Totals and row numbers — without typing a single formula.

Turn on auto-sum for any numeric column and a running total appears in a summary row below your data. Enable auto-numbering and rows count themselves. No spreadsheet formulas required.

Benefits

Totals that update automatically

Enable auto-sum on a Number or Currency column and a summary row appears at the bottom. Add a row, change a value — the total updates instantly without any recalculation.

Row numbers that resequence themselves

Auto-numbering fills a column with sequential integers — 1, 2, 3. Add a row, delete a row, reorder — the sequence updates automatically. No manual renumbering.

Summary row exports with the table

The auto-sum row is included in PDF, Excel, and image exports — styled clearly as a summary rather than a data row. In CSV, it exports as a final row of values.

Auto-numbered cells are read-only

Auto-numbered cells are locked — you cannot type in them. This prevents accidental edits that would break the sequence. Disable auto-numbering to make the column editable again.

How it works

1

Set the column type to Number or Currency

Auto-sum is only available for Number and Currency columns. Click the type label in the column header and select the appropriate type.

2

Enable auto-sum in the Column Type panel

In the right sidebar, find the Column Type section. Toggle 'Show sum row' for any Number or Currency column. A summary row appears at the bottom of the table.

3

Or enable auto-numbering for a row counter

Toggle 'Auto-number' for any Number column to fill it with sequential integers. The column locks — values are managed automatically.

Use cases

  • Adding a total row to a budget or expense table that sums all currency values automatically
  • Numbering rows in a ranked list or ordered dataset without typing each number manually
  • Showing the total quantity or value at the bottom of an inventory table
  • Creating a numbered list of references, items, or entries that resequences when rows are added or removed
