Pivot Table Average Question
In the left most column, we have a list of prices, followed by the
order numbers for that price in column B. In the data fields, there are amounts containing headings for Material, Labor, and Overhead, and the corresponding dollar amounts for that order number. I'm looking for a way to have an average of each column containing the Material, Labor and Overhead; for THAT price field in column A. For example: Col A has 150.00 in it. Col B contains 11 orders sold at that price and the order number is displayed Columns C-D-E have the cost data for that order. There are multiple prices listed in column A, along with their orders, and correcponding costs. Can an average of the cost elements be obtained for each price? TIA for your ideas. Pierre |

Pivot Table Average Question
Could you copy a couple of rows of this data table with the headings above it
and paste & post with your question so it is easier to understand? "Pierre" wrote: In the left most column, we have a list of prices, followed by the order numbers for that price in column B.

Thanks for ideas. Pierre |

Pivot Table Average Question
Try this pivot table layout:
Have your "Price" on the left side that determines your rows. At the top for columns have you Labor, Material, and Loads. In the data portion of the pivot table put your Amounts then format this to show an average in the field settings. To get rid of the zero's skewing the averages, you will have to go back and enter a small deciaml number or a one. Hope this helps.
