My Pivot Table data section contains calculated fields and normal fields...both have sub and grand totals. The calculated items are correct but. the calculated field totals are incorrect. The normal field totals are correct. The calculated field totals are ... the True total multiplied by the number of items!

I created a nice excel file with some cohort analysis regarding the number of months customers of different cohorts stay with a company. Basically I do a little manipulation on the raw sign-up data sheet and then run a pivot on it.
I want to see the cohorts in two ways:
1. number of customers.
2. $ from customers.
I have the first 1 and I want to get the second one without going through the same procedure again (i.e. manipulating the raw data). In order to get the $ terms, all I need is to multiply a $ column in each row in the columns that indicate the number of months that passed since a customer joined (see the attached example file please). When I try to do it with calculated fields in the pivot table, Excel multiplies the total number of customers with total $ from them all put together, which is of course wrong.
Any way to achieve what I want without having to created another data sheet just for $ terms?
I believe the attached excel file: dummy_for_cohort.xlsx
I have fields "Day", "Posts", "Impressions" in a pivot table and I need to create a new metric for the average Impressions per Post. Ideally, this new metric should function just like the other fields in the pivot table, and not just static, because I'd like to break it out not just by Day, but also Time, etc.
Day
Count of Posts
Sum of Impressions
Impressions Per Post

I am trying to use a summary field in the pivot table in a new calculated filed, but am unable to do so. Let me first describe the context so its easier to understand:
I have a collection of customer purchase records, which look like the following:
Customer Name, Customer ID, Purchase Amount, Activation Date
-------------------------------------------------------------
John , 100 , $150 , 2011-04-01 17:07:50.0
John , 100 , $250 , 2011-04-01 17:07:50.0
Paul , 101 , $125 , 2011-08-20 11:10:27.0
I have several 1000 records like the above and I need to create a summary report which looks like:
Customer Name, Total purchased, Activation date, Avg monthly purchase
-----------------------------------------------------------
John , $350 , 2011-04-01 , $175
The average monthly purhcase needs to be calculated based on the date of report generation. So in the case above, the average is calculated as of 2011-06-01.
In order to generate the report above, I created a pivot table with "Customer Name" in the "row labels" section and "Pruchase amount" and "Activation date" in the "values" section of the pivot table. When I try to calculate the "Avg Monthly Purchase", I'm running into the following problems:
1. The activation date is not being displayed as a date, but instead shows 0, when I set the value field settings to "Min"
2. I tried to create the "Avg Monthly Purchase" as a Calculated Field and then use the "Sum of Purchase Amount" field that the pivot table calculates. However, I'm unable to reference the "Sum of Purchase Amount" field in the calculated field.
I have a pivot table listing different company names in the first column under 'row labels' and there are calculated fields, a count and an average in columns B and C respectively. Is it possible to insert another field in column D that calculates the difference between values in column B and C (even though they are calculated fields themselves)?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWorksheet A contains two columns, that maps individual operations to their unitary cost:
COLUMN 1 = a list of operations
COLUMN 2 = the cost associated with each operation.
I can do a vlookup on this worksheet to retrieve the cost of each individual operation.
On another worksheet, I have a pivot table with a field that produces the sum of operations performed by type of operation, eg.
operation 1 was performed 5 times
operation 2 was performed 7 times
operation 3 was performed 4 times
I want to add a calculated field in the pivottable, that would output the total cost per operation. The formula for the calculated field in thepivot table would be
= operation * vlookup("name of operation","range for lookup table",2,0)
... unfortunately, "references, names and arrays are not supported in pivottable formulas".
I have a Pivot table that pulls the Avg of two fields for two months, see example below.
Avg Gross $ Avg Net $
Jan 2014 20 10
Feb 2014 30 20
sample 1.png
See sample attached.
The Avg Gross and Net is shown by going into the values and selecting "Summarized value by -> Average".
On the right side of this Pivot, what I wanted to do is to show a Avg Gross to Net $ in this pivot. So the formula should take "Avg Gross $" - "Avg Net $" = Avg Gross to Net $.
I am having trouble calculting this new field in the pivot table using a calculated field because the Calculated field pulls the variables from the existing field list and there isn't a field called "Avg Gross/Net"....I need to find a way to calculate the Avg Gross to Net into the Pivot table so I can pull a pivot graph out of it.
I have my raw data in one Worksheet and have made multiple pivot tables based off this data. Since I needed to have the same calculated fields in all these Pivot Tables, I used to simply duplicate the pivot table sheet and edit the pivots to create a new table.
Now, I'm trying to create a new pivot table from scratch, by selecting the base data table and going to "Insert Pivot Table". However I see the same Calculated Fields and upon removing, the field is removed from all other Pivot Tables.
it's possible to create new fields (variables/columns) on the fly (without adding them to the original data table).
For this example, assume I have a column for:
job code estimated hours
job code actual hours
total estimated hours
total actual hours
Excel has made it easy to run averages or sums for any of those columns, but what if I want to see what the average proportion for job code estimated hours/ total estimated hours? Is there an easy way to do it with pivot tables without adding a column to my database? I'm working in Excel 2007, my data table size is approximately 100 columns by 200 rows.
I am just starting to use the wonderful pivot tables.
I have a long list of data which basically consists of the following info:
-Company Code
-Country
-Account description
-Account balances
The pivot table is set up like so:
Row labels - Company Code, then Country
Column Labels - Account description, eg Input Tax, Output tax, clearing account, import tax, acquisition tax, set off account
Values - Account Balance
The table works perfectly.
Now what I want to do is some calculations based on the fields
- a check that Acquisition tax = the negative of the set off account, (i.e net to nil)
- a sum of the balances in the import, input and output tax accounts
- a comparison of that last figure against that in the clearing account to identify a difference
I tried to do it using basic formulae but I can't drag and drop the formula down the rows.
And I couldn't make out what the calculated cell function does. It appears to only include the titles of my data and not the individual fields.
I have two pivot tables on one sheet and I want the page fields on the second to change when I change the first pivot table. I found the below code and have applied it to one of the three page fields I have, but can't seem to duplicate it for the other page fields:
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have just started using pivot tables and I have ran into a problem with the count feature. I have an original data list that breaks down in the pivot table to:
date
events on that date
Using the pivot table facilities, I want to do a count of those who said they were going to attend, and those who actually attended. The detailing both of these columns on the original list have a true false designation. When I do the count, the summarised information only counts the number of records for each of these events, and not the 'true' field entries for each of these columns.
How do I count these two parameters for 'true' from the original list in the pivot table so I can see a comparison between these two numbers?
I'm trying to do at the moment is build a user interface for some Excel Data. Now, the natural way to do this would be to build a pivottable and let users move the fields around, and this is how the thing has worked in previous iterations of the workbook. It seems now, hoever, that we're trying to cater for users for whom pivot tables are just a little too much and to summaries data based on listboxes etc.
What I'm interested in knowing is whether there are ways of interacting with PivotTables beyond the GETPIVOTDATA function - is there any way, for example, to select different field items to show based upon an input from elsewhere? How does one tell a pivottable what to do from outside the pivottable?

