I have the following need which must be not uncommon, but seems impossible to do.

I have the following data.....


Excel 2010
EFGH
4ref0refvalbud
5aa1215
6ab2415
7bc3515
8bd1215
9ce715
10cf1015
11dg1015
Sheet7 (2)


I need to compare the value to budget and calculate both the variance as a 'value' difference, and a 'percent' difference, AND have this within the pivot table i.e. not outside the pivot table.

So, i have two caluclated fields var=bud-val, and varpc=var/bud

But, wait, i also want to present the val, bud, var as running totals on my first group (ref0), and have the percent difference understand this.

However it doesn't seem to, with the following results. Essentially the 'percent' difference works on the 'No calulation' figures.

No matter what i try, i cannot figure this out.

Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks.

This is what i get - with the 'Expected' column being a manual calulation, and the orange items where the calculation is wrong - IMHO.
