    Subtotals in Pivot Table not showing

    I am adding a field with numbers to the Rows area in a Pivot Table, and I would like to show the total (sum) of those rows underneath as a subtotal. I managed to get the subtotal line to show up by clicking Custom / Sum under Subtotals in the Field Settings, but it does not seem to add up the numbers and actually show a subtotal on that line. How do I get it to show up?

    Re: Subtotals in Pivot Table not showing

    Hi stasinek, sure, attached is a very simple mockup. Eventually the idea is to use the Pivot Table to extract only select columns from the source data, and display them in a particular sequence.

    I realize that I can move the MG column to the Values area and then it shows subtotals, but then it moves the MG column all the way to the right. I need it to show up where it currently is, with the subtotal underneath it, and with other columns following it to the right, so I have to keep the MG column in the Rows area in the proper sequence. Is that possible?

    No, not with a pivot table.

    Hello!
    The description seems still unclear to me. I would be easier for us both if you could draw manually (on a piece of paper or so) what do you need and what are you asking me to help you with I'm sure we can solve this problem!

    Thanks rorya, that's unfortunate. It would seem like such an obvious and simple functionality...

    stasinek, I was just looking for the pivot table to total the values in the MG column as a subtotal underneath, but it seems the pivot table cannot do that...

    Re: Subtotals in Pivot Table not showing

    Thanks oeldere, but I am looking to leave the MG column in its current position (between the Territory and Type columns), rather than moving it to the right...

    I think that can NOT be done.
