Dynamic ranges and Sumif formulas
Hi,
i have the following formula that works great with data formatted as a table.
=IF(MyMonth="Grand Total", SUMIF(Table1[Name],$K13,Table1[Total No of Units]),SUMIFS(Table1[Total No of Units],Table1[Data Month],MyMonth,Table1[Name],$K13))
however i need to run the same formula for data from a Pivot table. I have created a dynamic range for the pivot table (inc a Counta so that it will auto increase as data is added) but i cant get the same formula to work?
can you advise what i need to do? i have tried the following (where DynSchool is the name for the dynamic range i have created), but it doesn't work -
=IF(MyMonth="Grand Total", SUMIF(Dynschool[School Name],$B15,dynschool[Qty]),SUMIFS(Dynschool[Qty],dynschool[Data Month],MyMonth,Dynschool[School Name],$K15))
RE: dynamic ranges and Sumif formulas
Hi Sam,
Thank you for the forum question.
We are only using the [] in format as table tables. If you create dynamic range names in a pivot table you only need to refer to the range name.
I have attached a workbook where I have created an example. I hope this can help you.
Kind regards

RE: dynamic ranges and Sumif formulas
Hi,
That's great thank you, guess i was just too impatient.
is there a way for me to upload or email a file if I am having trouble with a particular formula?
it was working, but then somehow I've lost it all and I cant see what I've done wrong so not sure how to ask for help on here?
