How-to Guide
1. Basic Merge Calculation Workflow
Feature entry: Data tab → Merge Calculation
- Create a new blank worksheet, or leave a blank area in the current worksheet for the result.
- Click the starting cell for the result area and make sure the target range is blank so existing content is not covered.
- Click Merge Calculation on the Data tab.
- In the dialog box, choose the function you need, such as Sum, Average, Count, Max, or Min.
- Place the cursor in the Reference box, switch to a source sheet, select the data range, and click Add.
- Repeat the same action to add other ranges that should be included in the summary.
- If the data includes headers or row labels, select Top row and Left column.
- Click OK to generate the merged calculation result in the target area.
Success Criteria
- Interface result: A new summary result appears in the target area.
- Next action available: You can review the result, adjust formatting, or run the feature again.
- No side effects: The original source ranges remain unchanged.
Tips While Using
- Common mistake: If the target area does not have enough blank space, existing content may become harder to review.
- Environment note: If the source ranges have very different structures, label matching in the result may not align as expected.
- Suggestion: Keep category labels consistent across source ranges for more accurate summaries.
