"It can be done if you have a SAI Connector license, as the Sales Master report doesn't hold that field. You might need also to copy the canned Sales Master report first, before doing any changes. Add the Balance Due field to the list of…"

Leon Colton replied to Leon Colton's discussion Totals of Pivot Table
"That's what I was hoping for...unfortunately you can't summarize this field by Average, as there are zero value cells, that will distort the Total, and if you change the value field settings only for totals, it will apply these for…"

VARIANCE PERCENTAGE

To calculate monthly Variance between Actual and Budget in $ in Income Statement is easy, but the % of Variance to Budget is totally different 'ball game'.
