Hi!


I am trying to build a formula but I haven’t quite found the solution in the community.

I have a table with different customers information, with fields such as “name”, “surname”, “email”, “phone”, “company”…

I would like to create a separate table in which I can count how many customers I have from the same company.

So let’s say I have:

Table 1:

customer 1 — Company A

customer 2 — Company A

customer 3 — Company B

customer 4 — Company C

customer 5 — Company C

customer 6 — Company C


In table 2, I would need to show:

Company A — 2

Company B — 1

Company C — 3


I have the company field built as “single select”, since I work with a limited and specific list of companies. Not sure this makes any difference in terms of formulas.


Thanks a lot in advance!

You would need to change your single select field to a linked record field, so you end up with a table of companies. Then, in your table of companies, you can create a field of type “Count” to count how many people are linked to each company.
