Are you saying that you want to find the sum and then replace the individual entries with just a sum entry? If that is the case, you could use something like this:

LOOP AT itab INTO wa_itab.

ADD wa_itab-field1 to field1_sum.

ENDLOOP.

CLEAR itab.

wa_itab-field1 = field1_sum.

APPEND wa_itab TO itab.

If you just want to add a record for the sum (without deleting the others), just remove the CLEAR statement. I hope this helps.
