    Re: Help with SUMIFS function

    You're welcome.

    If you think about how this syntax works
    SUM(SUMIFS(C$2:C$11,A$2:A$11,D2,B$2:B$11,{"apple","banana"}))

    It's essentially doing 2 sumifs formulas (1 for apple, 1 for banana), and summing the results of each.
    A shortcut for
    SUM(SUMIFS(C$2:C$11,A$2:A$11,D2,B$2:B$11,"apple"),SUMIFS(C$2:C$11,A$2:A$11,D2,B$2:B$11,"banana"))


    Similarly, in the initial IF I used this
    SUM(--(COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$11,D2,$B$2:$B$11,{"apple","banana"})>0))
    This is adding the >0 operator to each countifs and returning True or False for them.
    The -- is converting the true/false to 1/0
    Then it's summed.
    Basically doing
    SUM(--(COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$11,D2,$B$2:$B$11,"apple")>0),--(COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$11,D2,$B$2:$B$11,"banana")>0))

    Only if both are true will that sum =2
    If that sum does =2, then do the sum(sumifs

    Hope that helps.
