Pivot Table Turnover 23-22
Hello together,
I have the following problem. I have sales figures of my company displayed in a pivot table, based on the year. Unfortunately, I only have one field in which the turnover is displayed, which is why it is not possible for me to create a difference between year 2023 and year 2022. Is there a way to create a difference, possibly using an auxiliary table, etc.? See also the screenshots. Unfortunatly I can not get the data based on the year because I just get every sales line from our system with a certain buyer and date where it has been bought.
This is the Pivot table where a Sum is drawn based on the Item and the year.
This worked for me: ='2023'-'2022'
I have attached the workbook, but you'll want to create the formula yourself, since the labels were changed to English in my version.
Note that I turned off the grand total for rows, because Excel would include the Differenz value in the grand total.

Click on 2022 or 2023.
On the PivotTable analyze tab of the ribbon, click Fields, Items & Sets > Calculated Item...
In the Name box, enter Difference or something similar.
In the Formula box, enter =Year[2023]-Year[2022]
(This syntax is necessary because 2022 and 2023 are numbers. If you entered =2023-2022, the result would be 1)
Click Add, then click OK.
