Default make cell report zero if it's a negative number

If my formula in an Excel cell reports a negative number, for the sake of
adding up values in a column (SUM) how do I get that cell to just report zero
value?

=(MAX,0,your_formula)
Or change you SUM to SUMIF, with a condition of greater than 0.
