Project Table < Impact Table

Related Project Table Record  #1 in  Impact table has a formula field 'X' that results in a currency value. (the other records have this field too, but purposely have no value)

All other related Project Table Records in Impact table have a formula field 'Y' that result in a currency value (the record  #1 has this field too, but purposely no value)

What I want to do is create field 'Z' in project impact that has a formula of [Y/Sumof X], to result in a % value.  I have created the summary field for field 'X'.

I am getting null value.

I've tried to relate a 3rd table to make it work, where both Project table and Impact table are parents of 3rd table.  But, still won't work.

For this issue here

I have created the summary field for field 'X'.  I am getting null value.

Have you set the field properties of that Summary field to "treat null as zero".   What is the value of that field in the "other" records.  Do they all calculate to null or to zero?
