Hi Guys,

I have been searching around for an answer to this for a couple of hours and struggling to find a solution.

I would like to add a dynamic mean line into a pivot table/chart dependent on which department and month I am looking at.

Source data is set out like this where I have a formula to calculate the average:

Name
Dept
Month
Volume
Average
One

AA
January

[TD="width: 125, bgcolor: transparent"] 10
[/TD]
[TD="width: 111, bgcolor: transparent"] 25
[/TD]

[TD="width: 122, bgcolor: transparent"] Two

[/TD]
[TD="width: 119, bgcolor: transparent"] AA
[/TD]
[TD="width: 125, bgcolor: transparent"] January
[/TD]
[TD="width: 125, bgcolor: transparent"] 15

With the pivot table data currently looking like this with slicers for Name, Department and Month:

Name

Volume
Average

One

10
25

Two

15

<tbody>
[TD="width: 111, bgcolor: transparent"] 25

[/TD]

[TD="width: 122, bgcolor: transparent"] Three

[/TD]
[TD="width: 125, bgcolor: transparent"] 12
[/TD]
[TD="width: 111, bgcolor: transparent"] 25
[/TD]

[TD="width: 122, bgcolor: transparent"] Four

[/TD]
[TD="width: 125, bgcolor: transparent"] 20
[/TD]
[TD="width: 111, bgcolor: transparent"] 73

[/TD]

[TD="width: 122, bgcolor: transparent"] Five

[/TD]
[TD="width: 125, bgcolor: transparent"] 50
[/TD]
[TD="width: 111, bgcolor: transparent"] 73

[/TD]

[TD="width: 122, bgcolor: transparent"] Six

[/TD]
[TD="width: 125, bgcolor: transparent"] 150
[/TD]
[TD="width: 111, bgcolor: transparent"] 73

[/TD]

</tbody>

What I would like the pivot table to do is adjust theaverage/mean dependant on which slicer items are selected i.e.


Slicer Selections
Dept: AA
Month: January
Name: One, Two

Pivot would show

Name

Volume
Average
One

10
12.5
Two

15

<tbody>
[TD="width: 111, bgcolor: transparent"] 12.5
[/TD]

</tbody>

Thanks in advance


Stuart
