Calculated field totals
 

Hey all,

I'm using a claculted field in my pivot table, with formula
=if(iserror(Bugid/Bugid),0,1). the field functions well, but all the
subtotals show 1, instead of the real sum of the calculated field results.
it look something like

Column1 calc.field.count
X 1
0
1
X subtotal 1

Y 0
Y subtotal 0

Z 1
Z subtotal 1

of course that X subtotal should be 2.

all the grand subtotals are also 1 / 0, with no higher values

Calculated field totals
 

You can't change the way the totals are calculated -- they'll use the
same formula as the items, instead of summing. Perhaps you could do the
calculations outside of the pivot table, or in the source data.

Was hoping to avoid that, but i see there's no other option.
thanks.
