    SUMIF formula is not Working

    Good morning,

    I am working with a file that lists all employees by their job type and position level. I have used the following formulas:


    =SUMIF('JOB LOCATION'!$D$8:$D$324,"15AO4",'JOB LOCATION'!$H$8:$H$324)

    =SUMIFS('JOB LOCATION'!$H$4:$H$324,'JOB LOCATION'!$D$4:$D$324,"15A*",'JOB LOCATION'!$D$4:$D$324,"*O4")


    I want to sum personnel by their position level and the formula count does not match the physical count for the specific job type and I cannot figure out why. The D column lists the job type (15A) and position level (O4) and the H column lists the number of personnel that match those criteria. I have made sure that the H column are numbers vice text. I have made sure that the 'O4' is 'O4' vice '04'. I have attached a sample of one of the 25 worksheets in the file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi RobOMor

    Welcome to the forum...

    Your 1st 15AO4 (at D17) contain a SPACE at end..

    change your formula to "15AO4*" or like below.. will definitely work..

    =SUMIFS('JOB LOCATION'!$H$4:$H$324,'JOB LOCATION'!$D$4:$D$324,"15A*",'JOB LOCATION'!$D$4:$D$324,"*O4*")

    Sorry for the delay in replying. Your suggestions worked perfectly! I had hoped that I had done all the required formatting revisions. Clearly not. Thank you very much for the help. It had been driving me crazy for the previous 2-3 days.

    welcome to the forum, RobOMor. You could also reduce the formula to this:
    =SUMIF('JOB LOCATION'!$D$4:$D$324,"15A*O4*",'JOB LOCATION'!$H$4:$H$324)

    or if the formula is going to be in the same worksheet, then:
    =SUMIF($D$4:$D$324,"15A*O4*",$H$4:$H$324)

    Thanks, if you have clicked on the * and added our rep.
