countif excel with value in column A or column B

Question

I want to use COUNTIF in Excel, but I want to count rows where column V = yes OR column U = yes , with all the other criteria the same.

It is easy to use or with values in 1 column, such as P4:P999 = "apple" or "orange" , but how to use or over multiple columns?

Below is an Excel code sample written to be readable. The only solution I found was to use addition and rewrite the entire code, but I hate this solution because it is too long.

SUM(COUNTIFS(
     P4:P9999,  {"apple", "orange"}, 
     B4:B9999, "potato",
     AF4:AF9999, "",
     V4:V9999,  "Yes"
    )
) + 
SUM(COUNTIFS(
     P4:P9999,  {"apple", "orange"},
     B4:B9999, "potato",
     AF4:AF9999,  "",
     U4:U9999,  "Yes"
   )
)

Answer 1

切换到 SUMPRODUCT：

=SUMPRODUCT(((P4:P9999 = "apple")+(P4:P9999 = "orange"))*(B4:B999="potato")*(LEN(AF4:AF999)=0)*((V4:V9999="Yes)+(U4:U9999="Yes")>0))
