Excel Advanced course

Pivot Table Deafults

My totals within my pivot tables are defaulting to "Count" rather than "Sum". Can I change the defaults anywhere?

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Pivot Table Deafults

If you drop a non-numerical field into the Data area on a pivot table, it will default to COUNT. If the field is numerical, then the default is SUM.

Click on "field settings" to modify the function.

RE: Pivot Table Deafults

The fields in question are "Sales" and "Targets" and therefore numerical. I have managed to change them on the field settings.
