Description Trey 2022-10-12 04:36:01 UTC
Description:
I have a finance spreadsheet that I use to manage my personal finances.  All data cells are formatted as numbers. Each column represents a paycheck and starts with a total row followed by category rows and finally a total expense row and net row.
The first row and each category row are set manually, but the total expense row should be calculated by the SUM of all category cells in that column, and the net row should be that column's total - total expense (e.g. A4-A24).

I needed to insert a new column for September, so I did and copied my formatting and equations from the previous column.  Unfortunately, the autocalc feature does not work on this new column.  When I change the values of the manually entered cells (V4 through V23) the cells that reference them do not update.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create table with dummy data formatted as numbers and a row at the bottom to sum the data above
2. insert a new column
3.Copy function over to new column and change data in the new column's cells

Actual Results:
The function cells did not register changes to the cells the referenced.

Expected Results:
The autocalc feature should have automatically updated my SUM cell to reflect changes to my data


Reproducible: Didn't try


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I tried disabling and re-enabling autocalc for all related cells.  It did not work.
