I am creating a Pivot Table using Apache POI. I'm trying to add a data
column that will be shown as the % of Total for a given set of rows. I've
used the code below that generally works, but there doesn't seem to be a
STShowDataAs enum value for "% of Parent".
Assuming an example where there are 4 rows of data like the following:
State City Number of People % of Total
------ -------- ---------------- -----------
NY NY 9000 90%
NY Albany 1000 10%
TX Dallas 200 50%
TX Houston 200 50%
In the table below,
pivotDataFieldIndex = index of the % of total column as data column (1)
baseColumnIndex = index of the State (0)
So basically, the % of total should be the number of poeple for that
particular city divided by the sum of the number of people for that entire
state. I'm able to use PERCENT_OF_COL or PERCENT_OF_TOTAL to get the
percent of that city relative to the sum of ALL - but not able to do based
on a given State.
In excel, there is an option for "% of Parent Total" but I'm not seeing same
as a valid enum.
Any suggestions?
CTDataField fld = pt
.getCTPivotTableDefinition()
.getDataFields()
.getDataFieldArray(pivotDataFieldIndex);
if (fld != null) {
fld.setShowDataAs(STShowDataAs.PERCENT);
fld.setBaseField(baseColumnIndex);
fld.setBaseItem(baseColumnIndex);
}
