CountIF with dates

[Guest]

I have a worksheet that I am using to calculate on time delivery based on
actual ship dates and promised ship dates. I have the countif function
calculating the two dates and giving me my result for each line item. Now
what I need to do is summarize it by day of the month. I have another
worksheet that I'm using to summarize it. What I want to do is have the
summary worksheet look at the ship date column (J) and count up all the
variances greater than 2 in column (K). On the summary worksheet I have a
column list of every day of that particular month so I want put the total for
each day next to the actual day on the summary tab. On the summary tab column
(A) has the day of the month, column (B) is where I want it to put the
countif result for each day. How would I write this formula up?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(DAY(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$100)=A1))

but what about the month being queried?

The format I have for the date is 11/01/06. So I would need to query the
entire date including the month and year. Also, the formula you wrote doesn't
have the countif statement in it. I need to be able to count the number of
variances that are greater than 1, not a sum of the variances.

Column A Column B Column C
(actual) (Promised) (Variance)

11/01/06 11/03/06 -2

So what I need to do is count up the values in column C that are greater
than 1 for each day of the month. There will be multiple rows for each day so
I need to summarize each day on a separate tab in the worksheet.

That formula may well not have COUNTIF in it, but it counts, it does not
sum.

To add month and year, and count of variances

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$100)=DATE(2006,11,A1),--(Sheet1!$C$1:$C$100>1)
)

I don't think it's working. It's returning a value of 0. It should be
returning a value of 1 since there is one variance that is greater than 1.

Here's what I have as the formula:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!$J$2:$J$143)=DATE(2006,11,2),--(Sheet1!$L$2:$L$143>1))

Column (L) is where I have the formula that is calculating the variance
between the two dates.

Here is that formula in case that could be causing the problem:

=IF(J2>=I2,NETWORKDAYS(I2,J2)-1,NETWORKDAYS(I2,J2)+1)

 

[Bob Phillips]

I put a bracket in the wrong place

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!$J$2:$J$143=DATE(2006,11,2)),--(Sheet1!$L$2:$L$143>1))

Shouldn't that be 2006,1,3 with your example data?

That worked!

It should be 2006,11,2 (November 2, 2006) Why were you thinking it should be
2006,1,3?

 

[Bob Phillips]

Because your original example was

Column A Column B Column C
(actual) (Promised) (Variance)

11/01/06 11/03/06 -2


which is the 3rd.

Oh right, I guess I should have used the same dates in my examples. Sorry
about that. You were correct.

Thanks again for your help!

I have one followup question...

Say I want to add another array to this formula. I want it to only count up
the variances if column (K) has a 1 in it. How would I add this to the
formula you gave me? Or should I say how would you add it to the formula?

 

[Bob Phillips]

Just add it as another test, making sure that you use the same size range

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!$J$2:$J$143=DATE(2006,11,2)),--(Sheet1!$L$2:$L$143>1))
),--(Sheet1!$K$2:$K$143=1))
