    Sumifs issue with formula

    Hi

    I have a pretty simple formula but it seems to be double counting or not sure what's really doing

    Formula in cell F2 "Summary" sheet

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    for the first item labelled "<N/A>", it's showing 57K when it should be ~20K.

    Can someone pls help me understand why that is? providing sample workbook.

    FYI, the total in the "data" sheet is 66K, and when i total my entries in summary sheet, it shows 103K. The issue is with <N/A> label. I tried to call it "Blank" and other, but no luck.

    thx in advance.

    Interestingly, if I change the <N/A> to something else in both the data tab and the summary cell G2 the formula returns what you want and expect.
    I tried to see if the values in col L were actually negative and they were and if the <N/A> in col Z matched (no add'l spaces) the <N/A> in the data tab and it did.
    if you make either of these changes it will work...=SUMIFS(Data!$L:$L,Data!$Z:$Z,"="&"<N/A>")
    or =SUMIFS(Data!$L:$L,Data!$Z:$Z,"="&G2)

    EDITED to allow you to use whole column ranges.

    It may have to do with the greater than and less than signs on either side of the N/A without the quotes.

    Edit: BTW a sumif would work as well, you don’t really need a sumifs for that.
