There seems to be an error in the SUM calculation of a list of my entries ( on multiple tabs also!). In the grid view, I click the “field name” to see the SUM of the added numbers but the total is always incorrect. I used a calculator to add the numbers up manuall and I get a differnet total.

It must be a simple error, but I have not been able to find the solution.

Please help because I’m trying to use Airtable for my business and these incorrect totals are causing a serious problem for my balance sheet.

Yep - and my money is on the floating point error bug.
