I'm working on a pricing spreadsheet, and I'm likely stressing on this too much, but after spending this much time on it, would love for it to be perfect.
On column L, I currently have this formula:
L: =IFERROR(IFS($A5="TOTAL",SUM(L2:L4),($H5+$I5+$J5+$K5)=0,"",($H5+$I5+$J5+$K5)>0,($H5+$I5+$J5+$K5),ISBLANK($A5:$K5),""),"")

Instead of the SUM(L2:L4) argument, I'd like it to sum all cells above, but stop once a blank cell is hit. Is this possible? There could be one line to sum, or 10+. I'm not familiar with arrays or VBA, but willing to try!

I feel like my function is probably clunky, but this is the only way I could get it to work so far.

Likely this explaination is not needed, but I'd like the cell to be blank if an error or 0 result, (nothing entered in A5:K5). If A5 has "TOTAL" in it, to sum everything above until the blank cell. If anything other than TOTAL in A, then sum H5:K5.

First time posting here, so I'm hoping the mini sheet works! Please let me know if any other info is needed. Thanks so much!

I feel like I maybe did the mini sheet incorrectly, and can't see how to edit my post, so trying again!

I believe that you need to select the entire range you want to show first, otherwise it just shows the active cell (like you posted both times).
