Hello everyone. I'm a fairly basic Excel user and my need is beyond my skills. Basically I have a large form populated with thousand of dates. I need to figure out a way to get counts by year based on a fiscal calendar rather than a normal yearly calendar. My fiscal calendar is 10/1/xx - 9/30/xx. My thoughts are to have the dates reformatted to show as a year (based on fiscal timing) and then do a count function. My thought was to do an If/Then and put in the date range for a fiscal year and have it return a value that is only a 4 digit number for the fiscal year. (11/2/24 would return 2025). I've tried working with If/Thens but I'm not having any luck getting it to compare the selected cell to a date range. There may likely be other/better ways to get the results I want but I'm running into a wall. I'm uploading a small sample of my data set. Can anyone help?

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
Well I was able to find my own solution. I got the results I needed by using COUNTIFS formulas. Thanks just the same.
