    Is there a shorter, more elegant way of writing this? [long function]

    =COUNTIFS(Today!F:F,VLOOKUP(I12,Data!B1:F23,4,FALSE),Today!AH:AH,TRUE,Today!Q:Q,"Resolved")+COUNTIFS(Today!F:F,VLOOKUP(I12,Data!B1:F23,4,FALSE),Today!AH:AH,TRUE,Today!Q:Q,"Closed")

    This is so long and ugly, but it was the only way I could get it working.
    Note the plus sign in the middle; I'm just repeating the whole thing again...

    I tried all sorts of syntax but could not get it working with the OR operator...

    :-) Hoping for some help!

    Try this version

    =SUM(COUNTIFS(Today!F:F,VLOOKUP(I12,Data!B1:F23,4,FALSE),Today!AH:AH,TRUE,Today!Q:Q,{"Resolved","Closed"}))
