When a shared spreadsheet total looks wrong, the first suspicion is often the formula. A lot of the time, the formula was fine until someone replaced it with the number they expected. That failure needs a visible record. Put manual corrections in an override column, leave the original formula recoverable, and mark who made the exception. Otherwise the sheet keeps the appearance of precision while losing the mechanism that made it reliable.
