I have two tables, each with two columns:

I put them both into power pivot and create a relationship between the employee id numbers.
When I then make a pivot table from them (Department and Salary), I get all the wrong answers. What am I missing?

[TABLE="width: 364"]
<colgroup><col><col></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]Department[/TD]
[TD]Sum of Salary[/TD]

Thank you!
