Hi everyone !
After reading formula guide, I have few questions regarding what’s doable with Airtable (i’m not really familiar with Excel formula, so any advice is welcome).
I’m working in a training center for Maternal assistant and life assistant for dependant person. We have various training that last from 14 hours to 35 hours. Each year, these trainee have 58 ! hours of free training. We use Airtable to follow the subscription process and to know which training they choose. It is important for us to know how many free hours they still have.
For now, we use 3 tables for that :
We follow their remaining hours on the first table.
My questions are :
Sorry for my frenchie english :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: I hope this was clear enough.
Thanks all !

You can use a Look Up field in the Subscription table to get the number of hours of training associated with each subscription. (Use a Roll Up field if there are multiple training events associated with one subscription).
You can then use a Roll Up field in your Trainee table to sum the number of hours from the trainee’s linked subscriptions. You could then use a formula field to subtract that number from 58 to get their remaining hours.

Thank you so much for your help, it works as intended !
Took me some time because testing your solution made me realize few mistakes in the tables organization. Now it works perfectly :slightly_smiling_face:
