COUNTIFS - Dynamic conditions

6 - Meteoroid

Hi all,

 

I am currently looking for a more complex "countifs" formula.

I would like to identify in each row if the combination IDa_IDb can be found in the past five years. As an example (please see my table below):

  • In row 1, we find the combination: IDa = 20, IDb = 3, in 2016. As we do not know anything about previous years, the count should be 0.
  • In row 3, we find the combination: IDa = 20, IDb = 3, again. As we also find it in 2016 (row 1), the count should be 1.

Unfortunately, I have a dataset of more than 10 million rows and I do not know how to create such "count" column. Does anyone have an idea how to solve it? I would really appreciate it!

 

Thanks a lot!

 

Best,

Alexander
