How do I extract data from a dynamic range?

The situation is as follows,
WorkbookA:
Sheet1
Sheet2
Sheet3
Consolidated Sheet

Each sheet has someone doing data entry into a table (tables 1,2,3 for sheet 1,2,3) and I'm currently using a sort(Vstack) formula to add all the data into the Consolidated sheet and have it sorted by transaction date.

My issue is as follows.
I need to create a financial tracking aspect for the data entry, including the ability to track

Sum
Count

Sum by Account(header)
Count by Account(header)

And have the data broken down into monthly/yearly sections for ease of digestion/understanding

However i cant convert the Consolidated sheet into a table as this breaks the formula or is not able to go through

I also need to find a way for this to be added to a graph so that it will update itself. Is this possible?

Shortcuts for working with named ranges in Excel

If you are working with or creating named ranges in your spreadsheets, then you may find the following shortcut keys useful.

- Bring up the Define Names dialogue box on screen by using Ctrl + F3 (instead of going to Insert - Names).

- Create Names from labels you have entered into the spreadsheet by highlighting the labels and related figures, then hold down Shift + Ctrl + F3. You can then choose to create names from the top or bottom rows, or left or right columns.

- Go directly to a named range by hitting the F5 key. The Go To dialogue box will open and display any named ranges in the spreadsheet. Simply select the named range to navigate to it in the spreadsheet.
