Offset sum

So I have to sum a column with dates Jan-Dec.

But I only sum to the last month, so today I would sum all the numbers in rows Jan-Nov - there is data in all cells Jan-Dec

Currently we manually adjust the formula, is there any way I could automatically sum the correct range by using offset or by instructing of the current month?

Thanks

To sum a column of figures in B with dates in A up to the last day of the previous month...

=SUMIF(A:A,"<" & TODAY()-DAY(NOW()),B:B)

I changed formulas in your sheet in the file attached.

I suggest you to define a table and record values only from top to bottom. And then you can use pivot tables to see reports easily.

My sum needs to be in the same column, so I am summing k4-k15 in k17

I have a reference cell which gives the correct reporting month - so in k20 I have today()-31 which gives me Nov-14

So =SUMIF(A:A,"<" & TODAY()-DAY(NOW()),B:B)  is turned to =SUMIF(J4:J15,"=" & J20,K4:K15)

Where J20 = Nov-14
J4-J15 is Jan-Dec & K4-K15 are the numbers

Thanks

Corrected months column. This column should have actual date values and be formatted same as reporting month.
