Hi All,
I have created a pivot table that looks like this
[TABLE="width: 565"]
<colgroup><col><col span="3"><col></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]Count of Passed/Failed[/TD]
[TD]Passed/Failed[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Start Date[/TD]
[TD]Failed[/TD]
[TD]Passed[/TD]
[TD](blank)[/TD]
[TD]Grand Total[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Jan[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]37[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]190[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD="align: right"]227[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Feb[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]23[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]102[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD="align: right"]125[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Oct[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]52[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]190[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD="align: right"]242[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Nov[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]36[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]143[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD="align: right"]179[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Grand Total[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]148[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]625[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD="align: right"]773[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
the Failed and passed are items of the passed/Failed field
All i want to do is add a calculated field that just takes the difference from passed and diff and then add this to the pivot chart but it does not work saying i cant add formula
this is the steps im following on excel 2013
highlight pivot table
Analyze
fields, item, sets
Calculated field
name = diff
formula =Passed-Failed (i have even tried ='Passed'-'Failed' with no luck
Hopefully some can explain how to get around this
Thank YOu
