Thanks for the information, could you please clarify what "entry"
means? Does it
mean org headline, or a row in an org-table?

I guess the "entries" here mean the table rows right? Please confirm.
You are correct; I should have said rows. In my file there were 1000
(+/-) rows and each row had up to three "entries", not including the
description in the first row.
For instance (without any formulas) in the following row I entered each
amount in columns 2,3 & 4.
| this was a transaction | 100.00 | 200.00 | 300.00|
So I considered this three entries. So actually there were 3,000 (+/-)
entries.
