I have a problem that I'm sure requires the most elementary fix. I have exhausted google on this. All I need is a drop down list for each value field. See picture attached.
In building my pivot table my data that I want to show in the column area is showing up as rows stacked on top of each other. In the column section I'm trying to show Total Budgeted Amount next to Total Actual Amount but on the layout it's showing the two stacked on top of each other is there some kind of hidden key that I'm missing?
filter a pivot table that contains these 3 column fields: User 1, User 2, and User 3.
However, when I want to see the results for "John" in all those fields, I need to use one filter at a time. Is there any other way to see all results of the Pivot Table where "John" is a User, no matter if he is the 1, 2 or 3 user?
I have A3 and A4 as report filters in the pivot table. Is there any way can combine A3 and A4 into one cell. The new cell is something like drop-down list contains contents from A3 and A4. When picking up the from this drop-down, the corresponding data list will be shown (like the data in B3 and B4).
I am trying to arrange data (pay by week) for regions and sites within a region. In the first Report filter, I select the site, and the second report filter gives me all of the sites - not just those in that region.... How I can either arrange my data or change my pivot, so only the appropriate sites show under the region?
I can't know what fields will be filtered on so, so I need to extract all filters at run time.
I tried activeCell.PivotCell.PivotTable.ActiveFilters and this returns 0 although there are definitely filters available.
The workaround which I'm not is very good I'm considering is:
activecell.PivotTable.PageFields.Items collection which also behaves weird:
activecell.PivotTable.PageFields.Count returns 2 at the same time it has 3 elements: activecell.PivotTable.Item(0);activecell.PivotTable.Item(1);activecell.PivotTable.Item(2)
I have a pair of Pivot Tables with matching Pie Charts that look at Project Costs and Schedules. When I filter one, I'd like the other to filter automatically.
I found these links and used the code that Jerry supplied but I am running into trouble.
pivot table question
Pivot Table- "Master" Report Filter My filters (PivotField names) include Contractor RCEs District Year Month
When I select a contractor from PivotTable1 it does not change PivotTable2.
There is additional code in this workbook that Jerry recently wrote concerning drilldown formatting. It was initially created for a different report but now I use it in many of my other reports. I don't think it's causing the problem, I placed the new code above it (including in the module) and there is a line breaking it up from the new code.
As a side note, I may or may not need to change every filter. In this case I only want to change the contractor, but other times I may want to change other items.
Is there a way to loop through pivot table filters in VBA? In my case, I need to loop through the filter "Month" which contains January - December. For each of the month, I have to select and double click the total cases in each month.
So for every loop, for example,
Pivot 1 January Count
Case 1 2
Case 2 1
Total 3
I need to open the drill down in B3 (this drill down will be opened in a new sheet, Sheet 1), copy the data and paste it in another sheet named "January Cases". Then the code will delete "Sheet 1" and proceed with the same with February till December. Is it possible to loop through pivot table filters?
PIVOT TABLES -- Old data remains in pivot table filters
One more Pivot Table Question:
I have workbooks i have built and re-use with fresh data after verifying that the previous data has been cleared. Unfortunately there are times in the drop down filter, old data will remain, but is not at all in the data set. How to clear this out? I have ensured that before pasting in new data the old data has been cleared below the headers. I keep my headers so I don't need to re-do the Pivot Tables or adjust the Name / SUM capabilities in the VALUE FIELD SETTINGS.
I have created a pivot table and I'm using report filters for both Client and Asset (obviously there are a lot more data points). When I filter on Client 1 I would expect to only see Port 1 - Port 7 available in the Asset filter however, I see every asset in the data set. I need to pick and choose using the Select Multiple Items check box without having to scroll through every single asset. Is there a way to easily do this?
I have made a pivot table and I dlike to identify with a macro the documents with net value over 1000. Then extract these values next to the respective sales documents in an are near the pivot table somewhere. The fields are called Document and Sum of Net value. Of course the pivot is very variable one time it has 3000 records and another 5000.
I had 2 pivot tables running on the same page (sheet 2). They both draw data from the same source (Sheet 1).
The only difference between the two is that pivottable1 has a filter for "home team", and pivottable2 has a filter for "awayteam".
I have managed to link the tables using VB so if i select "Man United" on pivottable1 - as the home team, pivottable2 also selects "Man United".
Now my problem is, that i don;t want to select the teams from the drop down check box list on the actual pivot table. I want to be able to do this by typing into a cell (say Cell A1 on sheet 3 for instance) and this controlling BOTH pivot tables.
