Is it possible to use functions like Scan, Reduce, Lambda etc in calculated fields in excel pivot table?

For example, consider the table below. I would like to have a running total as a calculated field. I can use Scan function outside pivot table to get the running totals. Tried using it in calculated field, but not getting any result.

Base table:
Book1
CD

32-may-2120
415-jul-215
52-mar-2230
629-abr-237

Excel Facts

Format cells as currency
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+4 to format cells as currency. (Shift 4 is the $ sign).
There is no need to have a calculated field. You can go into the field settings for the amount, go the the tab that says 'Show Values As', and select 'Running Total In' from the dropdown.

Thanks, @irobbo314. It works for running total & anything available in the drop down in `show value as´ option.

However, I would to like to know if it is possible to use the functions like scan, let, lambda, reduce etc in the calculated fields.
