How do I assign a cell to display the sum of a column?

I am doing an expense report for the first time.
How can I create a cell to display the sum of numbers in a given column?
Can I have a cell display the sum of specific rows that contain a specific word, like "SUPPLIES"?
Thanks!

JP,
The answers are to use the SUM function, and to use the SUMIF function, respectively.

How do I assign a user ID to the purchasing group so it shows up on table..

How do I assign a user ID to the purchasing group so it shows up on table T024? I'm trying to create a STO but am recieving the following error
Configuration of User ID is not set up in purchasing group T024 table
    Message no. 00398
Diagnosis
    Placeholder for batch input error text, this message is not output.
    Configuration of User ID is not set up in   purchasing group T024 table
Thanks in advance

Table T024 has no field for a user-Id in standard SAP
you can only tie a user to a purchsing group via authorization with user roles.
The message 00398 is a generic message that can be used for everything.
I guess this message is triggered in a userexit. Designed by a collegue of you.

How can I get pubished parameters to display the available settings

how can I get pubished parameters to display the available settings?

according to the online help, I'm supposed to click on Title to get to the titles settings as follows
"Adjust a title’s settings
You can modify a title’s default settings in the Title inspector.
Select a title in the Timeline.
Choose Window > Show Inspector (or press Command-4), and click the Title button at the top of the pane that appears.
Adjust the available settings as needed.
Note: You can also keyframe many of the settings in both the Title and Text inspectors."
Gsoing to the Text inspector, there does not seem to be anything in the menu where I can change the color of the text. Based on the photo that appears with the above instructions --it appears the ability to change ink color is under the Published Parameters that is the menu I cannot get to 'drop'

Display the Sum in the break header

Is it possible to display the Sum in the break header instead of the breaker footer? Thanks.

You can put a sum calculation anywhere you want. Insert a cell, and copy (or move) the existing sum formula into your newly created cell(s). If you stay within the block (table) then the numbers will stay the same. If you move outside the block (into a stand-alone cell, for example) then you may have to set the context of the calculation.
Note that a running total may return different results than a standard total, which makes sense.

How do you get the sum of two columns multipied together?

I can't seem to figure out how to get the sum of two columns multiplied together without having to manually type out each location (example: A1*B1+A2*B2+A3*B3, etc..). Though the idea seems to be rather simple, everything I have tried has only given me an error. I know there must be an easier way of doing this, but I get lost in the explanations given in 'help' area of numbers, can someone help me?

C3=SUMPRODUCT(A3:A18, B3:B18)
the function SUMPRODUCT() takes ranges and multiplies corresponding cells in the ranges, then adds them together.
I the case I show SUMPRODUCT() performs:
A3*B3 + A4*B4 + A5*B5 + A6*B6 + ... + A18*B18
If you want to perform the same operation on the whole column (s) you could modify the formula:
C3=SUMPRODUCT(A, B)

How to find the sum of a column

I need to find the sum of a column and use it in a different column. The following is the example.
Column names: Feedback(Good, Avg, Poor), Count(no of good, no of avg, no of poor) and %age(Feedback/sum(feedback))
I want to find the sum in Java class and also calculate the last column in java class.
Please tell me some way to do it.

oh.. ok ..thanks for letting me know.. i will formulate the question in a proper way:
This is what my UI should look like:
Rating Count Percent
Excellent 2 20
Good 6 60
Poor 1 10
Bad 1 10
Now i have the following columns in the data base:
Meaning and feedback_rating.
So the following SQL Query:
SELECT hrl.meaning rating,
sum(decode(bcpi.feedback_rating, null, 0, 1)) counted
from cmp_cwb_person_info bcpi ,
hr_lookups hrl
group by hrl.meaning
will give me the result as
rating counted
Excellent 2
Good 6
Poor 1
Bad 1
Now I want a third column as percentage : Earlier we were doing this calculation in the sql query itself, so the query was like
SELECT hrl.meaning rating,
sum(decode(bcpi.feedback_rating, null, 0, 1)) counted,
sum(decode(bcpi.feedback_rating, null, 0, 1))/(max (select count (*) from cmp_cwb_person_info bcpi ,
hr_lookups hrl )) percent
from cmp_cwb_person_info bcpi ,
hr_lookups hrl
group by hrl.meaning
Hence the third column (percent) was calculated in the sql query itself.
But now i feel that the performance of the query could be improved if we get the first two columns from the database and the calculate the third column programatically in the java code.
So this is what I want to know. How can i do that?

