    The document introduces the Excel SUMIFS formula, which allows summing values across ranges based on multiple criteria. SUMIFS improves upon SUMIF by allowing multiple criteria rather than just one. The SUMIFS formula takes a range to sum and at least one criteria range and criteria. It can process up to 127 criteria. This allows summing data based on complex conditions, like sales by product and region. SUMIFS works in Excel 2007 and above and also supports wildcards, like COUNTIF.
