Entering the Criteria_range2 Argument
As mentioned previously, in this tutorial we are trying to match two criteria in each data record:
- Sales agents from the East sales region.
- Sales agents who have made more than 250 sales this year.
The Criteria_range2 argument indicates the range of cells the COUNTIFS is to search when trying to match the second criteria - sales agents who have sold more than 250 orders this year.
