I have the following dataset where I want to get the sum of each variable every 6 days. I can get the total sum of every 6 days using
=SUM(OFFSET($A$2,,(COLUMNS($A$5:A5)-1)*6,,6))
And I can get the total sum of each variable using
=SUMIF(A1:S1,A1,A2:S2)
But I cant get the total sum of each variable within the block of 6 days. It won't increment when I drag the formula. So the results should be
First batch Second batch Third batch
A B C A B C A B C
2 2 2 4 4 4 6 6 6

You can use SUMPRODUCT
:
=SUMPRODUCT((1:1=A6)*2:2*(COLUMN(1:1)>(INT((COLUMN()-1)/3)*6))*(COLUMN(1:1)<=(INT((COLUMN()-1)/3+1)*6)))
Edit:
To shift the column by five position, you will need to change the following parameters in the formula:
1:1
to e.g. $F$1:$W$1
COLUMN()-1
to COLUMN()-3
If you also want to change the number of columns to be summed, additionally replace the factor of 6
with a 7-1
for seven columns or 36-30
for thirty-six columns.
So formulas looks like:
batch of 6 cols
=SUMPRODUCT(($F$1:$W$1=F6)*$F$2:$W$2*(COLUMN($F$1:$W$1)>=((INT((COLUMN()-3)/3))*6))*(COLUMN($F$1:$W$1)<((INT((COLUMN()-3)/3+1))*6)))
batch of 7 cols
=SUMPRODUCT(($F$1:$Z$1=F6)*$F$2:$Z$2*(COLUMN($F$1:$Z$1)>=((INT((COLUMN()-3)/3))*7-1))*(COLUMN($F$1:$Z$1)<((INT((COLUMN()-3)/3+1))*7-1)))
batch of 36 cols
=SUMPRODUCT(($F$1:$WW$1=F6)*$F$2:$WW$2*(COLUMN($F$1:$WW$1)>=((INT((COLUMN()-3)/3))*36-30))*(COLUMN($F$1:$WW$1)<((INT((COLUMN()-3)/3+1))*36-30)))

Instead of creating a really, really, really complex formula that can be dragged right, I suggest you add a row to the data at the top that identifies the batch number. Then you can use that batch number as an additional parameter in the Sumifs(). you can hide the rows with the batch numbers if they upset your spreadsheet design.
=SUMIFS(3:3,1:1,A16,2:2,A17)
This is far easier than creating a formula that dynamically adjusts references in tiered steps of three and six.
