I created a pivot table a few days ago and cannot recreate the conditions in a new pivot table that should be similar. It is based off distance & time results from Google's Distance Matrix API, using the To Address for columns & For Address for rows, the To and From place names as Filters, and the Distance & Time as the Values. The Rows field also contains a Values item. I have both Distance & Time set to display the Sum, though Distance's number format is General and Time's number format is Custom (h:mm). The new table refuses to allow Time to be set as Sum.
I'm not experienced with pivot tables, so I know I did a lot of random experimentation until I arrived at the correct look for the original. Maybe someone can help me recall how I did it.
Some peculiarities about the original include: I set the appearance as tabular, no subtotals or grand totals are allowed, the OLAP Tools command is greyed out, and if I refresh the data it will inexplicably replace the valid time values with all 0:00's. That is why I am trying to recreate the original, to see if the time values are correct, and if so, to use VBA to constantly recreate the original so that times won't funk out. On the new pivot OLAP Tools isn't greyed out, and there are several additional pivot table options that are available depending on the tab.

I'll still mark as answer here even if already answered elsewhere, thanks.
