Can sheet summary field formulas add existing fields?
I have a series of formulas using the sheet summary function. Is it possible to have a formula that just adds two sheet summary fields? For example, if one of my fields is Sum of A, and another is Sum of B, can I create a new formula that just adds Sum of Column A and Sum of Column B? That would be a lot simpler than creating a new formula that accomplishes what the individual formulas each achieves.

Hi @jomansfi87106.
You can reference sheet summary fields in your sheet cells by using the "#" symbol at the end (the same as you would @row or a row number)
Something like =[Sum of A]# + [Sum of B]# should work assuming you already have the sheet summary fields created.

Yes, you can probably combine the two formulas in one field instead.
What are the formulas you want to add together as one?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

I'll give that a try, that sounds like what I was hoping was possible! Thanks to you both.
