Pivot Table Interpreting Same Category As Two Separate Categories

Jun 19, 2009

I am using a pivot table to summarise information with a list of tonnes and sources from civic amenity sites. All was fine until I got to this month to do monthly reports. The pivot table appears to be treating what appears to be exactly the same categories of "CIVIC" and "TRANSFER" differently. By this I mean that although the values in the column appears to be "CIVIC" or "TRANSFER", some get treated differently in the pivot table making it pretty useless. I have made sure that all spellings of the words are the same. there are no spaces before or after the word e.g " CIVIC" but to no avail!

Excel 2003 :: Create Pivot Table That Aggregates Equal Data From Separate Categories

May 29, 2012

Is it possible to aggregate data in a pivot table from different categories?

I have excel 2003.

For PURE illustration, I have 6 columns, A-F, respectively:

"TV Show", 4 columns for names of people who watched the show (Persons 1, 2, 3, and/or 4), and finally, the duration / "Time" of the show.

I want to see in a final output:

Anytime a person has watched the show (whether i have penned him in columns 1, 2, 3 or 4), Excel to aggregate the total hours watched by that person.

When i try to do this with my pivot table i run into an error: if Person A watched "TV Show X" in row 1 and his name is in the Person 1 Column, Excel will not aggregate his TV time with "TV Show Y" in Row 2 when his name is in the Person 2 column.

It will sum up the categories separately even if the "Person" inputs in the separate "Person" columns are exact matches.

Pivot Table / Chart To Filter Categories

Apr 28, 2014

I have a list of customer satisfaction scores that are pulled in from a sharepoint list. The list is then used to create a pivot chart that is used in a web part on a dashboard in sharepoint. The chart is supposed to show average customer satisfaction scores per category per month.

The problem I have is that I can't filter the categories using a slicer, I can only filter the categories' values (i.e. the scores). I can filter by date though.

When I try to filter the various score categories/series (Support, Change Management etc) I only get the option to filter their values i.e. 1,2,3,4,5.

I want to be able to use a slicer or similar to be able to display either all of the series or just selected ones.pivottable.JPGpivotchart.JPG

Count By Categories Within Pivot Chart/Table

Mar 17, 2008

I can not get my Pivot Chart to count, sort and categorized my data. I have included a sample file for your viewing. I basically want the data in cells C2:E18 counted, sorted and totaled by categories and locale. I thought the pivot charting was simple, but I'm having quite a challenge with this one. The pivot chart data should reflect as my sample indicates in cells E24:K27

Missing Category Field In VBA Pivot Table

Jan 11, 2013

I have a macro to create a report and it selects to place in the pivot table. The problem is that sometimes in my basic data for creating the pivot table, not all the same fields are there. Here is what it looks like for this section now.

With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Category Id")
.PivotItems("ARMS/AMMO/EXPLOSIVES").Visible = False
.PivotItems("COMPUTER").Visible = False
.PivotItems("COUNTERFEIT GOODS").Visible = False
.PivotItems("DRUGS").Visible = False
.PivotItems("GENERAL MDS/OTHER").Visible = False
.PivotItems("PROHIBITED ITEMS").Visible = False
End With

In the instance for today, the field "Drugs" is not in my main data. So I get an error box and it stops because the category is not there. How can I get this to continue if one of the fields is not found?

List Expenses By Categories Dropdown And Then Total Of Each Category?

Mar 11, 2014

I'm working on making a monthly expense report with 2 sheets; the first sheet would include each individual expense and the expense would placed in a certain category. The second worksheet would be a summary of the total expenses for each category.

I would like column A to be a drop down menu:

Column A: Expense type (Stationery, Kitchen, Maintenance, etc..)

Column B: Amount

This would continue for as many rows as i need

Then on a different worksheet it would add each item based on its category and give a total for each category.

Pivot Time Series With Two Different Categories

Dec 29, 2013

I have a series of up to 40 or so entries for given dates. These entries are categorised by either "bid" or "offer" and I'm trying to find a way to chart them both using a pivot table. I'm stuck as it seems that a pivot can only count the number of bids and offers on any given day, but it cannot differentiate between them.

Note: that the original list the pivot depends on will constantly be updated so I can't just develop a custom chart.

I've attached a spreadsheet with an example of what I'm playing with. Pivot graph is in "PIVOT" worksheet, data is in "DATA".

