Default Consolidating and totaling rows into single row

Can you post a small snippet of data that I can play with. How did you want
to handle Accountants in both MI and WA. My experience with this is that
there is a lot of mix and match of data.

That is helpful, Jim. However, the result I am trying to get to will end
looking like this:

Pos Title Location Pay Plan Pos Series Grade FTEs
Accountant MI AA 1111 3 3
HR Spclst WA AA 0000 1 6

So on and so forth. When I run the Pivot Table I get a very ugly table that
stretches way out to the right to accomodate the series, grade, pay plan...

Maybe I need to keep plugging away at setting up the Pivot correctly.

Thanks, again.

Pivot tables allow you to move the fields around to get the best possible
representation of the data...

Here is a sample set based on your fields
Position Title Location Pay Plan Position Series Position Grade FTEs
A Here Small 1 1 1
B There Medium 2 1 2
C Here Large 3 1 3
A There Jumbo 4 1 4
B Here Small 5 1 5
C There Medium 1 1 6
A Here Large 2 1 7
B There Jumbo 3 2 8
C Here Small 4 2 9
A There Medium 5 2 10
B Here Large 1 2 11
C There Jumbo 2 2 12
A Here Small 3 2 13
B There Medium 4 2 14

And here is apivot table of that data...

Position Title A

Average of FTEs Position Grade
Location Pay Plan 1 2 Grand Total
Here Large 7 7
Small 1 13 7
Here Total 4 13 7
There Jumbo 4 4
Medium 10 10
There Total 4 10 7
Grand Total 4 11.5 7

Fields can be in Columns or Rows...
