Financing
You can place a running total after a source, and you know it resets at every country.
A long plan needs intermediate figures — *that is the regional money*, *that is everything public*. A **Subtotal** is a running total placed after a chosen source.
The **Subtotal** button acts on a selected source. It stays greyed out with anything else selected, and also once that source already has one — **a source can carry at most one subtotal**.
The subtotal appears immediately after that source and shows the sum of **every source since the previous subtotal**.
Two rules, and together they do what you expect:
- **It starts counting after the previous subtotal.** So subtotals in sequence divide the list rather than nesting — each covers its own stretch, and two subtotals never double-count the same source. - **It resets at each country.** A subtotal never reaches across a country boundary, because a total mixing German and French money is not a figure anyone wants.
Put a subtotal after the last source of each meaningful block — after the regional funds, after the broadcasters. The result reads as a section total, which is what a financier is looking for.
They are display only. Adding, moving or removing one changes no other figure in the plan.
A budget's subtotals are part of its structure — a level of the tree. A financing subtotal is **attached to a single source** and sums forward from the last one. It is a marker in a list, not a level.
The country band above your rows is also not a subtotal you added: it is the plan's own structure, summing everything in that country — see [how a financing plan is structured](/kb/article/how-a-financing-plan-is-structured).
