Default Median value within a pivot table

Hi, I am trying to obtain the median value within a list of data alongside
Average, Max and Min values. I have tried setting this up as a calculated
field but it does seems to work and instead gives me the sum of that field.
Is this possible?
Thanks

Hi Bee,

Pivot Tables do not support the Median function.

You could probably find the median via formulas and display it next to the
pivot table.

Sure. Yeah, it seems to be a pretty popular request.

Write back if you have any problems with the formulas.
