Sumif month is aug

[rae30]

column b has a date, column e has the amount.

I would like to know my total for August (data only has 2018 dates)

Try this:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(B:B)=8),E:E)

 

[Fluff]

How about
=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH($B$2:$B$100)=8),($E$2:$E$100))

result = #VALUE !

Sorry should have stated column B is a actual date, I need to know all of august...Aug 1 to 31

 

[Joe4]

It sounds like the values in column B are not valid dates
- or -
the entries in column E are not numeric, but numbers entered as text.

This is easy to confirm with the ISNUMBER function (dates are actually stored as numbers in Excel), i.e.
=ISNUMBER(B2)
=ISNUMBER(E2)

Do both of those return TRUE?
If not, the one that returns FALSE is not entered correctly.

And what is the EXACT range of your data, minus any headers?

genius...the numbers are text. Fixed it by adding 0 in a new formatted column.

Thanks

Hi,

You might also want to Clarify if the YEAR is a factor.

 

[Joe4]

You are welcome.

Note that you can also fix it in place by doing the following (no need for helper columns):
1. Highlight the column
2. Change the format to any numeric format
3. Select "Text to Columns" from the Data menu
4. Click "Finish"
