So I am writing a script that we give the sum of all the data that has a specific tag in the same row.
Col 1 | Col 2
-------+---------
grp1 | 2
grp1 | 1
grp2 | 1
-------+---------
If I was to pass this function grp1 the result would be 3.
When I use this script over 1000 rows, I get an error "Internal Error Executing the custom function" after a short time (like 15 seconds). I thought it might be the timeout but it happens well before 30 seconds. Any ideas?
function collectgrpdata(group, startrow) {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getActiveSheet();
var lastrow = sheet.getLastRow();
var currentcell = sheet.getActiveCell();
var col = currentcell.getColumn();
var total = 0;
for(var x = startrow; x <= lastrow; x++) {
var v = sheet.getRange(x, col).getValue();
if(v != "" ) {
if (sheet.getRange(x, 2).getValue() == group) {
total += v;
}
}
}
return total
}
