SUMIFS function - Zoho Sheet - Help Guide

SUMIFS

Returns the sum of the given numbers based on specified conditions.

 

Syntax

 

SUMIFS(sum_range; test_range; condition; [test_range1]; [condition1];...)

sum_range: The range containing the values to add. Eg., B2:B8

test_range: The ranges you want to test for the given criteria.

condition: The condition may be:

A number, such as 15

An expression, such as 2/3 or SQRT(A1)

A text string, such as "zoho"

Other than testing for similar values in test_range for the given condition, the SUMIFS function also allows the use of >, <, >=, <=, =, and <> in the condition.

 

Remarks

  • If you don't remember the complete text you have to search for, use  .* ,  .?  and  /  instead.

            .* - Can be used to replace any number of characters. For example.,  Zyl.*  finds  Zylker
            .? - Can be used to replace a single character. For example,  Karthi.?  finds  Karthik  and  Karthic

            / - Can be used to include *, ? and / in the search term. For example, Zylker/* finds Zylker* and Karthi.?/? finds Karthik? and Karthic
