Hello all!

Just a quick question, I am struggling with the Rollup column type to display the results to one specific row, and not the whole column.

I am creating a Food tracker app where I have:

- One tab to calculate the Calories/carbs with the quantities of the food I eat.

- The other Tab - A calendar where I can see per day How much I have eaten.

So I found the Rollup Column type to sum the calories of all the ingredients I have entered in the calculator.But I am enable to tell the database that this calculation should be saved for one day only, and not applicable to everyday in my calendar ☹

I am guessing I need to save the Rollup Sum for one specific Day = one ID, but I am blocked.

Thanks for your help!

I am blocked on my last step with something that seems so simple, but I am probably missing a step somewhere wink For a food tracker, I compute the food the user eat everyday in a tab, [https://prnt.sc/rzkx5m](https://prnt.sc/rzkx5m) and then in another tab I want to show the results show showing the results of what you ate in a specific day. (Cal / proteins / fat etc) I discovered to make a sum with the Roll up column option, but the problem is that it displays for the entire column (see screensh…
