Note: The formula is still calculated with respect to the section of the cell. For example, for a cell in a report footer, the formula {Order.Profit} > 1000 will return True if the last Order of the detail section profited more than 1,000. To make the condition see if the total profit was greater than 1,000 use the formula Sum({Order.Profit})>1000’.

...

To quickly get a total on a Data Field, place the field in a Report or Group Footer and click the AutoSum button. Alternatively, a sum can be created with the aggSum or Sum functions. See What are formulas for more information.

Note: Do not use AutoSum on a cell with an aggregate formula such as aggSum.
