<paragraph id="par_id301585177069332" role="paragraph">Calc offers the Subtotals tool as a more comprehensive alternative to the <link href="text/scalc/01/04060106.xhp#Section12" name="subtotal">SUBTOTAL function</link>. In contrast to SUBTOTAL, which only works on a single array, the Subtotals tool can create subtotals for up to three arrays arranged in labeled columns. It also groups subtotals by category and sorts them automatically, thereby eliminating the need to apply AutoFilters and filter categories by hand.</paragraph>

<h2 id="hd_id211585178799496">Subtotal outline</h2>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id841585178819108">
When you use the Subtotals tool, Calc inserts an outline to the left of the row number column. This outline represents the hierarchical structure of your subtotals, and can be used to hide or show data at different levels in the hierarchy using the numbered column indicators at the top of the outline or the group indicators, denoted by plus <emph>(+)</emph> and minus <emph>(-)</emph> signs.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id371585181820075">This feature is useful if you have many subtotals, as you can simply hide low-level details, such as individual entries, to produce a high-level summary of your data.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id161585178829165">To turn off outlines, choose <menuitem>Data - Group and Outline - Remove Outline</menuitem>. To reinstate them, choose <menuitem>Data - Group and Outline - AutoOutline</menuitem>.</paragraph>
