Core Formula Setup for Automatic Totals
The power of the RizzitGo sheet lies in these fundamental automated calculations:
1. Automatic Price Aggregation
Use the SUM
=SUM(B2:B100) // Totals all prices in column B from rows 2 to 100
This provides your immediate Total Product Cost.
2. Dynamic Weight Calculation
Combine SUMPRODUCT
=SUMPRODUCT(C2:C100, D2:D100) // Multiplies Quantity (C) by Unit Weight (D) for each row, then sums the results
This yields your Total Shipment Weight, crucial for shipping cost calculations.
3. Automated Shipping & Expense Logging
Create a dedicated section for logged expenses. A simple SUM
=SUM(F2:F50) // Totals all manually entered expenses in the 'Logged Costs' column F
This gives you a clear view of Total Paid Costs
