How to get SUM if between dates in Excel

In this article, we will learn How to get SUM if between dates in Excel

SUM values with less than, greater than or equal to given value

Sometimes we need to find the sum if only the value which lay between the required dates or say

we need to add values where the data date of the corresponding values is between the two required dates. For example finding the sales amount in a given month, week, year or any period date gap. Let's understand the formula syntax and an example to illustrate the formula usage.

SUM if between dates formula in Excel

SUMIFS function returns the sum of range if date is between the

Formula Syntax:

=SUMIFS(Sum_range , range ,">=" & date1, range, "<=" & date2)

Sum_range : range where sum is required

range : Set of dates

& : operator used to concatenate other operators.

Note: use quote ( " ) marks to provide the type of operator between as shown in syntax or example.

Example :

All of these might be confusing to understand. Let's understand how to use the function using an example. Here we need to find the TotalPrice sum if the date is between 2/20/2019 (after) & 7/9/2019 (before).

So we will use the formula to get the amount

=SUMIFS (F2:F10 , A2:A10 , ">=" & I3, A2:A10 , "<=" & J3)

F2:F10 : Sum_range

A2:A10 : range where condition is applied

">=" & I3 : greater than date value in I3(2/20/2019).

"<=" & J3 : less than date value in J3.(7/9/2019).

Use the formula as stated above and click Enter.

As you can see the formula returns 487.4, the Totalprice between dates.

For customization just change the dates in I3 & J3 cell and get the results with the formula.

Use the today function, if the end date is required as the last date. You can also use the formula for multiple criteria like date greater than given date (first criteria) and sales range (second criteria) and goes on till the criterias are finished. All these criteria is applied as AND operator (all criterias are matched) not the OR operator (only if one of the criteria matches.
