Default Pivottable calculated item - how to suppress zero?

I have created a basic pivottable in Office 2007. It has three row labels
and a sum of the value of each of the row labels. I then created a
calculated item that sums a few of the "third row label" values. After I
have done so, I get this calculated item throughout the report even where
there were no values to sum from the "second row label". So the report
becomes huge with many many rows showing a zero value for the calculated
item. I am not sure if this is clear.

Ultimately, I am wondering if there is a way to suppress all rows for this
calculated item that have zeros or is there a better way to prevent this from
occurring.

Sample BEFORE the calculated item is created:

XXX 490
XXXXXXXXXXXX 490
Blue Shield Claims 26
Commercial Claims 113
Medicaid Claims 11
Medicare Claims 272
Paper Claims Processing - Level 1 68

YYY 16016
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY 16016
Commercial Claims 15839
Medicare Claims 177

Sample AFTER the calculated item is created:

XXX 490
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 0
Gov't 0
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB 0
Gov't 0
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 490
Commercial Claims 113
Paper Claims Processing - Level 1 68
Gov't 309
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC 0
Gov't 0
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD 0
Gov't 0
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 0
Gov't 0

and so on.
