    Calculated field returns incorrect grand total

    I have used a calculated field to multiply price by quantity
    Totals of calculated field in pivot table give incorrect results.
    How can I show the correct values in pivot?

    Thanks.

    Calculated field calculates SUM(Price)*SUM(Quantity) rather than SUM(Price*Quantity). It is easier to do the calculation in your data table and simply add the fields to the pivot table. (Your data is not in ideal format for a pivot table - Month should be one field rather than separate fields for each month.)
