    Calculated Fields within Pivots

    Hi,.

    i am new to this so please excuse if this is incorrect way to ask for help.

    I am using a pivot table with financial data inc Sales, Costs, Margin % and % of total

    I need to add a Calculated field which will allow A calculation using each row of the % of total Vs the grand total of margin %.

    Sum is % of total*(line items Margin % - Company Margin %). This will allow for a Margin Impact % to be calculated.

    As the % of total is purely a measure of sales % of each row and not a caculated field i cannot see the % of total to use in the forula of the new Cacl field.

    sorry if this is not clear quite hard to put this into writing.

    Regards
    Simon S
