I have solve your worksheet but you must changed the presentation of your data. You must present your data like this Invoice# Year Cat Dollar 123456 2006 Cat1 5 234567 2006 Cat1 5 345678 2006 Cat1 5 123456 2006 Cat2 4 234567 2006 Cat2 4 345678 2006 Cat2 4 123456 2006 Cat3 3 234567 2006 Cat3 3 345678 2006 Cat3 3 987654 2007 Cat1 3 876543 2007 Cat1 3 765432 2007 Cat1 3 987654 2007 Cat2 4 876543 2007 Cat2 4 765432 2007 Cat2 4 987654 2007 Cat3 5 876543 2007 Cat3 5 765432 2007 Cat3 5
And then, you put the Year in column, the Cat in Row and Dollar in the field Sum in your pivot table And you finish by changing the value setting of the Dollar item and you select % of Row total in the tab 'Show values as' On 25 août, 16:34, Robert Jacobs <robertjacob...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks in advance experts!!!
