Pivot Table / Chart Not Grouping Same Entries

Feb 4, 2010

I have recently noticed a problem with a pivot table and assoicated pivot chart. The table has numerous columns from date, location and one entitled route. The route column has a value which is either a number or 'other'. The formatting of the column has been set to general (although the same problem was present under text). The problem is as follows:

When a new row of data is entered where the route is the same value as previous rows it should be grouped together. However when I go into my pivot table and look at the options for route I find the same value repeated twice. ie a route value of 155 will be listed once at the top and then lower down the list. A temporary fix is to rename all values of 155 to x155 and then back to 155. This then has everything grouped again under one value in the pivot table. As soon as new entries are added though the problem repeats itself. Does anyone know why this might be?

Aug 7, 2006

i have try to find the VBA source to group a range of value (not manual group it)
say example

1-10, 11-20, 21-30 and etc..

i have try to using macro to record my grouping step to a pivot table as below

Grouping Data In A Pivot Table

Oct 31, 2008

from the Forum on building a macro and was kindly told that a Pivot Table would do the job better, which it does. However, my table has a column of several dates, I was wondering the best way to group the dates into months rather than showing the full date, eg, September instead of 16/09/08 or August instead of 01/08/08.

Pivot Table Disable Grouping

Jan 3, 2009

I have the attached Pivot table. When i create this pivot table, it groups some of the "A# and Name"s.

e.g.
"A277003 / VICTORIA WILSON"
"A444302 / YASEMIN KELES"

Is there for the pivot table to not group by the A# & Name and to list the A# and names on each row...

Please see Output sheet to see exactly how I would like it?... But i would like this to be done in the pivot table so i can create a macro..... to do this..

Grouping Patients By Age In A Pivot Table

Jan 12, 2009

I know how to get the pivot table in the my database to group patients by age. However it groups them like this:5-14
15-24
25-34
35-44
45-54
55-64
65-74

Medically it doesn't make sense to group pediatric patients with adolescents and adolescents with adults. What I would like to do is to get the pivot table to group patients the way I want them. Something like this:5-12
13-18
19-25
26-35
36-45
46-55
56-65
66-75
76-85

Is there a way to get a pivot table to do this? Or is there another solution?

Pivot Table - Grouping Months

Jan 5, 2012

I'm trying to create a pivot table to figure out categories of expenses over the last year. The problem is when i create this pivot table on the horizontal i see all the days of the year, as opposed to categorized by month. I've tried to 'group' the months together but not very successfully. HOW to do this grouping elegantly?

I've attached 2 screenshots.

Pic 1 - Original State of the table with all the days on the horizontal

Pic 2 - an attempt to group by month, gone wrong

I'm looking for a quick way of counting the proportion of records in certain number ranges e.g.

Number of records in range 1 to 50, 51-100, 101-500 etc.

i have a pivot table but I'm just not sure how to create these groupings. Is a pivot the right way to do it - or should I be doing something else with the source data.

Pivot Table Not Grouping Like Items?

May 24, 2012

I've created a pivot table that is not grouping "like" items. I have verified all fields are numbers using the =isnumber() formula. All items present with the "true" value. Just in case, I tried doing text to columns and refreshing the data but that did not work either. All items are formatted the same. All data fields have values.

Excel 2010 :: Pivot Table Grouping

Apr 28, 2014

I had a workbook in Excel 2003 that i just moved to 2010. In the 2003 file I had 2 pivot tables, one each on a worksheet, looking at the same data, just grouped differently. One yearly, one quarterly.

Now in the 2010 workbook whenever I change the grouping on pivot table, the other one changes also. It's like they are linked together or something.

Monthly Totals without Pivot-table Grouping

May 20, 2008

I have an expense ledger that looks essentially like this but spans seven months and counting:

HTML 18-Apr-08pizza$10.00Food
14-Apr-08book$12.50School
13-Apr-08milk $3.99Food
13-Apr-08soap $3.99Grooming
I have been using pivot tables with great success to summarize my data according to categories, payment methods, etc. But now that I want to track monthly spending for each category, it is not working out. Grouping the date fields doesn't work for me for the following reasons:
1. After grouping, the pivot table treats Jan as the oldest month for sorting purposes even though it isn't so in my data set.
2. Based on #1, I believe that the pivot table�s monthly grouping works like the month() function, which returns the month without the year attached. This will not work for my data, which will likely span more than a year eventually.
3. When I choose to group the date fields in one pivot table, they also get grouped in other tables where such grouping is undesirable.
Can I use sumif() or sumproduct() in conjunction with a pivot table or some other way to tabulate my monthly totals?

