Merge 3+ Datasets With Identical Structure To Summarize Content By Pivot Table
Jun 11, 2014
I have several data sets that that have the same column headers (product portfolio data, split by categories into different workbooks) and the same structure and want to merge them to create summaries in a pivot table that I can slice the way I need to look at the data (e.g., by "Category 1" level, "Category 2" level, etc..). The messy way would be to just copy/paste all data in one master set and then create one pivot from it. The problem is that this a) takes a lot of time since I have several data sets and b) the content of these data sets is constantly changing, so I would need to constantly update the master data set by replacing updated sub sets.
I was hoping that I can use PowerPivot for that which is apparently not the case - as I understand PowerPivot is only being used to link data sets that contain a column with an identical key to then basically do on a larger scale what a vlookup would do. Is there a way to do this with PowerPivot?

I have a list of people whose direct reports have either completed or not completed a task at work, and there are four tasks. The records look like this (I've removed the direct report's name, which is to the left):
Manager NameTask 1Task 2Task 3Task 4Mickey SmithCompleteCompleteCompleteCompleteDanny Ledbetter
IncompleteIncompleteCompleteCompleteDanny LedbetterCompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteMickey SmithCompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteMickey SmithCompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteMickey SmithIncompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteDanny LedbetterCompleteCompleteCompleteComplete
I want to pivot the data so that for each manager I can see the % who completed Task 1, the % who completed Task 2, etc. preferrably in a horizontal format.
So, I can get this easy enough for the first task:
Count of Task 1Column LabelsRow LabelsCompleteIncompleteGroup 1Danny Ledbetter67%33%Mickey Smith75%25%
However to the right of this I want the results for Task 2, 3, and 4. The best I can do is the following:
Column LabelsCompleteIncompleteRow LabelsCount of Task 1Count of Task 2Count of Task 1Count of Task 2Danny Ledbetter67%67%33%33%Mickey Smith75%75%25%25%Grand Total71%71%29%29%
The results for Task 2 are incorrect. I've tried % of Row, % of Parent Row, and all the other calculations, and can't seem to get it. I've also tried putting the fields in the Column Labels box, the Values Box, etc.
I can even get this if I put the SumValues field in the Row Labels, which yields a vertical result, but still, the values are incorrect (Mickey has 100% completion under Task 2):
Column LabelsRow LabelsCompleteIncompleteDanny LedbetterCount of Task 167%33%Count of Task 267%33%Mickey SmithCount of Task 175%25%Count of Task 275%25%Total Count of Task 171%29%Total Count of Task 271%29%

I have a worksheet with several columns of data that consists of month to date billing, cost, profit, etc. that are tied to job numbers.
I currently have code ( AdvancedFilter) that seperates this data judging by the first two numbers of the job number. For instance it will take all job numbers that start with 11, copy them to a worksheet, print it and then do the same for 12, 13, 21, etc..

I have several competitors balance sheets (around 15), they all have the same structure, what i will like to do is summarize all this data into a pivot table to have a grand total but also be able to filter the data by single competitor.
I have tried to do multiple consolidation ranges, power pivot, pivot but i was unsuccessful, maybe i arranged the data wrong or im not using the right solution. im using excel 2013

Some copies of excel workbooks are made using save as option for data entry purpose. Each copy has same file structure because they are created using save as option. Is it possible to merge them (preferably preserving the macros) ? The workbooks are not shared because they were protected sheets and so macros wont run.

In the attached Excel file, the data has been place from d2 to dyo2.
For example, value "2607" is placed from cells va2 to wk2.
I need to merge cells from va2 to wk2.
I can't use horizontal alignment - center across selection because my boss wants it to merge only.

I would like to combine 2 tabs into one spreadsheet. I was not able to do so, because it exceeds the max rows allowed in excel. I have installed powerpivots but not sure how to combine data using powerpivots.

i have a database of the kind:
Model Version Color Store
1 a zz HH
2 b xx QQ
3 c yy OO
4 d ww PP
I need to obtain in the y axis the model, and in the x axis the store.
The data per each model and store should be: the version and color.
I'm using Pivot table to do that, but i'm only able to obtain the "count" (or sum or other formula) but I'm not able to obtain the content of the cell.
Example:
Store HH PP
Model
1 Version a d
Color zz ww
2 Version b c

