Hi,

I have a scenario,
There is an Excel sheet for defects list with the below columns,
1. ID
2. Defect Description
3. Assigned To
4. Status
5. Expected Closure Date

Say there are 100 records in the sheet.
Among these columns I will apply filter on Status and Assigned To columns
For Ex: Select Status as "Open" and Assigned to as "Mathi"
When the filter is applied among the 100 only 20 records are filtered.

This count I will get when I filtered it.
Instead of filtering the defects list sheet, whenever the defects list sheet is updated I want the summary to be updated in a different sheet.

Say there is another Sheet called Summary in that there are columns as below

Assigned To
Total Defects Count in Open State
Total Defects count in In Progress state
Total Defects count in Closed state

I don't want to use pivot table, instead I wanted a formula to update the cell against Assigned To --> Mathi(static value) Total Defects count in Open State --> (A formula to calculate the filtered record count in the Defects List sheet)

Is it possible without a pivot table.

Thanks & Regards,
Mathi.

Looks like you want to do many things with a set of data.
Looks to me the filter approach is a wrong one.

My understanding is that you want to do multiple counting with different conditions.
You should looks at SUMIF() Excel function, it may fit your needs.
