Calculating in Pivot Tables

T

Teresa

I have an EXCEL spreadsheet where one colum is populated with either YES or
NO as a result of comparing two dates in two other fields. I am building a
PIVOT table and would like to count ONLY the "yes", but, the pivot is
counting the yes and no. So the total is off. Does anyone know how I can
set up a calculation in the pivot table so that it ONLY counts the Yes's?

Try this:

Drag the Yes/No field into the ROW area AND the DATA area.

That should create a Yes field and a No field on the left with their
respective counts in the data area.

To only see the Yes category, click on the column heading and uncheck No.

Does that help?

Once you've dropped your yes/no field into the "Drop Data Fields"
section, drop it again into the "Drop Column Fields" section. Then you
can uncheck "no" from the data menu.
