Please could someone help me with how to approach calculating ‘% Achieved Cumulative’ in a pivot table?
Have search online without success.

I am trying to create a Actuals vs. Forecast pivot table to show the following metrics:

  • Actual value for month
  • Cumulative Actual YTD
  • Forecast value for month
  • Cumulative Forecast YTD
  • % Achieved Month (Actual/Forecast)
  • % Achieved Cumularive (Cumulative Actual/Cumulative Forecast)

I’d like to keep this all in a pivot table if possible as the data changes regularly.

My data table looks like this - repeated for each line of business:

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 250"]

So far I’ve been able to achieve the first 5 metrics:

  • Actual value for month - “Sum of Revenue / Actual”
  • Cumulative Actual YTD – “Show Values As Running Total in Month”
  • Forecast value for month – “Sum of Revenue / Forecast”
  • Cumulative Forecast YTD - “Show Values As Running Total in Month”
  • % Achieved Month (Actual/Forecast) – “Show Values As % of Forecast-Actuals Forecast”

It’s the final metric that I’m stuck on (though I am open to recommendations on a better all-round solution)

Please could someone could someone help me on how to approach a ‘% Achieved Cumulative’ row in a pivot table?

Thank you.
