I'm trying to calculate the difference in TY vs LY numbers in a pivot table. My set up is: Rows: Client Name Sale Date (grouping by month) Columns: Years (for the TY vs LY comparison) Sum Values: Sum of Sales For example 2018 2019 Client 1 May 100 1000 I want to insert a field to show the difference so I'm thinking it's a calculated field using difference from but I can't figure out how to make that work. Thanks for any help.

I'm trying to calculate the difference in TY vs LY numbers in a pivot table. My set up is:

Rows:
Client Name
Sale Date (grouping by month)

Columns:
Years (for the TY vs LY comparison)

Sum Values:
Sum of Sales

For example

	2018	2019
Client 1
May	100	1000

I want to insert a field to show the difference so I'm thinking it's a calculated field using difference from but I can't figure out how to make that work. Thanks for any help.
