As per an explanation found here by Mac CPub fro Excel 2011 (for OS X) supposedly you can sort “Grand Total” columns as per the following: “… Excel for Mac doesn’t have a “Sort by Grand Total” option, but you can select the grand total column and then use the Sort button on the ribbon to do this.”
When I attempt perform this function it unfortunately seems to be disabled as you can see in this short screencast.
Any idea as to how to allow sorting by Grand Total?
You should select only the data part of your pivot table, not the headers or footers (in your screencast, starting form E5 down to A?). You can then use the standard sort option.
