Pivot Calculated formula: SUM(Field1)/AVG(Field2)

Question

I\'ve a simple table with some amount and interval in sec by date and product name.

Month | Product | Amount | Interval in sec
------------------------------         


        

Answer 1

In case anyone else comes across this problem, a solution that I've found is to add a helper "Count" column to your data set, where each record has a 1 entered under the "Count" field.

Then, in order to achieve the effect of an Average, you can use:

SUM(FIELD_TO_AVERAGE)/SUM(COUNT)

I believe this should work in all cases where an average is needed, but I haven't tested it very broadly.
