I need to add an initial value (35) to the sum of a column like this:


Category I``````````````820+35(need to add the initial value here)



Subcategory I.1`````````500

```````Document I.1.a```300

```````Document I.1.b```200



Subcategory I.2`````````320

```````Document I.1.a```150

```````Document I.1.b```170

If it’s always 35, why not create a document with that value in under that category - I don’t think you have any other option

I don’t quite understand what you mean. There’s no need to show 35 in a document, but need to add it in the total. The total displays as one number, not a formula

Yes, so if you need to add to the total, the only way around it is to make a ‘dummy’ document which has {category 1} and that value in it. This will then add it to the total of the column. There is no way to manipulate the generated total of the column (as far as I know anyway).
