Hi - what is wrong with this formula? I have used it successfully with sumproduct?
=SUMIF(H8:H106,--($B$8:$B$106="CARU")--($D$8:$D$106="Medical"))
Trying to add a column which contains the words CARU in one column and Medical in another...

Thank you,
Catherine
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
you would need to use sumifs as you are looking for multiple conditions, as well as the syntax for sumif/sumifs is much different than sumproduct...

=SUMIFS(H8:H106,$B$8:$B$106,"CARU",$D$8:$D$106,"Medical")

Your SUMIF formula is structured completely wrong. It looks like your wrote a SUMPRODUCT formula, and just swapped out the SUMPRODUCT for SUMIF.
SUMIF also only allows one conditions. SUMIFS allows more than one.
See: https://exceljet.net/excel-functions/excel-sumifs-function

So your formula should either be:
=SUMPRODUCT(H8:H106,--($B$8:$B$106="CARU")--($D$8:$D$106="Medical"))

or
=SUMIFS(H8:H106,B8:B106,"CARU",D8:D106,"Medical")

how about

=SUMIFS(H8:H106,$B$8:$B$106,"CARU",$D$8:$D$106,"Medical")
