    Finding average only for the total value

    hi All,

    Please help me to find the average only for the total in a pivot table.

    My table has a list of customers with total sales for 12 months in each column. I need the total as last column and average after the total column.

    If I add average - its coming as an additional column for each month which I don't want.

    Thanks

    Anu

    Hi there.

    A picture is worth 1,000 words. An Excel sheet is worth 1,000 non-editable pictures.

    Please read the yellow banner about sample worksheets, at the top of the screen. Act on its guidelines and post a SMALL sample sheet complete with an explanation and some expected results.

    I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you want, so I'll have to leave it to others....

    Hi,
    Maybe such a simple table is enough?

    Re: Finding average only for the total value

    Thanks to all for helping, but maybe my request is not clear.

    I need the original value for each month along with total for 12 months; but after total average is needed only for total. this can be done manually
    but I need to do the calculation inside pivot table - so that each time there is new data, the table gets refreshed automatically

    So... you want one cell -stuck on its own - but somehow attached to the pivot table???

    Upload a sheet and MANUALLY add on the result you want to see, where you want to see it.
