Create Pivot Table Based On Union Query
Jul 2, 2010
I created a union query in Access to join two tables (Projections and Actual Sales). The query produces the results I want. I need to create a pivot table in Excel using the union query as the source. When I pull up the data import function in Excel, the union query does not appear. Do I need to do something else? I have tried to create a select query where I select all from the union query and I can find that fine.
When I use this query to create the pivot table the results end up all zeros when I try to sum the values. It creates some crazy results when I show it as count of also.
I can provide the data in either the Access database or Excel spreadsheet.

I have an SQL Server that has a query (a view stored on the server) which takes roughly 10-20 seconds to execute. This execution time is the same in Excel 2007 if I import data to worksheet/pivottable. It is also the same in Excel 2003 while importing data into a worksheet. It returns about 350 rows.
However, if I try to make a pivot table in 2003 based on this query, it is much slower. I can set it up fine, but refreshing this pivot table takes at least 10-20x as long to complete, in the order of 5-20 minutes, to sometimes taking so long that I give up and kill it by hitting escape a bunch.
It's important to note that I am forced to used Microsoft Query to set up a pivot table in Excel 2003. There is no other way, I believe.
While it is running, Excel just sits there saying "Waiting for data to be returned from Microsoft Query".
Here is the weirdest part. Once the refresh starts, Microsoft Query loads in the background, you can see it on the taskbar. I believe that is expected behavior, but if I click on MS Query and view its datatable, I can see all the data is sitting there.
So what is the hold up? MS Query has the data. Excel is waiting for it to be returned. What is going on? And remember from above, if I do a simple import data to worksheet, MS Query is not used and everything is fast.
So my question is does anybody have any tips/advice on this issue? I need a way to not use MS Query for a pivottable's data source or I need a way to make MS Query not freeze up. I don't get why MS Query needs to be involved in the first place since I am not doing any parameters or so forth.

I'm looking for an example of creating a pivot table based on an ADO Access Recordset.
I understand I can use MS Query - which I am, but looking to see if an alternative exists. A table I am inetrested in currently has 400,000 records I would like to retrieve and pivot.

I have a Pivot table that pulls the Avg of two fields for two months, see example below.
Avg Gross $ Avg Net $
Jan 2014 20 10
Feb 2014 30 20
sample 1.png
See sample attached.
The Avg Gross and Net is shown by going into the values and selecting "Summarized value by -> Average".
On the right side of this Pivot, what I wanted to do is to show a Avg Gross to Net $ in this pivot. So the formula should take "Avg Gross $" - "Avg Net $" = Avg Gross to Net $.
I am having trouble calculting this new field in the pivot table using a calculated field because the Calculated field pulls the variables from the existing field list and there isn't a field called "Avg Gross/Net"....I need to find a way to calculate the Avg Gross to Net into the Pivot table so I can pull a pivot graph out of it.

The "Sum" sheet can change its number of rows. The pivot table is based on it. I'm having trouble with the SourceData portion of the code in my macro ....

I'm trying to write a macro that will create a pivot table, and am getting an Error code 1004: Cannot Open Pivot Table Source File "Sheetname". My code is below. I've tried to note what each section does, and it all seems to work well except for the Pivot Table creation.

the attachment is a sample spreadsheet of what i am trying to do. I would like to create a pivot table so that for each site I can list all of the organic suites individually. Then show a count of only 1 for each site, even when there are several counts for each site. And then for this to be related to a cost of each of the suites so that I can get a total cost for each site.
eg:
site name
organic suites suite cost
o1 x
o2 y
o3 z
Total A
etc

I've used this code prior and it worked fine in Excel 2007, now I'm having issues with it. Originally every Pivottable & Query pointed to a different CSV file. Now I have two pivottables built off a Excel worksheet that is built from a Query. This allows me to do some complex lookups that I couldn't do with just the Pivottable and MS Query alone.
Here's the code that's failing out: Any problems with it in Excel 2007?
Private Sub Update_All_Data_Click()
Dim pvt As PivotTable
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim qt As QueryTable
mytitle = "This will refresh all data for validation, are you sure?"
Msg = "The Refresh process takes about 5 minutes, are you sure you want to continue?"
Response = MsgBox(Msg, vbExclamation + vbYesNo, mytitle)
Select Case Response
Case Is = vbYes
' Do Nothing, continue with program
Case Is = vbNo
Worksheets("instructions").Range("a1").Select
End
End Select
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
For Each qt In ws.QueryTables
qt.BackgroundQuery = True
qt.Refresh
Next qt
Next ws
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
For Each pvt In ws.PivotTables
pvt.RefreshTable
Next pvt
Next ws
mytitle = "Confirmation of data refresh"
Msg = "The data has been refreshed"
Response = MsgBox(Msg, vbExclamation, mytitle)
End Sub

I have created a pivot table in Excel 2010 that lists amounts used of particular items each month. Inside the pivot table value field settings i have changed the show values as field so that it displays the difference in usage from this month to last.
However if i now select a top 10 filter it only filters by the total number used as opposed to the difference in usage from one month to the next (which is the values displayed).
Is there a way that i can filter by top 10 by the actual values displayed in the pivot chart and not just the underlying data that creates it?

