I am working on an interface to summarize project line items by vendor with the goal of seeing how much of each project order needs to be ordered from each vendor.  To do this, I am using the list interface and grouping line items by project and vendor.  In the interface, the only summary data shown at the vendor level is record count.  However, within the base, it gives you the option to show summary data for different columns (i.e. sum /average of column at lowest level).  Is this possible within the list interface?  Or would a different interface be more useful?

Unfortunately, that is not possible. You may want to email that as a feature request to support@airtable.com.

However, you can change that list view to a grid view in the right margin under "visualizations", and then you can choose from all the summaries that are normally offered.

The "grid view" for interfaces is sort of a hidden option, because Airtable doesn't give you the option to create a grid view when you create a new interface page. You have to start with a list view, and then change it to grid afterwards.

Also, if you don't see "visualizations" in the right margin, be sure you're clicking on the entire page instead of clicking on the list itself.

Hope this helps! If you’d like to hire the best Airtable consultant to help you with anything Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld
