    Pivot table calculated item doesn't calculate on Grand Total

    Hi there
    I've introduced a calculated field of the percentagem in the gross margin.
    Month to month and client to client, i get the percentage but on the grand total, it just doesn't calculate.
    this is the blue cell on the image below and the attatched file

    Change the formula to:
    =IF(Profit2=0,0,'Gross Margin2'/Profit2)

    BTW, it's a calculated field, not calculated item - the two are very different.
    Everyone who confuses correlation and causation ends up dead.

    hi there

    sorry. i meant calculated field.
    and the problem isn't in the data sheet. it's on the pivot table.
    The percentage is calculated on the pivot table. that's where my problem is

    I know that - you need to change the formula for the calculated field to what I posted.
