Tim,

Just want to confirm the steps again....
1) remove all subtotals from the current pivot
2) make a copy of the pivot and only paste values
3) fill in the blank rows of the pivot with the data from above (see
macro below or do it manually)
4) use the built in excel subtotal function (data-subtotal) to insert
the formulas.

If all the sub grouping totals are remove from the pivot table, after
copying and pasted value into another worksheet, I will need to insert blank
rows back into the worksheet again for each sub group. Am I right?

Wouldn't that take up even more time, as I have many sub-grouping in the
pivot table?

Currently I am in the process of doing up a Qtr 3 forecast template for the
sales man.

I use pivot table to churn out the results of the past months and the to go
months into a nice table.

Before I pass the pivot table to the salesman for their input, I need to
convert the pivot table into a static table and change all the sub total with
@sum formulars.

As the "static" pivot table has many sub total, inserting the sub total
formulars for each product groups are very tedious, not to say I have about
200+ sub products and 10 different tables.

Wondering is there a faster way to carry out this task?
It would be great if
1) I can add or change information within a Pivot table and have it stay
within the table and left the data source unchange?
2) A quick way to replace the pivot table sub total into @sum formular so
that when the figures within the "static" pivot table is changed, the sub
total will change accordingly too?

Can someone advise and help?
