Percentages in Pivotal
I have a pivot table I want to do percentage of total on:
Column 1 Column2 Ice Cream 32 Cake 50 Total 82 I want to add a third column that says 32 is 39% of the total 82. And 50 is 61% of the total. The system should be able to calculate this. I tried to do a search but couldn't get anything to come back. |

Percentages in Pivotal
EXCEL 2007
In your, "value column" you can right click in the Column Name / Value Field Settings / Show values as tab / change the Show values as field to % of column / OK Not quite what you want. If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Percentages in Pivotal
Hi,
Drag column 2 to the pivot once again (it should appear two times in the data area of the pivot). Right click on any one and then go to Value fields settings Show as % of column -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "JoeM" wrote in message ...
