    Can I add other data to a pivot chart

    I want to add a target line to a pivot chart. The data for the target line
    would be from a different source (worksheet) to the underlying pivot table.
    Is this possible (by workaround or otherwise)?

    Re: Can I add other data to a pivot chart

    A pivot chart can only display data from the pivot table. This can be
    overcome by drawing a line and hoping it doesn't move too much. I would
    instead make a regular chart from the pivot table, and add the data for the
    additional line. To make a regular chart from a pivot table, select a blank
    cell that's not touching the pivot table and start the chart wizard. In step
    2, you must use the Series tab, and enter the ranges for each series
    separately.
