Hello,

Thank you in advance for your help. I have a complex formula issue, at least for me it is. I need a formula that has the following conditions:

I need to count the number of times a word shows in column D but only if column E says "NEW" or "RET". Then I need to take that result and if falls within a range (1-3, 4-5, 6-7, 8-9, and 10 and above) take that and have it relate to a dollar amount.

So for example if the result from column d is 4 or 5 then the dollar amount would be $7,500. If it falls within 6 - 7 then the dollars would be $8,000 and so on. How can this be accomplished with a formula. I prefer to not add columns if I don't have to. I've tried different things but I'm stumped.

Thanks again!

Bill

Hi,

May be something like this.
As you didn't provide the full details, the Criterion, Lookup Vector, and Result Vector may need adjusting:

That looks awesome. I'll try it out and let you know if it doesn't work. Thanks! I wouldn't have figured that out myself. Much appreciated!

Hello, are you looking to do something like this:

=IFERROR(LOOKUP(COUNTIFS($D$1:$D$11,"word",$E$1:$E$11,"new")+COUNTIFS($D$1:$D$11,"word",$E$1:$E$11,"ret"),{0,4,6,8,10},{5000,6000,7500,8000,10000}),0)

Correct Lookup vector per above

Correct Lookup vector per above

Did not correct the results vector to match or should the lookup vector be "{1,4,6,8,10}?
