Pandas version checks
-
[X] I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
[X] I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
[X] I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
import pandas as pd
pd.DataFrame({'A': [], 'B':[], 'C': []}).pivot_table(values='A', index='B', columns='C', margins=True)
Issue Description
pivot_table with margins=True on empty DataFrame results in ValueError.
This is an inconsistent behaviour, as pivot_table with margins=False returns empty dataframe.
Expected Behavior
Should return an empty DataFrame, same as with margins=False
