Hi, a clean pass over the whole workbook: totals that tie, formulas traced to source, one format across every sheet. What usually bites is a broken reference sitting behind a number that doesn't look wrong. How I would work it: trace precedents on every total first so the numbers are proven before anything cosmetic, a check column that reconciles each sum against its source rows, then labels, formats and notes tidied last. You get the file back with edits noted plus anything I could not reconcile. Is it one model or several sheets stitched together? I have done this on a multi entity profit and loss pack. Happy to take a couple of sheets first. Regards, Zohaib
