Displaying Calculations in WPF Pivot Grid

27 Feb 20255 minutes to read

The pivot grid provides support to show the calculation values in column or row. This can be achieved by using the ShowCalculationsAsColumns property of pivot grid control or through simple uncheck or check option in the pivot schema designer.

Setting ShowCalculationsAsColumns property through code

For XAML, refer to the following code sample.

XAML

<Grid>
        <syncfusion:PivotGridControl HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="pivotGrid" FreezeHeaders="False" VerticalAlignment="Top" VisualStyle="Metro" ShowCalculationsAsColumns="False" ItemSource="{Binding   Source={StaticResource data}}">

            <syncfusion:PivotGridControl.PivotRows>
                <syncfusion:PivotItem FieldHeader="Product" FieldMappingName="Product" TotalHeader="Total" />
                <syncfusion:PivotItem FieldHeader="Date" FieldMappingName="Date" TotalHeader="Total" />
            </syncfusion:PivotGridControl.PivotRows>
            <syncfusion:PivotGridControl.PivotColumns>
                <syncfusion:PivotItem FieldHeader="Country" FieldMappingName="Country" TotalHeader="Total" />
                <syncfusion:PivotItem FieldHeader="State" FieldMappingName="State" TotalHeader="Total" />
            </syncfusion:PivotGridControl.PivotColumns>
            <syncfusion:PivotGridControl.PivotCalculations>
                <syncfusion:PivotComputationInfo CalculationName="Total" FieldName="Amount" Format="C" SummaryType="DoubleTotalSum" />
                <syncfusion:PivotComputationInfo CalculationName="Total" FieldName="Quantity" SummaryType="Count" />
            </syncfusion:PivotGridControl.PivotCalculations>

        </syncfusion:PivotGridControl>
    </Grid>

For code-behind, refer to the following code sample.

C#

public partial class MainWindow: Window {
    PivotGridControl pivotGrid = new PivotGridControl();
    public MainWindow() {
        InitializeComponent();
        grid1.Children.Add(pivotGrid);
        pivotGrid.ItemSource = ProductSales.GetSalesData();
        PivotItem m_PivotItem = new PivotItem() {
            FieldHeader = "Product", FieldMappingName = "Product", TotalHeader = "Total"
        };
        PivotItem m_PivotItem1 = new PivotItem() {
            FieldHeader = "Date", FieldMappingName = "Date", TotalHeader = "Total"
        };
        PivotItem n_PivotItem = new PivotItem() {
            FieldHeader = "Country", FieldMappingName = "Country", TotalHeader = "Total"
        };
        PivotItem n_PivotItem1 = new PivotItem() {
            FieldHeader = "State", FieldMappingName = "State", TotalHeader = "Total"
        };
        // Adding PivotItem to PivotRows
        pivotGrid.PivotRows.Add(m_PivotItem);
        pivotGrid.PivotRows.Add(m_PivotItem1);
        // Adding PivotItem to PivotColumns
        pivotGrid.PivotColumns.Add(n_PivotItem);
        pivotGrid.PivotColumns.Add(n_PivotItem1);
        PivotComputationInfo m_PivotComputationInfo = new PivotComputationInfo() {
            CalculationName = "Amount", FieldName = "Amount", Format = "C", SummaryType = SummaryType.DoubleTotalSum
        };
        PivotComputationInfo m_PivotComputationInfo1 = new PivotComputationInfo() {
            CalculationName = "Quantity", FieldName = "Quantity", SummaryType = SummaryType.Count
        };
        pivotGrid.PivotCalculations.Add(m_PivotComputationInfo);
        pivotGrid.PivotCalculations.Add(m_PivotComputationInfo1);

        pivotGrid.ShowCalculationsAsColumns = false;
    }
}

Setting ShowCalculationsAsColumns property through pivot schema designer

You can enable or disable the ShowCalculationsAsColumns property through the “Show Calculations as column” checkbox of the pivot schema designer. To view the calculation values in row, uncheck the “Show Calculations as column” checkbox.
