% Diff for Grouped Months in a linked Pivot Table

[Zinbobal]

Hello,

I have a pivot table set out as below, with the dates grouped by Month, Qtr and Year. The pivot table is linked from 2 data sources

	QTR4
	OCT			NOV			DEC
	FC	AC	%DIFF	FC	AC	%DIFF	FC	AC	%DIF
APPLE	100	110	10%	50	100	100%	70	50	-29%
ORANGE	20	40	100%	20	20	0%	30	25	-20%

<tbody>
</tbody>

I am having problems with the % Diff columns. Currently I have set up a column in the original data to work it out, but when I collapse the Qtr or Year, it becomes a sum of the %'s:

	QTR4
	FC	AC	%DIFF
APPLE	220	260	81%
ORANGE	70	90	80%

<tbody>
</tbody>

I can get it to work using a calculated field, but only if the pivot table has 1 set of source data. And ideally I would like to have both sources feeding in.

As you can get the pivot table working from one data source then it will also work from two.
Just combine the data sources so that the data is in the same set up as a single source.
This is defined by SQL that will be specific to your set up. The SQL can do the calculated field.
Suggest you give one sample row from the single data source & describe the calculated field that works, and also, one sample row from each of the current sources. Plus any explanation of how the two tables are related (if joins are needed).
