Add calculations to category groups in Numbers on iPad
For each group or subgroup in a categorized table, you can add a function (a predefined calculation such as sum, count, or average) to summarize the data in any column. For example, in a table with shirt sales data categorized by month, you could add a function to count the number of shirts sold each month. You can add these functions to the summary row in each category in your table.
Add a function to a summary row cell
You can add a calculation, such as count, subtotal, or average, for any column of data in any group’s summary row. The same calculation is automatically added to all groups at the same level in the category’s hierarchy.
Tap an empty cell in the summary row, tap , then choose a function.
A label row automatically appears above the summary row. These labels can’t be edited, but you can change their text style and hide them.
You can also sort groups by summary row values. See Sort table data in Numbers on iPad.
