# How to add a total row to a table

We went ahead and created a quick pivot table with the sum of ordered products and the sum of the transactional sale price.

What we might recommend is using a another [Pivot](/cascade/tools/transform/pivot.md) tool to sum the entire Quantity Ordered and Price Each fields.

Afterwards, we’d use an [Append](/cascade/tools/combine/append.md) tool to stack the new total record from the second [Pivot](/cascade/tools/transform/pivot.md) tool beneath the first table.

Feel free to use an [Edit Columns](/cascade/tools/transform/editcolumns.md) tool and [Select Columns](/cascade/tools/transform/selectcolumns.md) tool to apply the value ‘Total’ at the bottom of the table.
