I added a hardcoded column with the sames values to show the expected value.

 

Thanks in advance!

Read my article here. Take not of the section "totals don't add up" towards the end of the article.

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.

Thanks! That worked! (it is a bit slower, but nothing to worry)
