I need to do a count of unique records in a pivot table. Every time I use the COUNT function it counts all the data? Is there an easy way to get the count of unique records? HELP!!

p.s. the records are numeric
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Suppose cells A1:A11 contain...

{"Field1"
;10
;10
;30
;10
;25
;10
;25
;30
;30
;15}

For Field2 (B2:B11) enter the formula, =1/COUNTIF($A$2:$A$11,A2), into cell B2 and copy down.

Create a PivotTable with Sum of Field2 in the DATA area. As you can see there are 4 unique Field1 values.
