    Question Pivot Table - Edit displayed values

    I have a pivot table that summarises data from a timesheet. The summary looks something like the following and shows the number of 15 minutes intervals spent on a range of categories and jobs:

    How can I have this pivot table display the number of minutes instead of the number of intervals (i.e. it needs to take the value displayed currently and multiple it by 15). I'm sure there must be some simple way to achieve this but can't figure it out (I don't want to use vba).

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    This is possible if you use 'Fields, Items & Sets' option under the 'Options' tab.

    1. Keep the Cursor in one of the cells in the Pivot Table
    2. Select Options on the Menu tab
    3. Select 'Field Sets & Items'
    4. Use 'Calculated Field' option
    5. You can insert a new field which is a multiplier of your existing field.

    I have uploaded a sample excel sheet here.

    Regards,
    Chandra

    Hi,

    Sorry for the late response.

    I have created a new template by looking at your excel sheet. Please see if this would work for you (template attached).
