It was also January when I needed this for yearly tables the first time :-) and I implemented and documented it with an ERT and in the manual one year ago. It is still available only in Org release_8.3beta which you seem not to have installed yet. If you do an aggregation, in this case by year, then Thierry Banel's package Org aggregate https://github.com/tbanel/orgaggregate is very convenient as it can simplify a lot.

I couldn't see how to get that to work with orgaggregate, so I tried a different approach. My tables look like follows: * Tables #+NAME: overview | Year | Sum | |------+--------| | 2017 | 107.90 | | 2016 | 42.00 | |------+--------| #+TBLFM: $2='(org-table-get-remote-range (concat "BC_" $1) (string ?@ ?I ?I ?$ ?3));%.2f ** 2017 #+NAME: BC_2017 |--------+-------+--------| | 13.01. | foo | 38.90 | | 13.01. | bar | 69.00 | |--------+-------+--------| | | Summe | 107.90 | #+TBLFM: $3=vsum(@I..@II);%.2f For every year I have a table named BC_yyyy that sums up some stuff. What I want is a table that gives an overview about all the sums of every year. My first approach was to add a new formula to the overview table every year. That worked for the first couple of years. But I had to change the cell addresses of every existing formula when adding a new row and after a few years that became clumsy. With the above approach I only had to insert a new row into the overview table and fill in the year into the first column. I could automate that further and let Org find all tables named BC_yyyy. Maybe next year ;). Regards hmw ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
