Please see below. Row 3 is the header row. data contained in (b3:c12). I am looking for a way to automatically look for the last 12 populated cells in (b3:c12), and place the result in d13. for example, in the below sample data, d13 should sum (C4:C9)+(B7:B12) for a value of 71. When I later add data to cell c10, I need for d13 to now sum (C4:C10)+(b8:b12), and so on. When the data is down to d12, the next data value will be in d4 and the calculation in d13 will appear in e13. Is therre a way to do this?

Re: Sum of last "x" values avross columns

It looks like you want to sum the most recent 12 months' values, but there are only 9 rows of data for each month.

Is that right? Which means that when you have one value for 2018, you'll be summing:

- that one value for 2018, plus
- all 9 values for 2017, plus
- the last two values for 2016?

Re: Sum of last "x" values avross columns

My mistake in the table. There will never be more than 2 columns used. So in June of 2018 for instance, I want to pull Jan through Jun of 2018 and also July through December of 2017.

Re: Sum of last "x" values avross columns

C19: =SUMPRODUCT(MyData*(DATE(Years,Months,1)<=RequiredDate)*(DATE(Years,Months,1)>=1+EDATE(RequiredDate,-N)))

where:

RequiredDate: = C17 (entered as a date, not text)
n: = C18
MyData: =C4:E15
Years: =C3:E3
Months: =B4:B15

If your 2-year, 12-month monthly data reside in range B4:C15 and if there are no unpopulated cells before the latest entry, then try:

=SUM(C4:C15)+SUMIF(C4:C15,"",B4:B15)
