Calculated Field Total in Pivot Table
I have a calculated field that contains the (*) multiplier in the formula.
The data populates properly, however the "Grand Total" which I have set up as a "sum" does not sum up properly. Total works fine if I don't have the (*) in the calculated field formula. Any ideas how I can fix? |

Paste the contents of the cell here for inspection

Field calculates January Salary Budget where "Jan Plan" is my Headcount.

Bob -- I just figured out how "Grand Total" Calculates:
It does: Sum('Jan Plan')*Sum(Salary/12) -- which is not what I want it to do. I intend it to be Sum(Jan Plan*(Salary/12)) Thanks!!

I think you will need to do the math before you hit the Pivot table.

Thanks for the reply -- not really the answer I wanted but I figured as much.