I have a pivot table in the first sheet which includes the field "Date" as a column label.
In the remaining sheets, except for one, there are pivot tables based on the same underlying dataset which also include the field "Date" as a column label.
I would like to adjust the selection (i.e., exclude some dates) from the column label in the first sheet and see if it is possible to make the same adjustments automatically to the pivot tables in the remaining sheets as well.
note that the field "Date" is used as a Column label, i.e., it is not a Report filter.
I have a single workbook with multiple worksheets. Each worksheet has a different pivot table displaying a different view of the data. Each pivot table uses the same source data at worksheet1.
Each week i add new data to the end of the source data, which means that I need change the source data reference separately in each pivot table to update each pivot table view to include the new data. This is laborious as there are quite a few pivot tables.
Was wondering if there is some way of changing the pivot table source data reference on all pivot tables at the same time.
I am trying to find a way to count the total number of pivot fields in a pivot table so I can remove ghost pivot items that are no longer in the pivot table data. My code for this subroutine is as follows;
Sub RemoveGhostPivotItems()
Dim ghost As PivotItem
Dim pt As PivotTable
Set pt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables(1)
pt.ManualUpdate = True
For Count = 1 To 10
On Error Resume Next
For Each ghost In pt.PivotFields(Count).PivotItems
ghost.Delete
Next ghost
Next Count
pt.ManualUpdate = False
End Sub
My code makes an assumption that I have 10 Pivot Fields or less. It would be nice to actually know the number of Pivot Fields so my "For Count" Loop would be more efficient. In otherwords;..............

Attached is a worksheet example, of my beauty salon with 5 therapists.
The input sheet - is the shhet into which I input data on a daily basis.
Weekly inc - This sheet shows the total that each therapist made in apivot table based on the input. The week numbers are 1 to 52 (or 53) depending on each financial year (07/08, 08/09 etc).
What I want to do is either have another pivot table or to add an calculated item to the weekly inc pivot table showing me how much commission each therapist took each week? This is to be done automatically by excel.
This commission is calcluated by using the target comm figures - E.G. Leanne's target is £480 - so she has to earn £480 a week before getting a commission. So if in a week she earns £500 - she will get a commission on £20 (£500 - £480). The commission is 10%, so she will earn £2 that week.

I have and excel sheet that pulls data from an external source (ServiceNow) via MS Query.
From the exported data, I have the following:
Date opened (MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS AM/PM)
Date closed (MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS AM/PM)
calendar_stc (this exports in seconds, such as 136) (this equals date closed minus date opened for each record)
assignment group
From this export, I'm trying to make a pivot table to show the average calendar_stc per assignment group, per month, per year; but in hours, not seconds.
I thought this was an easy process, create pivot to group row data by years then by months. Then add in assignment group to to the Rows as well. From there, I added to the values section of the pivot the calendar_stc. The default, of course, is to sum each row. But I need the average so I switched it to average. Now it is showing the correct average calendar_stc in seconds per group. To make it hours, I figured I could add in a calculated field. To do that I added the formula of =calendar_stc/60/60 for the calculated field. When I hit okay, it's giving me the SUM in hours for each row. Modifying the field settings to average does not change the numbers. So I went back into the formula and modified =average(calendar_stc/60/60). And that is not working either.
Here is an example to show the math with my formula.
