Pivot Tables

Hi,

I need to import a calculation column into a pivot table but I'm not sure which option to use in this column, i.e. sum, count, var, etc... The calculation is a simple (A+B)/C sum. Please can you advise?

Thanks,

Tatiana.

RE: Pivot Tables

Hello Tatiana

Thank you for your question.

You can only create a calculated field in a column if you are using names of fields to do the calculation (see link below); otherwise try adding an extra column into your data range for the pivot table and creating the calculation there before creating the table.

Excel tip:

Colouring cells containing formulas

Cells in a worksheet can contain values or they can contain formulas. You may wish to identify all the cells in your worksheet that contain formulas by colouring those cells.

Follow these steps:
1. Choose Edit > Go To menu, or press either F5 or Ctrl+G. Excel displays the Go To dialog box.
2. Click Special. Excel displays the Go To Special dialog box.
3. Select the Formulas radio button option.
4. Select OK.

At this point, every formula cell in the worksheet is selected, and those cells can be coloured formatted as desired.
