Question

In column B (with a named range of 'OutputName') of my spreadsheet I'm using the following formula within each cell to extract data from an input sheet to a 'Summary' page populating each cell with a user's name.

=If(ROWS(B$7:B7)<=$C$3,INDEX(INDIRECT(B$6),SMALL(If(Status=$B$3,ROW(Status)-ROW(Input!$B$7)+1),ROWS(B$7:B7))),"") 

Then, to perform a count of these unique formulae results within the range, I'm using the following 'COUNTIF' statement: =COUNTA(OutputName)-COUNTIF(OutputName,"")

The formula works fine when the list is unfiltered, but when I apply an autofilter to another column within my data range this unique count fails to update to show the correct number of 'Filtered Unique Values'.

How I can adapt my formula to count the unique values whilst the list is either filtered or unfiltered?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Since posting my original question, I've been working on this and I've been able to find a work around this. Rather than applying more formula to allow for autofilters, I've added a series of drop down menus which allows the user to filter the information which populates the spreadsheet and maintains the 'Countif'formula.
