    Confused over pivot table calculations :-(

    Hi all,

    I have TRIED to upload my Excel file: ticket example.xlsx

    data.jpg

    Pivot.jpg

    I have an example data sheet with three columns Ticket Number (column a), Purchase Date (column b) and Group Name (column c) - I think I have uploaded this as an image file called Data:
    Attachment 862331

    In the pivot table I show the month the tickets were ordered, which group ordered them and the count of how many tickets ordered - I think I have uploaded this as an image file called Pivot:
    Attachment 862332

    I know that there are 10 tickets in a book, and can see how many tickets each group buys.

    How do I add another column (Column C) into the pivot table showing the actual number of books alongside the number of tickets in Column B please??

    I am pretty sure it is something to do with Pivot Table Calculations, but have never done this before and am struggling to get it to work

    Please note that I have also posted this query at the MrExcel website for extra extra help.

    Thanks LOADS,
    Cathy

    I am SO SORRY, I didn't spot this rule. I have edited my original message and made it clear that this is the case. Fingers crossed I will be able to get some suggestions, as I am pretty stuck!!
    Thanks loads, Cathy
