Prerequisites

Before you begin make sure you have the following:

  • Plan: All Plan Types

  • Permission:

    • Home Folder (Template Library) – Org Controller (or higher);

    • Team Folder – Project Controller (or higher)

  • Skills Required: Dashpivot

  • Device Type: computer

  • Subscription: Dashpivot

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Open the Dashpivot template where you want to calculate a daily cost.

  2. Identify the tables containing the cost components you want to include (for example, internal labour, external labour, plant, and materials).

  3. In a formula field where you want to display the daily cost total, enter a SUM formula that references the relevant tables and columns.

  4. For example, to sum all values in the A column from three tables, enter:

    =SUM(Table1!A:A)+SUM(Table2!A:A)+SUM(Table3!A:A)

    This adds the total from each table to calculate the overall daily cost.

  5. Save the template to apply and use the daily cost calculation.
