Created attachment 196778 [details]
Example

This is what I told, I can make a marker of the value but not the cell, then if the cell is modified the marker doesn't update the value.

I attached the document with a little comment
Comment 5 Dieter 2024-10-27 12:10:56 UTC
Thank you for the sample document.

My steps:
1. Open attachment 196778 [details]
2. Change number within the bookmark in table
3. Press F9 (Update fieds)

Actual and expected result:
Field is updated.

Additional information
It is a  bit tricky to change number in bookmark. That should be improved. But this is another bug.

Workaround
It would be easier, if you insert a formula, that counts the total sum. Then mark it as a bookmark