How do I change a cell to display values in Scientific Notation?

I have to display values that are around 0.00000000225000000
How do I get these cells to automatically display as 2.25x10^-9 ? (or 2.25E-9)
I can only find forums for how to disable.
Thank you!

select the cell then open the cell formatter and choose the format from the pop-up menu:

Every time I create a new row, I want a certain cell to display the date and time the row was created. How do I do that?

=NOW() updates the date and time continuously, I don't want to do that. I just want the date and time in that cell to stay the same after that row is created. Seems like this would be easy, but I can't figure it out.

My preferred scheme is a variant of Barry's proposal 2
create the new row
select the cell in which you want to insert the date
type the shortcut dedicated to one of the four "Insert date" services delivered with WordService from Devon Technologies (FREE)
On a French keyboard, only one of the default shortcuts apply : cmd % which inserts the long date.
But we may edit these shortcuts.

How do I 'assign a higher layer to the object on the master' (page numbers on master) I understand the layer needs to be at the top to show above placed images on pages but how do I do this?

I've added the page numbers to my master pages. They are displaying on the pages but I have images on the individual pages that are covering the numbers. I understand I need to assign a higher layer to the object but I don't understand how to do that. Please help me? Please explain a simply clearly as possible, I've read other answers but still don't understand. Wish it was as simple as select object, right click, edit layer!
Many thanks!

Layers panel;
Create new layer
Switch to Master page
Make sure new layer is on top in the Layers panel, if not drag the layer on top in the Layers panel.
Select (click once on) that top layer (pen symbol appears behind that layer in the Layer panel)
Now draw your page numbers etc on the Mastet page
From now on, select (click once on) any Layer in the Layers panel that is below the layer you used on your Master page items and create new objects in your document pages.
If you accidently created objects on a 'wrong' layer:
Select those objects
You will see a square behind the layers name in the Layers panel
Click and hold the mouse on that square and drag it behind the name of the layer you want to move the objects to.

How can I get Firefox 4 to display the URL of active tabs in the location bar so I can see and copy it?

The only URL that I ever see in the location bar is the last one I typed there. No matter which tab I activate, the last typed URL is displayed. When I need to copy the URL of an active tab to paste into an email or something I can't see it.
The location bar used to display the URL of each active tab and you could simply click in the address field and the URL would be highlighted so you could edit/copy it or jump to the end of a very long URL to see the final file name.
I can't get this feature to work and I really need this feature as I need to copy URL's quite often. When I have multiple tabs active I sometimes forget which one is for which domain and need to see the URL. It is very annoying to surf blind.
Please help me with this issue as quickly as possible so I can once again do my work easily and with the firefox browser instead of chrome. :(

A couple of possible causes.
The first is the file that stores details of browsing history and bookmarks is corrupt. For details on how to fix that see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite
Another possible cause is an add-on interfering with the location bar. To test this, use the procedure in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

How to access a Matrix cell value outside the matrix in textbox?

Hi
I have created a matrix in SSRS. Columns are grouped by Channel Type. I want to access indicated cells value outside the matrix.
After Running the report the report shows
How can I access cell values outside the matrix? Please help

Hi Aladin92,
According to your description, there is a matrix in the report, you want to reference the first value of total outside the matrix, right?
In fact, Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope. Are the both textboxes in the same group. To workaround the issue, please refer to the following steps:
1. Click and select the matrix, copy it and paste it in the report above the original matrix.
2. Right-click handle of the first row in the upper matrix, click Insert Rows, then click Inside Group-Above.
3. Right-click second cell of the first row, then click Expression.
4. In the Expression text box, type the expression like below:
="A total of "& ReportItems!Textbox5.Value & "out of 258 BC CCRs have been evaluated"
5. Set the text boxes and rows visibility to be hidden except for the text box with expression.
The following screenshots are for your reference:
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

How could we assign customized function module to the object

Hi Experts,
How could we assign z made function module to the object type.
for instance, i have prepared one z function module and want to assign segment builder.
Please help in this regard
Thanks
Mahesh Babu

Hi Thiru,
Standard Transaction Codes, have their own Function Modules for generating Outbound/Indbound Idocs. Where these Function Modules will be configured to a particular Process Codes.
For E.g for PO's
Process code : ME10 - IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERS - for creation
In case if its a Z Function Module, It depends on the case how you use IDOC types. either directly through Z Program or through Inbound/Outbound Process codes with respective Function modules.