Recently, the boss showed me a Pivot table & chart, which consists of a list of about 30 user names in the first column. The row headings were the different items they purchased from a vending machine. & when he clicked on any name in the first column, this created a new sheet, renamed with users name, with a small table of results showing what that person purchased.
Problem is, none of us can figure out how to do this. I have created a new Pivot table & chart exactly like the original, but I cannot get the smaller sheet to generate. (Excel 2010)

1) I want to create a pivot table in a new tab that has both the prefix “ENG” and the date of creation as the new name of the tab every time a new table is required, using the example headers highlighted in the attached file.
2) Then if possible format the table as in the example, i.e. bordered cells for all the data and the dates only aligned to the right. Example in tab “Eng 01 05 09”
No 1 is the most import question I would like help on. Formatting is not crucial. This is only to make the table easier on the “eye of the beholder”, I am writing this spreadsheet for people who have less knowledge than myself and would like to keep it as simple as possible, (run a macro and get the results).

I have a pivot table in the first sheet which includes the field "Date" as a column label.
In the remaining sheets, except for one, there are pivot tables based on the same underlying dataset which also include the field "Date" as a column label.
I would like to adjust the selection (i.e., exclude some dates) from the column label in the first sheet and see if it is possible to make the same adjustments automatically to the pivot tables in the remaining sheets as well.
note that the field "Date" is used as a Column label, i.e., it is not a Report filter.

I regularly build a pivot table using VBA. I now want to group countries into regions within the pivot table, and I want to automate that using vba.
For simplicity, assume I have the countries Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Norway and Sweden; and I want to create the Groups BeNeLux and Scandinavia. (In reality, I have 150 countries, one group of 10 countries, 2 countries I want to show individually, and the rest of the world I want to group together)
I know I could select the cells using something like cells(d2:f2).group, but that seems wrong....
I have attached a file showing how far I can get with vba and where i want to get.
I have also tried things like ".DataRange.cells(2).group by:=3" but that never led to anything....

I'm trying to create what is essentially a report card for our staff. I have all the data in a pivot table and then I am using 'GETPIVOTDATA's in the report template to extract the information, linking the sheets via a cell that contains the staff members name. Easy enough. However for reasons of efficiency and practicality I would like to be able to select the names from a drop down list on the sheet rather than having to type it in manually or maintaining a separate sheet for everyone. The operators will change from month to month and there are approximately 90 staff at any given point in time that will need to be reported on so it really needs to be sourced from the pivot data.

Can record the all those actions which we need to do on a regular basis. In my work i have to create the pivot table to a data which gets changed every day but the data sequence remains the same.
I have tried to record the macro for the pivot table but when i tried to run the macro again then the below error message comes.
"run time error 5" "Invalid procedure call or argument" when i click on debug then the below macro program is highlighted in yellow color.

Another question about pivot tables. In Excel it is possible to show different kinds of information in a pivot table like sum, total, min, max, average and so on. I want to create my own formulas in my pivots. Is this possible and if so how?

I have two questions about dealing with formulas in pivot tables and how to make them dynamic. First let me give you some further background.
My database countains the following variables: Country, Company, Period, Product, Category and Sales. Out of this database i created a pivottable which sums the total sales amount for each company in every period. Further selection on country and category is possible in this pivot table. See my attached file!
I want to express the sales of each company as a percentage of the total sales in that period. For example for company A in period 1 their total sales was (929/3172) 29,3% of the total market sales. Which formula do i have to use in my pivot table to express company's market shares?
Further my pivot table can be specified more detailed by country and category. I want to be able to select on country and category in such a way that the company sales are still expressed as a percentage of the market sales. In other words how can i make my pivot table dynamic?

I have a pivot table without report filter and I set insert page break after one of my selected row labels.
I also would like when I print, these row Labels become the title of these pages at the same time.
Actual File : Untitled.png
However I would like when I click on print or save as pdf will print all pages as one file and each Center that I have set page break for, in separate page and add that specific center as its title:

The current problem i have is... i need to Dim PT01 as pivottable, Dim PT02 as pivottable, Dim PT03 as pivottable and so on.... Repetition is not good!
and secondly,the total pivot table is not constant each week. During busy week, i need to create 8 pivot table and in a slow week, it can go down to 5.
See below of my current formula...

Fixing a macro that i recorded in order to generate a pivot table on the same sheet and the same exact location every time. it seems that the macro fails every time i try to run and i'm thinking it has to do with the table reference. Again i want the table in the same sheet and the same location every time i run the macro. this is the recorded code so far.

I'm getting a 1004 run-time error when creating a pivot table.
I believe this happens because I'm creating it in a hidden sheet. When I unhide it no errors occur.

I have the following code that will open each file in a folder and run code on it. I'm trying to write code that will create a pivot table on each of the opned files...but cannot get past opening the file...
So I had built the vba code into a specific workbook so I could just drop that workbook into any folder I wanted to run code on files to and depending on the name of the file it would run different type of code. The problem has something to do with using "activesheet" for the pivot table wizard. It just doesn't like it and gives me a application 1004 error.
any way I can modify the activesheet so it will make a pivot of the newly opened file? I think what it is trying to do is make a pivot of the blank workbook that the code resides in
Sub filelooper()
MyDir = ActiveWorkbook.Path ' current path
Dim MyFile As String
