Add column that can be use in Row pivot table
Hello
I am simplify my example to help you to understand my question
So let say I have in my table 3 columns
- Date
- Hours
- Amount
Example
| Date | Hour | Amount |
| 23-May-21 | 19:47:08 | 50 |
| 24-May-21 | 18:13:44 | 30 |
| 27-May-21 | 9:04:58 | 20 |
| 30-May-21 | 11:14:21 | 50 |
instead of having in my Pivot
- Date in (rows)
- and sum of amount in (Values.)
I add a colum in power pivot called shift like this
=if(hour>16:00,Date & "A", Date & B)
So my data is like this
| Date | Hour | Amount | Shift |
| 23-May-21 | 19:47:08 | 50 | 5/23/2021B |
| 24-May-21 | 18:13:44 | 30 | 5/24/2021B |
| 27-May-21 | 9:04:58 | 20 | 5/27/2021A |
| 30-May-21 | 11:14:21 | 50 | 5/30/2021A |
I would like to use in my pivot table
- Shift in (rows)
- and sum of amount in (Values.)
But I get error that I can move calculated field there.
What I can do? to be able to do it. what is the correct way.
thanks

I'd expect this to work fine unless you accidentally defined a measure instead of a calculated column for Shift.
Can you share a screenshot of the error you're getting?
