Hi,

Not sure if this is what you want but

Define the name 'RecType' as

Formula: copy to clipboard
=OFFSET(Recommendations!$O$7,1,0,COUNTA(Recommendations!$O:$O)-1,1)


Then wherever you need the count use formulae like

Formula: copy to clipboard
=COUNTIF(RecType,"Compliance")


Formula: copy to clipboard
=COUNTIF(RecType,"Improvement")
