How to parse a sheet and get a different sum for each specific data entry

I need to parse a sheet for a restaurant, I’m imputting the data for each order each waiter got, and need the sum of the orders for each waiter.


Doing it manually is gonna take forever, not well versed in Calc, hoping someone would give me a hand, thanks.

Hallo

Click some Cell in the First Column

→→Data→→Pivottable→create Pivottable…
  1. drag&drop 12/03 Pranzo into Rowfield
  2. drag&drop Vitello into DataField
  3. repeat 2. with Castrato, Vegetale, Bianco
  4. →→hit ok

Thank you very much, would it be possible to also already get a sum of the rows? Next to the Sum of Bianco

In the Pivot Table Layout dialogue, expand Options and then tick the box Total rows

Hallo
In the Source-sheet right of »Bianco« enter »TOTAL« and in the cell below »TOTAL« calculate the Sum of the Row:

=SUM(B2:F2)  #probably

pull down
in the Pivot-dialog →→Options→change the Sourcerange and drag&drop »TOTAL« into Data-field
if you have no need for the individual sums, you may drag&drop the entrys out of Data-fields

Doesnt work in that case because each of the Data-fields is its own Label.

Pefect thank you, I have multiple days, but they are few so I’m just gonna do a manual total sum for each waiter and each day at the end. Thank you very much again.
