Excel 2013: Table Slicers selection not changing values for calculated field (without VBA)

Question

I have a ODBC query in Excel that I have attached slicers to in order to filter the data.

Those slicers are on the main page along with a series of formulas to analyze the data.

i.e. Table on Sheet 2 contains rows with a unique ID, state, county, zip, and other fields.

I have Slicers on Sheet 1 that filter the data in the Table in Sheet 2. On sheet one I also have a series of calculations in Sheet 1 such as:

=count(Sheet2!A:A)

=countif(Sheet2!B:B,1)/count(Sheet2!A:A)

So with no slicers selected, the formulas should count the total in Sheet2!A:A, however when I select a value from the slicer to filter the table, it shows the same calculated value essentially ignoring the filters.

Is there anyway to ensure that the calculated fields are based on the filtered data without using VBA?

Answer 1

Figured it out:

Need to use the SUBTOTAL function then the corresponding function # (i.e. 2 is count, 9 is sum etc.)

so the calculation looks like this

=count(Sheet2!A:A) becomes =subtotal(2,Sheet2!A:A)
