Unique values with two criteria in one column

[leadsmith]

Hi,
I really need your help!
I'm trying to count the unique values in column A that meet two criteria that are in column K. I have over 673 employees that did a communication or support. I want a number that counts the employees that did a communication and support.

Column A- employee #
Column K- Communication or Support

Criteria 1: communication & criteria 2: support

Please help and thank you!

I want to count the unique number of employees that did a support and communication.

 

[PCL]

I do not see immediatly a formula to do the job so here an UDF
Assuming data from A1 to B10
Somewhere put =Counting(A2:B10)

Option Explicit


Function Counting(WkRg As Range) As Integer
Dim EmpDic   As Object
Set EmpDic = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
Dim EmNbpDic   As Object
Set EmNbpDic = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
Dim Rg   As Range
    With EmpDic
        For Each Rg In WkRg.Columns(1).Cells
            If (.exists(Rg.Value)) Then
                If (Rg(1, 2) <> .Item(Rg.Value)) Then
                    EmNbpDic.Item(Rg.Value) = Empty
                End If
            Else
                EmpDic.Item(Rg.Value) = Rg(1, 2).Value
            End If
        Next Rg
    End With
    Counting = EmNbpDic.Count
End Function

sort your data into employee ascending then count the number of occasions when employee number equals the number above it

I want to count the unique number of employees that did a support and communication.

Control+shift+enter, not just enter:

=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH($B$2:$B$10,{"communication","support"},0)),$A$2:$A$10),$A$2:$A$10),1))
