    Created a PivotTable but Shipped Qty * Unit Price calculated field is not working...!

    Hi Everyone,

    here is my problem... i have created a simple PivotTable which i have the following information:

    PRODUCT NO Unit Price SUM OF Qty Shipped

    i have tried to ADD a calculated field which will multiply my Unit Price x Sum of qty shipped BUT the numbers that appears are WRONG, they sum depending on the number of rows of the PRODUCT NO... so for example if:

    111 1.20 150 in this case the total should be 180$ but because there is 3 entries (for a total of 150pcs) in
    the original table, the Total becomes 540...

    how do i fix this? Anybody can help me?

    Thanks

    William!

    Hi William,

    You need to add the formula as a new column in the source data for the pivot table. It will not work as a calculated field.

    Well, you can do either but you will probably need to update the data source if you do it afterwards.
