Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, there is no way other than manually, to sum or total columns. It would also be beneficial to sum multiple columns by referencing them.

Describe the solution you'd like

simple math to add referenced columns or to total single columns. No need for formulas, just selecting sum, adding or subtracting.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Spreadsheets, ugh...

Additional context

Tracking the cost of parts or labor in a maintenance log

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the table column calculation and display paths, then determine how a user could select columns for totals, addition, or subtraction without formulas; done means these operations work for single columns and referenced multiple columns in maintenance-log data.