I did have some lengthy code which worked for one pivot table, but it did not operate both and it over rode my code i had in place which works for manual filtering.
I'm trying to make a pivot table that can compare sales based on the whatever month/year/salesman combination I give.
Ideally, I'll be comparing the sales data for 3 seperate months. Can I make a pivot table where I can make different filters apply to specific columns?
I'm trying to update a pivot table filter with a list on another worksheet. When I do a record and select two WBS for filter criteria I get the following:
If I entered values 700UY0S1MGL1 & 700UY0S1MGL2 in cells A1 and A2 of Sheet2 in the same workbook, how can I get this code to read that? If I extend the list to include additional items, how can I get the code to read it?
My next question is, in Excel I could enter a partial search (like 700UY0S1MG) in the filter drop down and I could filter on everything with this string. Using the macro it seems as though the full 12 char string needs to be qualified. How would I write a macro to handle this?
I have a pivot table with over 4000 entries and about 12 columns which i filter to get the info i want.
Unfortunately with so many rows and columns in the table, if i do a macro that gets each filter back to 'show all' its really slow.
Doing this manually using the "Show all" option in the filter takes a fraction of a second, so surely there must be a way to do this more quickly in VBA?
i can't understand why manually it takes no time at all, but automating it through recording a macro takes forever.
1. I am trying to record a macro where I select a Pivot Table. But in the recorded macro "Pivot Table name" is not recorded neither the Pivot Field Property only the Range name is recorded. But on other systems (workstations) these details get recorded. Does this have something to do with excel settings?
2. I uploaded a macro enabled excel file on my company's "sharepoint" the drop down boxes present in the file get populated via a macro in "ThisWorkbook" page but sometimes these drop down boxes don't show any values. What can be the reason for this? Can't share the file because of data security policy of my organization.
I have 3 pivot tables and with 3 filters each (they are all the same filters). I just want to change 1 of the filters for each of the pivot table (meaning the other 2 stay the same for all of the pivots). Is it possible to have a filter change automatically to match a filter in another pivot?
I'm Using Excel 2007 and would like to have some VBA to work with the following!
I have a simple pivot table (PivotTable1) in Sheet1 with three items in the Report Filter which has been named "ROUTE" I have created a ComboBox in Sheet2 and have added the identical three items in via format control, cell link A1.
I would like to be able to use the combobox in sheet2 to operate the PivotTable Report Filter in Sheet1 as I would like to build a report whereas a user. Can only select the comboBox and does not see the pivotTable
Sounds simple but cannot get this to work no matter what I try.
I am having trouble getting some conditional formatting to apply to all cells in a column in a pivot table. Currently, the conditional formatting is only applying to the top level items in the pivot but is not applying to the lower level items. I can see why it is doing this. the range in "Applies to" is only specifying the rows that contain the top level items. I tried to change the range to D10:D647 but, it reverts back to just the top level items. How to get it to apply to everything?
why the Group Field option is not available in my Pivot Table. Other Pivot Tables in the same document, using data formatted the same way will let me format the data (the original data is in MM/DD/YY [h]:mm format). I have floored my data so that I can group by hour of the day, but it's not letting me do that.
I have two fields in pivot table, "HATA TOPLAMI" and "SIRA NO". "Hata toplamı" is sum of items, and "Sıra no" is count of items. İ want to divide these two fields and add it to the pivot table, like "HATA TOPLAMI" / "SIRA NO". I have tried calculated field function from pivot table. İ wrote "="HATA TOPLAMI" / "SIRA NO"". But the summary is false. I want to divide Sum of "Hata toplamı" and count of "Sıra no" but instead it divides with sum of "sıra no". Is there a way to do this?
I have a problem in expanding/collapsing fields in pivot table.
I have source table with GROUP, SUBGROUP, ACCOUNT and AMOUNT. In pivot table I've put GROUP, SUBGROUP and ACCOUNT in Row labels respectivly, and AMOUNT in values. There are same names in SUBGROUP for different names in GROUP. (for example: groups are Production costs and Distribution costs and in each of them there are subgroups Personnel costs and Other costs).
The question is: Is it possible to expand only field Other costs in group Distribution costs while field Other costs in group Production costs stays collapsed?
Ihave a pivot table that takes data from a table, groups the duplicate items and adds their values up - so it shows just one entry for each item. I now want to add a calculated field in there so that I can divide one of the fields into another.
