I need help creating a countifs formula (maybe I need a sumifs, not sure) with multiple criterias.
I have an absentee spreadsheet where I track the following: "vacation" day (V), "sick" day (S) and "other" (O) daily on a monthly basis. I have my formula to add the monthly total count of all "V", "S" and "O" but want it to add only to "today's date."
My dates are on cell B1:AF1
The data are on cells B2:AF2, B3:AF3 and so forth
My total cell are on AG2,AG3 and so forth
So far I have the following formula:
=COUNTIF(B2:AF2,"=O")+COUNTIF(B2:AF2,"=S")+COUNTIF(B2:AF2,"=V")
I need to add the TODAY function and that is where I am having the issue.
I do not work much with the count if formulas or the today function.

Try this standard (non-array) formula,
=SUM(COUNTIFS(B2:AF2, {"S","V","O"}, B$1:AF$1, "<"&TODAY()))
Fill down as necessary. I'm not entirely sure from your narrative whether that <
should be a <=
or not.
In the following image, the S, V and O are counted from the left portion of the matrix (date in row 1 less than today) while the save notations on the right hal are discarded.
