You can use programming to hide the rows with a zero total. For example:

'======================================
Sub HidePivotZeroRows()
'hide worksheet rows that contain all zeros
Dim rng As Range
For Each rng In ActiveSheet _
.PivotTables(1).DataBodyRange.Rows
If Application.Sum(rng) = 0 Then
rng.EntireRow.Hidden = True
Else
'unhide any previously hidden rows
rng.EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
Next rng
End Sub

'================================

Sub UnhidePivotRows()
'unhide all rows
Dim rng As Range
For Each rng In ActiveSheet _
.PivotTables(1).DataBodyRange.Rows
rng.EntireRow.Hidden = False
Next rng
End Sub
'====================================

I've got the same problem as Scott. Lots of rows with unwanted zeros
when calculated item inserted. Has anyone found a way of getting rid of
them?