I need to use to prepare for analysis a large set of individual participants' Excel data files collected using a psychological reaction-time experiment (a modified Stroop task). This experiment was created using a program called Superlab by Cedrus, so I posted an inquiry at the Superlab forum [url]. Their tech support suggested I might need to use macros in Excel but couldn't offer further assistance. I'll try to briefly describe (a) our Stroop task, (b) the operations I'm trying to carry out, and (c) the format of the individual Excel files,
Our Stroop task: The participant gets some instructions and practice trials, then a series of stimulus words are presented one word at a time in the center of a computer monitor in one of several colors. Word presentation order is randomized for each participant. The participant must press a key corresponding to the color of each word as quickly as possible. For each keypress (including the spacebar, pressed on instructions screens), the reaction time (in msec) is recorded in their Excel spreadsheet under the 'Reaction Time' variable. The 'Error Code' variable indicates whether the participant pressed the correct (C) or incorrect (E) color key in each trial. There are 8 types of words for a total of 48 trials. (Actually, 4 sets of emotion words and 4 sets of control-animal words, each set composed of 6 words each. The task basically measures how much peoples’ attention is captured by emotionally relevant cues in the environment.)
For each participant's data, I need an efficient way (macros?) to:
(1) clean it [i.e. discard or ignore the instruction & practice trials as well as trials where the participant was too impulsive (reaction time < 100 msec), too distracted (rt > 3000 msec), or gave the wrong color response (Error Code= E)]
(2) determine whether enough valid trials remain for further analysis (>39 trials), and if so:
(3) calculate a mean reaction time score for each of the 8 word types [where denominator for each word type is based on # remaining (non-discarded) trials for that word type]
(4) merge each participant's summarized data as single rows in a common spreadsheet (for importation and further analyses in SPSS), like this:
---------------------------
ID#...... MeanRTW1.......MeanRTW2...... (etc. for word types 3-8)
101.......1056................2013...............
102.......2148................2594...............
103...
---------------------------
Excel File Format: I've attached a sample file, and here's a simplified overview of a spreadsheet (irrelevant columns and some rows removed). First the ID number is recorded (e.g., 393E), then some unnecessary junk (exp name & date, intro, practice, instructions), then data for the 48 actual trials of interest:
-------------------------------------------
........A...............B..................C.................D............
1 393E
2 stroop.xpt
3 Wed Jan 1, 12:33:00 2008
4
5
6 Trial Name.....Trial No..... Error Code.....ReactionTime
7 introduction..... 1................C............561243
8 practice.......... 2................C............... 2062
9 red-worried........14.............C................1001 (*the first practice trial)
10 (9 more practice trial rows, deleted here)
19 instructions........3..............C................5000
20 red-chicken......19..............E............... 1205
21 blue-tense.......32...............C.................782
* (46 more actual trial rows, deleted here)
--------------------------------------------------
To clarify:
-The variable 'Trial Name' indicates nominally what stimulus was presented for each trial.
-The variable 'Trial No.', indicates the unique numerical marker for each stimulus word. (It probably should have been labeled 'Word Type'. It doesn't reflect the order of stimulus presentation. E.g., the word "tense" is always 'Trial No.' 32 for all participants, regardless of when it presents.)
-A subset of actual trial words (e.g., worried) were also used for the 10 practice trials. Thus, the 10 practice trials must first somehow be discarded or flagged to be ignored before calculating average reaction times for the remaining 48 actual trials.

I have included some example data and what I need to be able to show in the attached file.
I have tried using pivot tables but need to keep the totals static when I hide a column.
Can anybody suggest another way of achieving what I need? I need the solution to be dynamic (like a pivot table) but need to hide certain data and have totals including the hidden data.

I have a list of 12.000 pictures which have to be "connected" with the article number (1000) & color (21). Here starts the problem... Each article usually has more than 2 colors, but is listed only once per row and the colors are stated in columns.
What I would need is a macro or function that would do from such structure:
art description color1 color2 color 3
1000 product A 21 22 23
1001 product B 19 23
this:
art. description picture
1000-21 product A, color 21 1000-21.jpg
1000-22 product A, color 21 1000-21.jpg
1000-23 product A, color 21 1000-21.jpg
1001-19 product B, color 21 1001-19.jpg
1001-23 product B, color 21 1001-19.jpg
1. check if the row in color columns is not null
2. if this is true, then I would like to copy the entire row & paste it below existing
3. then the "art." column would be changed (=A2&"-"&C2), so the article woul get suffix of the color (and column "picture" would be created, maybe something like =A2&".jpg")
4. if any other color column in the same row is greater than null, then proceed to next color & repeat steps 2. & 3., else go to next row
5. until all 5000 rows are converted in about 12.000 rows.

