I am looking for a way to count unique values in column E based on column M = "Installer/contractor" AND column O = {"A1";"A2";"A3";"B1"B2"}

Currently my formula is: (it only includes column M)

=SUM(--(FREQUENCY(IF('Visit Data'!$M:$M="Installer/Contractor";MATCH('Visit Data'!$E:$E;'Visit Data'!$E:$E;0));ROW('Visit Data'!$E:$E)-ROW('Visit Data'!$E$3)+1)>0))

Excel Facts

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
I suggest that you update your Account details (click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

How about:

=SUM(--(FREQUENCY(IF(('Visit Data'!$M3:$M200="Installer/Contractor")*(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("|" &'Visit Data'!O3:O200&"|","|A1|A2|A3|B1|B2|"))),MATCH('Visit Data'!$E3:$E200,'Visit Data'!$E3:$E200,0)),ROW('Visit Data'!$E3:$E200)-ROW('Visit Data'!$E$3)+1)>0))

I suggest you limit the range of cells, because it is an array formula and consumes many resources.

This is really cool. Works without problems. Thanks!

It is a pity that didn't happen as this much shorter formula works for me and would for you too if you had an appropriate Excel version. Without knowing your version, I don't know if this post is a waste of time or not. ;)

=ROWS(UNIQUE(FILTER('Visit Data'!E3:E200,('Visit Data'!M3:M200="Installer/Contractor")*(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("|" &'Visit Data'!O3:O200&"|","|A1|A2|A3|B1|B2|"))))))

Cheers. Interested to see how this goes for you if you have Excel 365 with the FILTER & UNIQUE functions.
In any case looking forward to your Excel version info in your profile. ;)
BTW, you need a lower case y to get (y)
