Do not change the aggregate function. Steps 4 and 5 organize the values for the fields first by date, and then by product subcategory for that date.

After you create groups, you can add and format rows on which to display aggregate values for the fields.

On the Home tab, in the Number group, click the Currency button. The cells change to show the formatted currency. By default, the SalesDate field displays both date and time. You can format them to display only the date. On the Ribbon, on the Home tab, in the Number group, click the arrow and select Date.

On the Home tab, in the Number group, click the arrow in the lower-right corner to open the dialog box. By default, each cell in a table contains a text box.
