Sum tool

Sum tool button Version 1.1.0

The sum tool calculates the sum of values from selected rows.

Sum tool interface Version 1.1.0

Rows, selected via a derivative of the Formula box, are included in the calculation.

Time period determines the column(s) included in the calculation. Two options are provided:

Single includes data from a single column as defined by a single offset from the current column

Range includes data from multiple consecutive columns defined by a starting and ending offset from the current column

Note: Offsets specify a left/right shift in the grid relative to the user’s current year/column, allowing the tool to reference values from a different time period when calculating a cell’s value (e.g., a -1 year offset results in a 2026 formula being calculated with a 2025 value).

Note: See Applying tools for an explanation of how tools are used in Parfera.
