Embedded Summaries

You can add an additional calculation to your Cross-Tab by inserting an
Embedded Summary.

Unlike Calculated Members, Embedded Summaries do not add rows or
columns to your Cross-Tab. Instead, they cause additional calculations to
appear within each cell of the Cross-Tab.

For example, in a report showing regional sales, you could insert a calculation
for each region that shows the percentage of total sales for the country.
