I have a table that has group/division names, employee names, and then tracking an attendance measure for multiple days throughout the year. I'm trying to create a table at the top so that division leads can type in the day and see how many people they had check in that day. Checkins start with numbers (only important because if someone calls in sick, they will be listed as "sick," "vacation," etc. and not start with a number).
I've been trying to build a formula (Excel 2010) for each of the groups, but am having problems merging it with the countif function
So far, I have =countif(index(J8:AN108,0,MATCH(J4,J7:AN7,0)))
the problem being that it counts all the attendees for the day and I haven't been able to figure out how to get it to count each group separately based on the group name in column B.

Anyone have suggestions?

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.

Hi,

A bit confused about the usage of index/match within countif.
If you want to count items based on multiple criteria (as that's what your aiming for) take a look at COUNTIFS.
Share a mockup of data and your draft report and we can help somewhat extensive.

So sorry, I thought I had attached a mockup!
The 0s are where I've been trying to insert the formula (obviously I would adjust the formula for the Emerald division to be column K, Amethyst to be column L, etc.)
