>=SUM('R5:R10'!AV5:AW11)/COUNTIF('R5:R10'!AV5:AW11,">0")

COUNTIF doesn't accept 3d references.

Try one of these

=SUM('R5:R10'!AV5:AW11)/SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'R"&{5,6,7,8,9,10}&"'!AV5:AW11"),">0"))

=SUM('R5:R10'!AV5:AW11)/SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'R"&ROW(INDIRECT("5:10"))&"'!AV5:AW11"),">0"))

Hi,

I am trying to adapt your solution to do a SUMIF() based on multiple
conditions across sheets. I am basically trying to sum column B of the 3
sheets based on 2 conditions - column A should have Z and column B should
have a number greater than 15. Cell C4 in the formula below holds Z.

=SUMPRODUCT(SUM((INDIRECT("Sheet"&ROW(INDIRECT("1:3"))&"!C4:C8")=C4)*(INDIRECT("Sheet"&ROW(INDIRECT("1:3"))&"!D4:D8")>15)*(INDIRECT("Sheet"&ROW(INDIRECT("1:3"))&"!D4:D8"))))

This formula sums up the the values on the first sheet only. Where am I
going wrong?

Unfortunately, SUMPRODUCT doesn't accept 3d references either!

However, we can still use SUMPRODUCT for multiple conditions across multiple
sheets but it becomes fairly complicated and the resulting formula is
"expensive" calculation-wise.

Create this defined name

Rng
Refers to:
=ROW(INDIRECT("4:8"))

This creates a vertical array of the numbers 4:8 that correspond to the
actual range references. This is used in the OFFSET function.

And the formula:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(T(OFFSET(INDIRECT("'Sheet"&{1,2,3}&"'!C4:C8"),Rng-4,,))=C4),--(N(OFFSET(INDIRECT("'Sheet"&{1,2,3}&"'!D4:D8"),Rng-4,,))>15),N(OFFSET(INDIRECT("'Sheet"&{1,2,3}&"'!D4:D8"),Rng-4,,)))

Note that the sheet sequence *must* be a horizontal array: {1,2,3}. If you
had 50 sheets you wouldn't want to do this: {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,......50}.
You could do this:

COLUMN(INDIRECT("A:AX"))

Using COLUMN makes it a horizontal array.

This is also made somewhat easier since the sheet names follow a sequential
naming pattern. If they didn't then you'd have to list the sheet names in a
horizontal range of cells and then refer to that range.

Note the use of the T and N functions. Without those functions this wouldn't
work. We use T in the first array because we're testing that range for the
TEXT entry Z held in C4. WE use N in the other arrays because we're testing
those arrays for NUMBERS.

Rng-4

We need to calculate an array of offsets used in the OFFSET function that
equate to:

offset C4 and D4 by 0 rows
................................1 row
................................2 rows
................................3 rows

It would be the same as:

Rng-MIN(ROW(Rng))

If "it" gets much more complicated than this I would suggest using
intermediate formulas on each sheet and then summing those cells.
