Subtotals on crosstabs

I have a crosstab that comes out nice.

 

I have three groupings a week number a name and then a date.  Values are grouped by a field which works out great.

 

However, I need to be able to provide a subtotal after each name changes, as well as have a total on the right.

 

Is there a way to do that?  

 

Thank you!

I fixed one thing to make the totals be correct for the day and people.  However, I need to get a total for the week (will be 1 - 10).

 

@AGilbert you are a STAR!  Can you help me get it to the finish line?  Have learned a lot from this already, but don't want to screw it up.  Cheers,


Gary

Here is a solution. The previous workflow is inside a macro which works on each week's data at a time. Each week is returned with subtotals to the main workflow. Then the grand total is calculated before the final report is unioned together. I tried to add some notes to help explain. 

 

Only other new items is that a template of the headers is included at the end of the macro to handle situations where columns don't yet exist. 

 

Ask any questions you may have.

I may do a way around it.  Do each week as a separate tab on an excel file - that may work.

 

Let me see how that goes.

 

Thanks

Ok, message here or pm if you need something. Screenshots or workflows always help.
