[FONT=&quot]I have a table which summaries a list of purchases made by customers. In this table it has 3 columns, the customer ID, their max budget and the purchase amount. I wish to make a pivot table which shows compiles the sum of purchases for each customer and the % of their budget used. I had no problem making the sum of purchases amount but am having difficulty using a pivot table to make the % used field. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I've tried to make a calculated field using: = SUM( 'Purchase Amount ($)')/ 'Max Budget ($)'[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]But it does not take into account the sum of the purchase amount. It just uses 1 of the values from one purchase rather than a sum of all the purchases. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]C1 should have 22% used (with 2 purchases) and C2 with 25% used (with 3 purchases) but instead it returns C1 with 11% and C2 with 8.33%.[/FONT]
 

Excel Facts

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
Add a quotient column to the source data. I don't think calculated fields can selectively aggregate:

Welcome to the forum.

Do you have Power Pivot available?
