i created a pivot table using data i downloaded from a government website.
The pivot table accurately calculates the average price per quarter.
However, when i try to calculate the year over year change in the pivot table is does not display data for the first quarter and does not provide an accurate calculation.
in order to calculate the year over year change i created a second column for price within the pivot table, i used show value as and selected % difference from, i selected base field as Date(quarter), and base item as previous.
I am using office 365.
i truly appreciate the help. Have been struggling a few hours with this.
