    This is a much needed feature. Am designing DV Projects for Executive Management and Grand Total is not the most suitable naming convention, would like to rename it based on the type of data using.

    This is very much needed . In most cases the grand total would mean something else which we will be frequently referring to

    Please advise when this can be available? Grand Total is not always useful.

    Hello Community,

    I am looking for some clarity on providing a custom name for Sub-Totals in table / pivot. In the example below, is the expectation that the author is able to provide a custom name for each of Customer Segment member grouping? ie able to rename

    Consumer Total

    Corporate Total

    Home Office Total etc ..

    What is your use case to rename sub-total label?

    @Avinash Krishnaram-Oracle We used to rename & Format the Grand Total header name for better visibility and self explainable. Very rare case , we renamed Sub Totals. But we should have font format option for Sub Totals of each column. For example if the table you mentioned , If we have Product column , then we should have option of showing Sub totals in different format for Product and Consumer segment.
