers behave, many of our members cannot see uploaded pictures/images. Please do not take this route.

    Please attach a sample file that represents what you have. The structure of your attachment should be the same structure as your actual data. Any proprietary information should be changed.

    Include in the attachment any code you're currently using (whether it works or not) and an "After" of what you wish the output to be.

    To attach a file to your post,
    click advanced (next to quick post),
    scroll down until you see "manage file",
    click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
    click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"

    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
    You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.

    Re: Count with multiple criteria (Date, Time and Other Criteria)

    I cracked it. I got guidance from "Variatus - Teach Excel".

    Hi Variatus,

    Thank you so much!! You are an awesome Excel Guru.

    I cracked it by using 1 Helper cell.... I was trying it for 2 days and was struggling to crack it. But I remembered to take help from this site as I did it once.

    Well, I just two test helper cell to evaluate the conditions of "Active Time". Then I incorporated those conditions in Countifs.

    As you suggested I evaluated TRUES and FASLSES suggestion and cracked it

    By inducing below formula:

    =COUNTIFS($M$2:$M$165,AU$8,$N$2:$N$165,">="&DATE(YEAR($AS$5),MONTH($AS$5),DAY($AS$5)),$O$2:$O$165,">="&TIME(HOUR($AS10),MINUTE($AS10),SECOND($AS10)),$N$2:$N$165,"<"&DATE(YEAR($AT$5),MONTH($AT$5),DAY($AT$5)),$O$2:$O$165,"<"&TIME(HOUR($AT10),MINUTE($AT10),SECOND($AT10)))

    Sorry, I haven't used define name for arrays….

    If you can review the attachment and give me any better solution would be an another great learning from me.

    Thank you so much once again.

    Bravo!!!

    That is music to our ears.

    Your judicious use of helper columns is to be applauded as well as a clear understanding that dates and times are numbers.

    Having said that an offer of "better solution" I don't have.

    I can only offer further encouragement to explore alternatives to COUNTIFS. I offer the below. We often see SUMPRODUCT as one of those alternatives.

    See if this is of help.
