I would like to include a Total at the bottom of a column based on critieria (active)

I created a list and want a total for a column to display at the bottom but I only want it to calculate the total number of rows with an "active status".

We still keep inactive employees' information, but I don't want those employees included in the calculation. I didn't want to have to create another column if possible. Is there a way to do this?

    Hi @Tasheena Parker

    Does this list in Excel workbook?

    Could you please share us with a simple sample for better analysis?

    I suggest you try Countif function to get this total number.

    According to following sample, the formula could be =COUNTIF(B1:B5,"Active Status").
