Default calculate percentage in pivot

Hello,

Please would someone let me know if it is possible to add a field into a
pivot table which calculates each field's value as a percentage of the total?

For example, I have a pivot table which shows the following

SALES
UK 20,000
France 10,000
Spain 10,000
GRAND TOTAL 40,000

I want to add a column which shows that the UK has 50% of the Grand Total
and France and Spain have 25% each respectively.

Thanks very much, Dan

Right click on the values and select field settings. Click options and in the
"Show Data As" drop down select "% of Total"...