Using Excel 2013.
Trying to create a Calculated Column in a table to put Expense in 1 of 4 categories
I came up with =CALCULATE(sum([TotalExpense]),FILTER(factExpense,factExpense[ExpnseType]="Sundries"))
But that is returning total instead of a total for each record What did I miss?
This works for the first Calculated column: =CALCULATE(sum([TotalExpense]),FILTER(dimExpense,dimExpense[Type]="Sundries"))
But as soon as I copy the formula to the next column and update the type to "Wines_Spirits" I get
A circular dependency was detected
Found the answer on SQLBI website I added a unique id to each row and in Table Behavior in the Data Model set the Unique_ID as the Row_Identifier

I use INDEX and MATCH equations quite frequently now and they are invaluable! However what I'm trying to do now doesn't quite fit. I've attached a small sample of my workbook. The sheet called 'data' has three columns of data that I need to split into a grid (called summary). I'd know how to do the opposite of this, as in changing from a grid to a list by using an index and match. But I'm not sure how to do this the opposite way around?

This data consist of a long list of staff id with exception type and points. However, I have only a certain number of staff from the long list which is applicable to my department. For example, I only need data for 4 staff from the list. This list will duplicate the staff id based on dates. Therefore, there might be several cells with exception type and points for that particulat staff . Example is for staff M41 as below:
Date Staff ID Exceptiontype Points Item#
Dec 1 M45 Contract 1.0 44556
Dec 1 M41 Contract 1.0 44578
Dec 2 M43 Contract 1.0 44579
Dec 3 M46 Contract 1.0 22569
Dec 4 M41 Contract 1.0 44572
Based on the above data, I need to summarize as below:
Staff ID Exception Type Points Exception #
M41 Contract 1.0 44578
M41 Contract 1.0 44572

On a worksheet, I created:
- a list of data
- a pivottable based on these data
When moving this worksheet this worksheet to another workbook, the pivot table can't refresh anymore. This throws an error message "Reference is not valid". To work around this problem I need to adapt the datasource. The same occurs if the list and the pivot table are on separate sheet, with the added strange behaviour that, when data an PT are split, it is not possible to move both sheet together.
This would not be a big issue if my problem had to be solved manually. The real problem is that I need to move the sheets from a C# program.

I'm having difficulty trying to get the second file appended to the bottom of the 1st imported file. I get "run-time error '13' type mismatch". There is no difference between the two files. I'm thinking there is a problem with my range statement in the second file import, but this range works fine in other macros. Here's my code so far:
Range("A1").Select
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"TEXT;\server1usersmydataIMPORT1.CSV", Destination _
:=Range("$A$1"))
.Name = "IMPORT1"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False

I have two Tables, Table1 and Table2, in a single Excel spreadsheet. Table1 is our master log, and Table2 contains only Provider Names, Contact Names, Phone Numbers, and Email Addresses. I need to compare column K from Table1 with column AT from Table2. Whenever Excel finds a perfect match, I need Excel to copy AW:AY to AB:AD. For each value in column AT, there will be several identical matches in column K.
I have tried to implement vlookup() and index(match()), but cannot figure either one of them.
Table1 is almost 1500 rows long, while Table2 is not quite 80.

I have a worksheet with two pivot tables, one of which is visible to the user. Ideally, the user should be able to change the "Row Label" field settings of the visible pivot table and then press an "update button" that then adds the same field to the second pivot table.
Ideally, the ordering of the fields should also be made similar between the two tables, though this is of less priority.
I imagine it would be something in the style of:
"If number of Pivot1 active row label fields = X then
Pivot 2.AddRowLabelField = Pivot1.RowLabelField(X)
end if"

I have data that develops 3 to 4 pivot table each day. I would like to know if there is a way to change the date on one of the pivot table and have the other pivot tables date change to match with the first pivot table. At this time I am going to all 3 or 4 pivot table to select the correct date. The date is in the page position of the pivot table. I have attached a small sample of the data and the pivot tables.

I want to do a mail merge from a pivot table. The pivot looks like this (bit simplified ;-) :
Name JanFebMar
Joe $12 $23 $34
joe(a)test.com $12 $23 $34
Frank $45 $56 $67
frank(a)test.com $45 $56 $67
Alex $78 $89 $90
alex(a)test.com $78 $89 $90
Created with: Name and e-mail as row items, months as columns and cost as values.
In the e-mail I want to address the person by his name and use the right e-mail address to send it. So ideally (I think) the pivot should look like this (e-mail address in the column next to the name instead of under the name):
Name e-mail JanFebMar
Joe joe(a)test.com $12 $23 $34
Frank frank(a)test.com $45 $56 $67
Alex alex(a)test.com $78 $89 $90
Now the problem is that I can't place e-mail in the column section of the pivot... Instead of placing the e-mail addresses vertical beside the name they are place horizontal...
