I am receiving the following error:
FILTER has mismatched range sizes. Expected row count: 1759. column count: 1. Actual row count: 1, column count: 1.
The function in question is:
=IF(F2="",
"Please enter a year",
IF(F4="",
IF(F6="",
{"Same filter that built SrcTbl"},
FILTER(SrcTbl,SrcCat=F6)),
IF(F6="",
FILTER(SrcTbl,MONTH(SrcDates)=MONTH(F4&1)),
FILTER(SrcTbl,MONTH(SrcDates)=MONTH(F4&1),SrcCat=F6))))
SrcCat is a column within SrcTbl (e.g. A:A vs. A:C). The cells being checked contain a Year, a Month (or no month), and a Category (or no category). All of the filter functions work properly on their own, provided the respective cells are populated, and the function works properly if I replace the faulty filters (both containing SrcCat=F6) with a text string. It is only when a value is placed in F6 that the nested filters return this error.
Why do these filters work on their own, but not when inside this function?
instead of your:
={FILTER(CData, YEAR(CDates) =B1);
FILTER(SData, YEAR(SDates) =B1);
FILTER(CrData, YEAR(CrDates)=B1)}
you can do just:
=FILTER({CData; SData; CrData}, YEAR({CDates; SDates; CrDates})=B1)
now what went wrong:
