Convert Report Filter to Sheet Summary Formula

I have a number of reports with sophisticated filters that use an important master sheet as the source. I'd like to have the ability to create a formula from a report that I can paste into the master sheet's Sheet Summary section in a COUNTIF or SUMIF format. This function could be in the File menu under Save Filter As... and then select a SUMIF/SUMIFS or COUNTIF/COUNTIFS selection. Copy the resulting formula to the clipboard that I can paste into a sheet summary field in the source file for the report. You might have to limit this function to reports that use only one sheet as their source.

Agreed. I would be nice if one could easily capture the underlying formulas from the report filters. I often have difficulty reconciling the # of items on a report with complex filters and the formula needed for my metric sheet to display the # from the report. (double/tripple work!)

Sheet Icon Color Consistency
The 'Sheet' icon appears purple in the left navigation but blue within the sheet, creating inconsistency. Aligning icon colors across the platform would improve clarity and simplify user training. Please standardize the icon color to enhance user experience and reduce confusion during onboarding.
