PM:

RPG does not auto total anything (at least not RPG IV or RPGLE).
You must accumulate the total in the calcs.
Once you have your value, if the field matches a field in the printer

file,

the contents will be printed just like any other field.

Hmmm, I must be getting my computer languages confused. So, in
RPG, if I have L1, L2, and L3 defined then I have to also define 4
different accumulator fields and accumulate them myself in control specs?

Yes.

Perhaps you are thinking of Auto Report.
