SUMIFS Function in Excel

Question

What is the SUMIFS function in Excel?

Answer

The SUMIFS function adds up the data in selected cells when specific criteria are met in two or more ranges of data.  

The SUMIFS function works like the AND function in that it only sums the data if the criterion for each range is true.  
The syntax for the SUMIFS function is: =SUMIFS ( Sum_range, Criteria_range1, Criteria1, Criteria_range2, Criteria2, ...)

  • Sum_range - the range of cells to be added.
  • Criteria_range - the range of cells the function is to search.
  • Criteria - determines whether a cell in the Sum_range is to be counted or not.
