    Pivot Table help!

    Hi,

    I need to set up a pivot table to give me two sets of data.

    Its to show income and expenditure side by side. I have a seperate sheet that the pivot tables linked to. this is the statement of the transactions.

    The pivot table is picking up Expenditure description, income description, expenditure transaction value and income transaction value.

    at the moment expenditure description and income description are my row labels and sum of income and sum of expenditure are under values. Values is in column heading but i never placed this in there, it appears by itself.

    The problem is that the pivot table doesn't pick up the sum of income but it does pick up everything from the sum of expenditure I dont understand why it doesnt pick up anything

    Just as an example, i have this:

    income description: Sales
    sales income: £200

    Expenditure description: Purchases
    Purchases expenditure: £150

    I have a heading of

    Purchases £150

    But then nothing saying sales.



    Many thanks in advance!

    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook, the workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook. Don't upload a picture when you have a workbook. None of us is inclined to recreate your data. Upload the workbook and manually add an 'after' situation so that we can see what you expect. In addition clearly explain how you get the results.
