Variance in Matrix

Hi All,

I'm stuck and will appreciate it if someone can help me with this. 

I have a matrix coming up as this:

End of Week19.2023 12.2.2023 Total
PeriodVol Vol Vol
1-7 Days20 10 30
8-14 Days20 10 30
15-21 Days10 20 30
21days +55 30 85
Total105 70 175

 

The dates in the matrix all came from the same column rundate and the values came from Countrows(datatable) which gives the total count. When this total is put in the values section of the matrix, it goes to the appropriate section as seen in the table. The issue is that I'm trying to have a variance of the values of the two dates instead of the total that the matrix has put for me. It would have been good if there's something like enable Variance just like we have subtotals and Grandtotals.  How do I get the variance of these values?

@Ejykso , You can use isinscope to replace grand total/subtotal with variance measure

for variance

Thanks amitchandak, However, the link is not opening anymore and I couldn't get to see how to replace this built-in subtotals with variance.  I'll appreciate it if you could give an example using the table above.
