This function is similar to MAXIFS, but it returns the smallest number in a range, that meets a single or multiple criteria.

This function returns the largest number in a range, that meets a single or multiple criteria. You can also specify an else 'catch all' if none of the conditions are met. With this function, conditions are tested in the order that you specify. Tired of typing complicated, nested IF functions? The IFS function is the solution. But it also supports range references, in addition to cell references. First of all, it's shorter and easier to type. This new function is like CONCATENATE, but better. We continue to make improvements with Excel, and its native functions.
