Automatic sum of all children and grandchildren

Nathaniel

I have a budget sheet that needs to automatically sum the cumulative totals of all levels of children including new grandchildren as they are added, but the =sum(children()) formula does not include grandchildren rows.

Is there a formula able to be contained within a single cell to do this?

Hi @Nathaniel

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

=SUM(DESCENDANTS())

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
