SUMIF function is used to get the “total sum” of values for matching criteria across range.

SUMIF Function has two required arguments i.e. rangecriteria and optional argument i.e. [sum_range].

Syntax:
=SUMIF(range, criteria, [sum_range])
 
Syntax Description:

range argument is used to give the range of cells in which criteria needs to find,

criteria argument is used to give criteria for sum. We can give value (example “A”,”A*” >10, 50 ) or cell reference# (example: E2) in this argument,

sum_range argument is used to give cell range; those are to be added together as per the criteria mentioned above

Here, we have sales for various Locations and want to get the total sales as per the criteria given in function:
  • “Column A to B” has sales details,
  • “Column D” shows the sample criteria, that is applied,

Things to Remember:

– Criteria argument can also work with Wild characters i.e. asterisk (*), question mark (?). Asterisk will find any series of characters and Question mark will find a single character.
