Pivot Tables: % not based on subtotal

Hello,

I'm hoping this is a silly question with an easy answer.

I'm attempting to make pivot tables represent monthly percentages based on yes/no data. My ideal output looks like this:

Row LabelsRegion 1Region 2Region 3Region 4
Jul
20%30%9%50%
Aug3.5%7%25%2%
Sep80%90%56%3%
Oct10%26%70%40%

<tbody>
</tbody>

Where the values are created out of a column which is filled with "yes" and "no" (I can change that to 1,0 or whatever value allows for %'s), based on whether a report got finished on time or not.

As you can see, those values don't add up to 100%, either in columns or rows. The available PivotTable options 'Show Values As' only allow for % based on subtotals.

I read you could do this via calculated field, but that option is grayed out when I attempt to put one in.

I thought it was because the data is from OLAP cubes, but apparently the data is pure excel.

Not sure what to do here. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
