Thanks for the reply.
Actually what you suggested brings: CC1+CC2->PP1->GP, or
CC3+CC4->PP2->GP but never CC1+CC2+CC3+CC4 as it only adds once and
transfers twice.

Anyway, I'm an idiot. I realized that I could eliminate the parent
altogether and get the total that directly from the child table to the
grandparent table.

That was way too simple. Thanks!
