Assuming your "specific date" is in C1 and the task number is in C2...

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A100=C1)*(B1:B100=C2))

Hi,

Assuming the data below is in two columns, you can use a pivot tables. Drag
dates to the row area and tasks to the data area

Look at the pivot table in this template on the "Tally" sheet.
