Custom fields not being SUM in DB views

[Paula Hípola]

Hi, 

I have created a DB view in Confluence, this DB contain some custom fields, which are type number, however I cannot SUM them because “Calculations are not currently available for this field type”, do you know how this can be solved?

Hi @Paula Hípola ! Interesting that it is not showing. I just recreated it on mine and can get it to sum.

Can you show a screenshot of what you are looking at (blurring out any details if necessary) so we can better give advice?

Hi @Harrison Ponce !

Yes, sure:

Thank you!

Ahh, thanks so much for that screenshot @Paula Hípola !

Looks like this is technically a number field in Jira, but it is through the Jira issue details field in Confluence DBs. The native number field in DBs (and others support this). There is an open suggestion to support calculations on Jira issue details fields that are number type. I would encourage you to vote, watch, and comment on it to help it gain traction!
