Am new to Excel functions and would like some help in SUMIFs (am assuming SUMIFs is the right function to use here).
Essentially, I need to match 2 arrays and sum a particular column in case 2 conditions match.
My raw Data looks something like this
--- NAV History -------- ---- Premium Paid History ----
A B C G H I
Policy Date NAV Policy Date Premium Paid
P1 31-Oct-13 280 P1 25-Oct-13 250
P1 31-Nov-13 310 P2 25-Dec-13 10
P1 31-Dec-13 550 P1 25-Dec-13 250
P2 31-Dec-13 13
The idea is to compute Total Amount Paid against each policy based on 2 conditions -
- The policies (A should match G) should match and
- The NAV date (B) should be less than or equal to premium paid date (H)
I gave it a shot using the formula
=SUMIFS(I:I,A:A,"*"&G3:G12&"*")
but I am way off from the expected value (E).
--- NAV History ------------- ---- Premium Paid History ----
A B C E G H I
Policy Date NAV Expected Policy Date Premium Paid
P1 31-Oct-13 280 250 P1 25-Oct-13 250
P1 31-Nov-13 310 250 P2 25-Dec-13 10
P1 31-Dec-13 550 500 P1 25-Dec-13 250
P2 31-Dec-13 13 10
