Excel pivot table - average of calculated sums

Question

I\'m sure this is simple, but how do I get a pivot table to display an average for a calculated sum of fields? In the simplified example, I\'ve filtered out fund x1, and the pi

Answer 1

I'm assuming that you want the value to come in any pivot table and not in a cell calculated outside the pivot table as a formula.

As a workaround you can use another pivot table, which takes the input as the original pivot table to find the average.

The second pivot table has data source as- E3:F5 or till whatever row you require.

You'll have to refresh all so that the second pivot table reflects any changes in the filter of first pivot table.

I've hidden (or you can filter it out) the grand total in the first pivot table so that the average gives the average of the sum of the amounts.
