Rollup fields

A Rollup field takes a field from a record's linked records and aggregates it into a single value on this record — the total value of a company's deals, the number of open ones for an account, the latest order date for a customer. It updates automatically as the linked records change.

Rollup is available on higher plans — see the pricing page. To compute a value within a single record instead, use a Formula.

Configure a Rollup

Create a field, choose the Rollup type, and set three things:

  1. Relation — the link field (Link single record or Link multiple records) whose linked records you want to roll up.
  2. Target field — which field on those linked records to aggregate.
  3. Function — how to aggregate it (below).

Example: on a Company linked to Deals, set Relation = Deals, Target field = Value, Function = Sum to show total effort. Switch the function to Count not empty to show how many tasks are estimated.

Aggregation functions

The functions available depend on the target field's type.

Percent checked / Percent unchecked Share of checked / unchecked.

Rollup vs. Lookup

Both read across a link field — but a Lookup shows a value from linked records as-is, while a Rollup aggregates many linked values into one number or summary.
