Hi all,

I have a Pivot Table with a count of actions against documents. I am wanting to include a Calculated Field that shows the % of total records. For example, let's say there are 3000 records, and 15 of them have Action X, I would like to have a calculated field return 0.5%. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Hi,

Can't you just drag the field into the values also, use the drop down, select value field settings, select show values as and then % of grand total?
