I think after update 2018 in 13:28, there is a Default name appeared in Values(Sales) small Window, if You click it there are grand totals, row totals and column totals.
I am trying to find a way to create a calculated field that references the totals and grand totals in my pivot table and Id love to know a bit more detail about what you are referring to here.
Super simple and easy to follow through. Thanks man! Can we also sort the pivot table based on month of a date? I found it to be considering only ascending and descending.
Maybe a custom function in Apps Script can do the job to get the total from the pivot. - No it does not work. But a dirty workaround is to place a ref somewhere else and refer to it in the formula. But I guess you've already did that. Commented too soon Great videos by the way.
If the header labels of your pivot table data range are in row 3 and not row 1 AND your data range is A1:N (so you can capture new data), what do you reference as the header name in your calculated field? Example: you use =Sales/COGS and it works perfectly because your header names are in row 1. If your header labels were in row 3 of the data range, what would you reference in your formula? Thanks!
Thanks for sharing very useful technique! I am struggling to search how to add cumulative total as calculation field on Pivot table. like Day 1 = 2 , Day 2 = 4, (Cumulative total becomes 6)Can you please help me in your next video?? Many thanks
Loved the vlookup! How will a sleep now! 😅 I’m also trying to find a way to build a table with change between two values per row/column. Like compare 2019 vs 2020 in % , anyone knows if this possible with calculated fields or pivot tables?
I'm trying to copy and paste a pivot table from the Tab (sheet) it was created on into my dashboard tab within the same workbook. When I copy and paste the pivot table my MAXIFS function in the pivot table calculated field stops working and the data ranges that I have referenced turn into #REF symbols. Any idea why this is occurring? The MAXIFS formula in the calculated field works fine as long as the pivot table remains on its original Tab. Thanks!
Very informative video, thanks! Around minute 13 when you create a percentage of total sales, you can (now) just do it as a "percentage of column/row." May not have been an option when you posted this years ago! hehehe My question is I'm trying to do an AVERAGEIF function using and the criteria is a binary 1 or 0 (so let's say average sales for a single state, IL in reference to your example), I have =AVERAGEIF('column_A_Title',"=1",'Column_B_Title') and I get NA as an error.. any thoughts?
Is it possible to use within "Custom Fields" formulas written with App Script (Script Editor)? My situation is that I am looking for some text processing functions and looks like the only way to bring in text processing/analysis functions into pivot tables is to use App Script for that...; My use case is pretty specific: instead of processing sales data which is mostly numeric, I need to process dataset which is result of many people filling out forms).
I'm getting a formula parse error when trying this. I even copied and pasted the column names just to be sure I'm entering the correct fields to be calculated
Thank you. It helped me a lot today. With this I made a very important document for my team.
wow, beyond helpful. thank you. Who cares if you cant spell, as long as you know the formula! Thanks a million!
I'm so thankful for your videos.
Thank you so much for the vlookup how-to!!
I can't believe I didn't know this yet. Thanks!

@@NagusJJP Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm currently running into the same issue.
Natasha Yonkof sadly, no

How the hell do these formulas work? I don't understand how how to make the formula I always get an error
Please tell me how to use pivot table purchase and issue two different sheets and output in one sheets in Google sheets.
satisfaction score may i use that to analyze data which isn't a nominal?

Great video, maybe you can also create a short How-To calculate running total day by day in Pivot Tables?
How do you hide the pivot editor so everytime you click anywhere in the pivot table it won't show?

How can I compute percentages for subgroups in a Sheets pivot tables?

Hi,
Is it possible to add a custom field which will subtract the respective row value from the grand total?
I think this video should help ua-cam.com/video/kRmHqE5vDlo/v-deo.html
Hi, I always got this error when trying a calculated field: Unknown range name: 'SALES'.
I am not getting the same "menu" when I create a calculated field. I basically can not edit the name nor Am I being able to create a formula

It's possible that AVERAGEIF requires ranges to be actual ranges from the spreadsheet.
I've created a calculated field in my pivot table and called it value_1. Does anyone know if I can reference value_1 in a subsequent calculated field?
How do you use custom filters?

Not sure, I'd be interested to know too. Never tested this.

Same here did you figure it out?
Is there a function in Google Sheets similar to the one in MS Excel that changes the Report Layout of a Pivot Table to a Compact view?
I don't think there is one.
Will filter and sort function work in pivot table.
As i would lok to sort the table in asc order on sales
You can sort and filer in pivot tables, you don't need the functions.
And how to do the Calculated field if the label of columns are bi-lingual (arabic and english)?
I never had to do this, so frankly I don't know.
hi, thanks for this! 1 q: how do I save my calculated field so that I dont need to insert the formula over and over again? thanks
6 years passed and still no solution from Google for % of total...
I don't understand your "revenue per state". 5:35 The 7 different states in Midwestern should each have a different revenue, not a single figure.
