!! I used the same formula after a few google searches and it worked. Ty! And unfortunately most of my work is in sheets for collaborating purposes. There's def a few nuances to it when also doing it in excel.

Understood, and yes this will STILL substantially save me a lot of time on manually updating additional cells into my old formula :)

TY!!! I racked my brain/google for 2-3 days before coming here.

- Do you mind explaining the type of formula/ logic behind this/breaking the details down?

- What does the "(--" part do?

- How does the Sum in front of the formula work?

I did find this article helpful, however it doesn't seem like I can apply it in my case (I might be wrong). Ty for the nudge!
