Hi.

This is my first time in this forum.

I have a table in this link https://filehost.net/234a1151ff7695d3
and i cant figure a formula that works

The criteria are inside file, but i need a formula that counts products sold in each day, by year, between a min and max value. this is the easy part and i can make with a countifs formula.

BUT, in this example my products are apples and oranges and both need to meet those criteria but also must be sold in same day.

Which means apples+orange sold together in each day (does not count sold alone in a day), by year, between a min and max value.

If it looks confusing, maybe linked excel table will show what i mean. i used colors to represent which lines will be counted for each criteria.

I hope someone can help me, if some formula is possible LOL

Thank you
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Adding an or type of criteria to countifs goes something like

=SUM(COUNTIFS(Range1,Criteria,Range2,{"apples","oranges"}))

That would be the equivalent of doing
COUNTIFS(Range1,Criteria,Range2,"apples")+COUNTIFS(Range1,Criteria,Range2,"oranges")

Hope that helps.

formula must include:
apples and oranges qtd sold must be between min and max values in table 2
also can only count apples and oranges are sold together, in the same day

those formulas also include those criteria ?

That was really just a general syntax suggestion, not really specific.

You said
The criteria are inside file, but i need a formula that counts products sold in each day, by year, between a min and max value. this is the easy part and i can make with a countifs formula.
So I was just showing how to take one criteria of a easy countifs function, and make it test for apples or oranges.
Can you post that formula, then we can add in criteria to test for either apples or oranges.

the formulas
=(COUNTIFS(F4:F17;"apple";G4:G17;"<"&L4;C4:C17;2015))+(COUNTIFS(F4:F17;"apple";G4:G17;">"&K4;C4:C17;2015))
=(COUNTIFS(F4:F17;"orange";G4:G17;"<"&L4;C4:C17;2015))+(COUNTIFS(F4:F17;"orange";G4:G17;">"&K4;C4:C17;2015))

i want to merge them, but the final formula must consider apples+oranges sold both in same day.

Those formulas don't make a lot of sense.
Why they are adding the result of 2 different countifs, one doing > <l4 doing="" other="" the="" and="">K4 and the other doing < L4?
Is that supposed to be the 'between min and max' criteria?

I would think that should be
=COUNTIFS(F4:F17;"apple";G4:G17;"<"&L4;G4:G17;">"&K4;C4:C17;2015)

Now to make that count apples or oranges
=SUM(COUNTIFS(F4:F17;{"apple";"orange"};G4:G17;"<"&L4;G4:G17;">"&K4;C4:C17;2015))


Now, how do we tell if they're on the same day? Which Day?
Is there another column that tells us which day they were sold?</l4>

Yes, that was suposed to be the formula, the one i used does not work correctly. sorry.

=SUM(COUNTIFS(F4:F17;{"apple";"orange"};G4:G17;"<"&L4;G4:G17;">"&K4;C4:C17;2015))

oranges must be >K5 and <L5 (they are different than apples)

also there is a column with date E4:E17 (dd-mm-yyyy) and yes - i i want to count only if they are both sold in same day
ex: 01-01-2015 have 1 line (apples sold only) and should not count in the formula.
02-05-2015 have 2 lines in table (1 for apples sold and another for oranges sold) and should be counted in the formula

is it possible ?

Put spaces around < and > symbols, forum software tends to treat them as html code and stuff gets cut off.

but count as 1... 1 day which all criteria is met.

i hope im explaining it good.
