I don’t know a way to tell Org “all other tables in this file”.

But if it’s just summing up disjoint sets hierarchically you might consider column view with “7.5.1.2 Column attributes” from the manual to show the sums for each heading, like: #+COLUMNS: %20ITEM %6In_num{+;%6d} %6In_EUR{+;%6.2f} %6Out_num{+;%6d} %6Out_EUR{+;%6.2f} * total ** Institution A *** In **** Title P :PROPERTIES: :In_num: 1 :In_EUR: 45 :END: *** Out **** Title A :PROPERTIES: :Out_num: 1 :Out_EUR: 15 :END: **** Title B :PROPERTIES: :Out_num: 2 :Out_EUR: 28 :END: ** Institution B *** In **** Title Q :PROPERTIES: :In_num: 1 :In_EUR: 24 :END: *** Out **** Title C :PROPERTIES: :Out_num: 2 :Out_EUR: 31 :END: Unfortunately formatting takes place only for calculations and not for the raw source values which for me is at least a missing feature.
