Default Pivot Table with Blank Cells

The field "Defect" should have a drop down associated with it. From that drop
down uncheck Blank and you should be good to go...

I am using pivot table wizard to create table and chart. I have some cells
that have no data in them and the pivot table is grouping them in a column
labeled blank and charting them on my column chart and putting them in my
chart legend. How can I prevent the blank from showing or being plotted?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
