Hi @Pedro_GCA

To get the sum, you just multi-select all of the relevant tasks. The total comes up in the task pane:

Or, if you want to look at large numbers of tasks and don’t want the hassle of scrolling down to the bottom, just run an advanced search for all tasks associated with that custom field, with any value, then export the results to csv.

Hope that helps.
