    Problems with Totals and Subtotals of a Calculated Item in a Pivot Table

    Hi everyone, I have an issue with a calculated item in my pivot table, because in the totals and subtotal it shows the sum of the column but I want to show the formula that I've specified to the calculated item.

    For example, in the attached file, I have in rows the field "name" that has four values (A,B,C,D), in columns the field "Groups" that has "G1" and "G2". I add in the rows the calculated item "G1/G2" that has the formula G1/G2. The problem is that in the total the column "G1/G2" doesn't show the division of the total of "G1" and "G2".

    Someone have a solution for this problem? Thanks!

    Regards,

    Gever.

    In row 5, G1 is in fact 158% of G2. Your formula needs to be reversed - G2/G1 = 63%.

    I know the result in row 5 is fine, that is not fine is the row 9 because the result must be 94%, the cell D9 return the sum of column "G1/G2" instead the division of the cells B9 and C9.

    Thanks for your help!
