Default Pivot Table Fields: Median function?

Hi. Is there a way to summarize a field using MEDIAN? It's not one of the
options.

Hi Rosie,

No, unfortunately there is no way of using MEDIAN inside a pivot table.

Hi Rosie

there is no median function within the PT, only Average.
You could have a column outside your PT in which you sued the formula
=MEDIAN(SourceTable_Column)
inserting the correct references for the source.
