My Raw table looks like this.
When I create a Pivot it looks like the below screenshot. I have filtered the type column and not actual and others. Now i want to subtract these two columns and create just one more additional column. Maybe some column will show 0 here as I have created dummy data, Sorry for that
Can somebody please help
You will need to create a calculated field/column
This is a very easy and simple guide to do so here: How to create a Calculated Field in Pivot Table
Because your data set is not complete, I am unable to replicate and provide results.

I'm working on achieving the following data transformation/wrangling within Power Query but can't seem to get there on my own. i have read a lof of different questions and answers on the forum but it seems just a bit beyond my grasp.
I have a table which has the ticker of a specific currency in the first column.
There is a second column with the date and time when a certain event, related to that specific currency, happens. This second column is basically the different 5-minute intervals which exist on any given day.
Finally there is a third column which describes the magnitude of the event.
The table therefore looks like this
What I would like to do in power Query is transpose the uniques name of the currencies as the first row of a new table. The first column of this table would be the largest time interval for any given currency. In this case, as you can see in the data I am attaching, the largest timeseries would be that of the currency ETH. Using the longest calendar as our first column I would then like to place the values described in item 3 above as rows in the new table.
The new layout would look like this
My steps to transform the raw data in the first table are detailed in this image. Basically just expanding a JSON file and getting all the data I need into that first format which I described previously.
What I then do is:
Pivot using the first column
Transpose
That gives me a whole bunch of new columns. Way more than I want. Any idea what I can do differently?
In powerquery,
click select pair column
Transform .. pivot column .. values column: basis advanced options: do not aggregate
code:
#"Pivoted Column6" = Table.Pivot(YourPriorStepName, List.Distinct(Source[pair]), "pair", "basis", List.Sum)
output:
Is there a way to add values in Excel based off of values previously in table?
For example, in the table I currently have, is there a way to exclude adding the 1 from the "Attended" column in the "Sonics and Cold Cash" row because I already had a row with "Sonics" and "1" in attended? I don't want to add a 1 to the SUMIF function if I have already attended that team once before.
I hope this is clear enough for some help. Thank you!
edit: So far, I have a table that tracks how many times a team has been "attended". This works, however I am trying to use linear optimization for scheduling, and using the results table has some linearity problems. I'm trying to find a way to only use the table instead of a second, results table.
I'm trying to build a kind of timeline based on a table in Excel. The table has several columns that represent a due date. Column A is considered the key/identifier, Column B is a company name, Columns C through H are the task due dates.
My goal is to hopefully find a way to setup a second type of table that will automatically set the items in order of what key is due when. I've included an img of the table and what I'm hoping the end result would be. I haven't been able to find anything that does this. I was thinking maybe a pivot table but it's not doing what I want.
I'm not even sure if this is possible or not but any help or push in the right direction would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks!!

You can easily do this with Power Query. Just load the table, sort on date, and select which columns you want
I was analyzing some data using Pivot Tables and noticed something strange.
I am attaching below the screenshots for details.
The first image if of the data, I have filtered it for a particular Brewery
The second image is of the rows and values selected in Pivot table
And the third image is of the analysis spit out by excel.
My question is shouldn't the count of category for '(512) Brewing Companybe4` which is the distinct values of category as seen from the second image?
If not then how come I can get the unique count of categories using the pivot table.?
Thanks
one way of doing it is to pull the category field just below Brewery one while keeping Category also in the values
This will help you to have the count you are looking for, one thing that may bother you are th subtotals that will appear for each Brewery, but this can be easy fixed by right clicking on them and select "Remove Subtotal..."
Hope this helps, if not let me know
Kind regards
It seems so silly, but I am trying to set up my pivot table, and it doesnt seem to be my strongest side.
The following picture demonstrates what I am after:
... so basically in the data there is a currency string, however it seems as if I cant get this string to be represented in the matix - only in either the row labels or columns labels, which makes the table very unstructured. Is there a way to match the security (row label) with its denominated currency ?
this part of my source table:
... where CCY is the currency column I would like within the pivot table and not as a pivot row or column label.

Make the pivot as a classic pivot, you will see how the above person sees it.
Classic pivot is your answer of putting in text strings inside pivot. It somehow aligns better.
Right click on pivot --> Pivot table option --> Display --> Check the box which says "Classic Pivot table layout".
Take a backup of the excel copy before you switch to classic pivot. Some say it's irreversible
Include the currency-field in the Pivot table, like this:
This is exactly what I am after #MatsLind however this is what I receive when doing this:
so my question is why is our results different ?
Please let me know if I am totally off, but end goal should preferably be the following image:
.. however with this sorting (1.Security , 2.CCY) I am not allowed to sort the value within the pivot table. If I make the follwing sorting (1.CCY, 2.Security):
then I am allowed to sort the data within the pivot table, but I would prefer the former layout.
Can't add comments due to lack of reputation but this ain't an answer exactly.. Maybe..
From what I see in the below image, it looks like you have the row CCY on top and then security. If you want it like the top image, change the hierarchy.
Go to field list and under rows, drag and place the Security on top of CCY, youre pivot will look like above picture.
But you're speaking of sorting, it looks like the above picture has been sorted with the grand total column.. I didn't follow you completely on the sorting peice..
Edit: I understood the problem now, what values exactly are you trying to sort?