Grouping Dates Into Weeks Without Using A Pivot Table

Oct 16, 2009

I have a large spreadsheet which lists individual dates over two years and circulation figures next to each date. Sometimes there are two entries for a particular date e.g. 1/10/08 there were 150 readers of magazine A and 200 readers of magazine B. When displaying this on a graph it give a bar for each day, whereas I would like a bar for each week.

Is there a formula to convert the individual dates into weeks and then total the circulation figures for that week?

Column A = Dates
Column B = Circulation Figures

Pivot Table Grouping By Date - Formatting Inconsistency

Apr 18, 2014

It's a given that formatting doesn't alter underlying values in all areas of Excel, merely changing the way cells look. But in the attached I show two pivot tables using exactly the same data with the sole exception that the first one has the date numbers formatted as numbers whereas the 2nd PT has the date numbers formatted as dates.

With the 2nd PT it will accept the Group by month functionality whereas the 1st PT won't.

On the face of it PTs seem to take more notice of the way a number is formatted when it comes to grouping rather than treating the number as a date which it can group.

Excel 2007 :: Pivot Table Grouping And Filtering

My problem is if I want to filter specfic months in say year 2012 it also takes out the month in 2013. I though it used to give you the option of year and date in the filter but mines are 2 seperate filters.

Grouping Dates Not Working On Pivot Table - ERROR

May 28, 2014

I am trying to group some dates in a pivot table.

Unfortunately I receive an error saying it can't group the selection.

I have done "text to columns" and made the cells - (date values) and I have had no luck.

As I am at work I can't use the HTML genie because it won't install but I have uploaded a dummy file to my dropbox which available from here [URL] .......

I pull this data from an Oracle POWER PIVOT and always have trouble grouping the dates when they come from Power Pivot. Currently working as analyst so figuring this out would make life so much easier as I could group by months etc.

Pivot Table With Dynamic, Updatable Chart, But Not A Pivot Chart!

Dec 19, 2008

My boss wants me to design a dynamic, updatable chart in Excel 2003. I initially made a Pivot Chart based on a Pivot Table which worked perfectly, but it doesn't look professional enough when printed (or viewed) and she wants me to approach it a different way.

So, I created a graph based on the data in a Pivot Table, and used dynamic ranges as the source for the graph series so that the chart updates when the criteria fields are changed for the Pivot Table. I then added two combo boxes (ie data validation lists) to the Chart sheet, and wrote VBA code so that whenever the combo box values are changed, the Criteria fields for the Pivot Table on the 2nd sheet are updated accordingly, and this in turn causes the graph to be updated as well.

This solution also worked perfectly, but now I've been told to create the graph without macros.

Does anyone have any suggestions? The requirements/details are as follows:

1. The Pivot Table is on sheet "PIVOT", and the graph is on sheet "GRAPH"
2. The Pivot Table has two criteria - School Name and Year Level
3. On sheet "GRAPH" there are two data-validated fields, School and Year, which only allow the selection of valid Schools and Year Levels

Is there any way to make the Pivot Table update when values are changed in the fields on the CHART sheet so that the chart also updates, but without using code nor a Pivot Chart?

Pivot Table - Grouping Items (Date) In Report Filter?

Nov 11, 2013

I have a pivot table with the following items;

Report Filter = Project Names & Dates (filtered on 2 fields)

then the pivot table of data shows
Dept, Sum of Hours, Sum of Total ($), Sum of Days

When you click on the drop down to adjust the filter for the Date it gives you the whole list of dates, day by day as it is in the source data.

Is there a way to make it in the filter by month and year, the way it would in an ordinary filter. So if I wanted to have the pivot table show only the values with an October date I can, rather than having to deselect all and then individually check the boxes for the 1st through to the 31st of October.?

Excel 2007 :: Pivot Table - Daily And Monthly Field Grouping

Oct 17, 2011

I'm using Excel 2007 and am having an issue with grouping/ungrouping fields in pivot tables.

I have 2 separate pivot tables, both from the same named data source, but summarizing different data selections. Both tables include the date field, I am trying to produce both a daily and a monthly table, but whenever I change the grouping/ungrouping of the date field setting on one table, the other table changes to the same grouping.

Is there anyway to have one table with an ungrouped date field and one table with the grouped to month date field?
