SUMIF Formula with Checkbox Criteria

Hello,

I used to be able to use a sumif formula and pull in lines values that had a check box in one reference column or not checked in another reference column, and now that formula I used in the past doesn't work, I would use ...,{column Reference}, TRUE... ...,{column Reference}, FALSE...

I can get around the issue with helper columns but I don't really want to resort to that solution, any ideas as to how I can rework my formula to correct the error?

Can you paste the exact formula you used so we can see where the error may be occuring?

=SUMIFS({FY2022 Transaction Sheet Range 6}, {FY2022 Transaction Sheet Range 3},[email protected], {FY2022 Transaction Sheet Range 4}, false, {FY2022 Transaction Sheet Range 5}, true, {FY2022 Transaction Sheet Range 7}, "6000:Goods and Services")

This is the formula in my prior data set that works and it won't work in my new sheet.

@Filippo<\/a>, the most inelegant but dead simple thing to do is this:<\/p>

=IF(IFERROR(COUNTIFS(Reviewer:Reviewer, <>\"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\", [Project Lead]:[Project Lead], [Project Lead]@row), \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\")<\/strong>=0, \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\", IFERROR(COUNTIFS(Reviewer:Reviewer, <>\"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\", [Project Lead]:[Project Lead], [Project Lead]@row), \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\")<\/strong>)<\/p>

Simplified, it's just this:<\/p>

=IF(<your formula> = 0, \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\", <your formula>)<\/p>"},{"commentID":383252,"body":"

You are very close, try this.<\/p>
