Hello,

I have the below fields in my spreadsheet that I would like to place in a pivot table. I want to calculate the sales turn for the aggregated with the formula (BOH $/Sales $)*# of weeks in the month.

I have tried using an if statement in the calculated field =if(weeks in month>4, (BOH $/Sales $)*5, (BOH $/Sales $)*4) however this ends up multiplying everything by 5. Is there another way to accomplish this? Please advise!

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
Welcome to Mr Excel forum

Maybe...
='BOH $'/'Sales $'*'Weeks in Month'

M.

Unfortunately when I do this it divides by the sum of that column. So it ends up dividing by a number larger than 4 or 5. I need to just divide by 4 or 5 depending on which month it's aggregating.

I'm not sure if I understand what you want.
Is not this?

Try putting parentheses around the dollar amounts and adding IFERROR:
Code:
[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]=IFERROR(('BOH $'/'Sales $')*'Weeks in Month',0)[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]

I tried with the iferror formula. The issue is the pivot table is summing the # of weeks column so I need a work around. Shown a different way, the right most column is the result I'm looking for. Using January as an example this formula is =BOH $/Sales $ *4. The January total is 1.5=$5,040/$13,527*4. For March however I would need to use =BOH $/Sales $ *5. Or 5.0=$22,789/$22,926*5.
