You want to set the RefersTo for employees as
=OFFSET($AH$4,,,COUNTA($A$H4:$AH$3000),1))
and change the formula to
=IF(ROWS(B$5:B5)<=$B$4,INDEX(Employees,
SMALL(IF(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&Employees&"'!B9")," "&$AI$4),
IF(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&Employees&"'!B9"),"<="&$AI $5),ROW(Employees)-ROW(Emp
loyees)+1)),
ROWS(B$5:$B5))),"")

I need some help w/ Dynamic named range. First time using them.
Here's the formula that I have now w/ the range being AH4:AH9.
=IF(ROWS(B$5:B5)<=$B$4,INDEX(*$AH$4:$AH$9*,SMALL(I F(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&*$A
H$4:$AH$9*&"'!B9"),""&$AI$4),IF(COUNTIF(INDIRECT( "'"&*$AH$4:$AH$9*&"'!B9"),
"<="&$AI$5),ROW(*$AH$4:$AH$*9)-ROW($AH$4)+1)),ROWS(B$5:$B5))),"")
Now I'm not sure if this is how I'm suppose to do it, but let's say I
want range AH4:AH30. So I highlight that and click insert, name,
define and name it - Employees. Do I have to change the "Refers to"
formula or keep it as is? Do I need to use an Offset formula there and
if so what would that be? Finally after that is all figured out, do I
change *$AH$4:$AH$9* to Employees?
Just to let you know the purpose, I have 6 employees, but want my
formula to change if I add employees or subtract some. The formula is
used for a full year, so 365 times and I want it to update
automatically if I add employees.
Any help appreciated. Am I anywhere close? Thanks.