Excel 2013 :: Power Pivot Summarize Value By Category From Total?

Apr 17, 2014

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

Excel 2010 :: Pivot Table Reference Is Not Valid When Moving Data And Pivot Table Together?

Mar 19, 2013

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.

VBA - Adjust Pivot Table Included Fields To Match Another Pivot Table

Mar 14, 2013

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"

Adjust Column Label Selection Multiple Pivot Tables Based On One Pivot Table

Aug 16, 2013

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.

Months To Be Sorted In Ascending Order In Pivot Table, Want To Use Multiple Colors In Pivot Charts

Sep 18, 2008

My input data for Pivot table has a column named "Month". The month values are like April 07, April 08, Nov07 in random order for period between Jan 07 to Aug 08.

When I create a pivot Table, this column is sorted alphabetically (April 07 is followed by April 08) but I need it to be sorted in the ascending order with respect to month (April 07 is followed by May 07).

I further use this data to plot a Pivot Chart. There is another issue here. I want to use separate colors for each series. I do not know how to achieve above 2 things.

Pivot Table - Loop Through Pivot Item Children?

Jan 7, 2014

I'm not grasping the Pivot Table correctly. I've written code to create a sum of values based on a worksheet. Specifically:LocationIDDeptSum of Hours Worked. Location, ID and Dept are rows. This effectively provides the aggregate values that I need based on the row groupings.Here's where this is falling apart. I need to create a new worksheet based on these values. I assumed the three row values - Location, ID and dept - would be in a hierarchy. It's possible they are, I just can't figure out the object model.

When I loop through the PivotItems collection of the PivotFields("Location"), I get what I need. However, I'm unable to determine how to loop through the child values (just for that location). PivotFields("ID") returns all IDs. I can't figure out how to return only the child entries for each pivot item. GetPivotData hasn't been very useful for this. As far as I can tell, GetPivotData, while its return type is listed as Range, throws an error when more than one cell is returned. Worst case, I suppose I can just parse the data in the DataBodyRange of the pivot table - maybe not, I haven't tried that. I'm hoping there's a way to iterate through these collections, but based on what I've seen from Google searches, there may not be. Does my pivot table need to be rearranged? I suppose I could also just dump this data into a data table

Excel 2010 :: (VBA) Pivot Table And Pivot Cache?

Mar 13, 2014

My macro is designed to look at a summary source tab and create a new tab for each unique project number. It then creates a pivot table from five different source detail tabs and filters on the project number. If a tab already exists it selects the tab and moves on to the next project number. There are six pivot tables created for every project.

New data is added each month to the source tabs and I have a macro to delete all pivot tables and the macro will recreate the pivot tables when ran again.

Issue: Running out of resources At work I'm limited to the use of Excel 2010 (32bit) so I'm restricted on 2GB of memory. At home I ran the file successfully (64bit) and it was around 3GB of memory.

My macro creates a new pivot cache for every pivot table where as I'm trying to only use 6 pivot caches in my coding. I kill it half way through and it's around 100+ caches causing unnecessary usage of memory.

Fix / Solution:

Correctly code the vba to only create six caches and code the rest the pivot tables to use that cache.The only difference in the Pivot Tables is that it’s sorted on the Project Number.

Code:

Dim VBAPPPC As PivotCache
Dim VBAAPPC As PivotCache
Dim VBAPRPC As PivotCache
Dim VBAEXPC As PivotCache
Dim VBAMJPC As PivotCache
Dim VBAIVPC As PivotCache
Dim VBAPT As PivotTable

Pivot Table Name And Pivot Field Properties Not Getting Recorded?

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.

Refresh Pivot Tables Linked To Pivot Table

Jul 25, 2006

I currently have several pivot table that's linked to a single pivot table(let's call it X) in the same workbook. I'm doing this to limit the file size because the data in X comes from a text file that has millions of lines. However, it's such a pain every time I need to update the tables because simply clicking "refresh" does not update those tables that are linked to X with new data. I would have to instruct the wizard in every linked table to point to X every time. I'm trying to write a small program to re-point to X for each of those other pivot tables whenever i refresh data. However, after trying to record the steps to do this I'm still unable to run these

How To Mimic A Pivot Table Without A Pivot Table

The obvious solution is a pivot table. However, I update this list frequently and for some reason the pivot table is difficult to update. is there a function or simple vba code that I could put into this workbook that would work better than my unflexible pivot table?
