Sort Multiple Columns - Use Pivot Table?
May 14, 2012
I need to put a worksheet together that has multiple columns that I can then sort in order (on any one columns that affects each row together) in "vehicle type".
I want to set it up so the full listing can be sorted top to bottom in colour or then click sort to sort in MAX SIZE and or again sort in SPEED. (So sort in Alpabetical order or by value).
I havent used pivot tables before and assume its the best way. I dont want to use the filter system to sort as its too clumsy for the end user.

How do I create a pivot table with multiple data columns? My fixed asset software will not let me create a report to list multiple months/ quarters. I've created a spreadsheet that I can dump each month into, but I'd like to be able to sort by G/L acct or Department. When I try to create a pivot table, I can't get it to accept each month as a data field. Ive attached a copy of the spreadsheet that I'm using & the report that I'd like it to look like.

I am trying to round a number to the next half penny. The mround function would seem to work but does not work for fractions.

My pivot table wants to total 2 sets of data and put it in rows. I would like it to be in columns.
The small attached sample shows what I would like.

I have a huge data set with survey data (sample attached: sample.xlsx). Column headings: survey questions Row headings: respondent identifiers (names) Row data: answers to questions (numeric values, only five answer options 1,2,3,4 or 5, no blanks)
I need to build that kind of pivot table:
Rows - list of particular questions (i.e. questions no. 3, 7 and 12) Columns - list of all diffrent answer entries (eventually, it will be 1,2,3,4 and 5) - it could also be questions in columns and answers in row (no difference) Values - count answer entries (i.e. how many answers "5" are on quesiton 3)
------
UPDATE: explanation added.
The reason I need pivot tables: i'll have to cross analyze multiple sets of questions. I'll have to do such cross-analysis 100+ times, so, writing a formula for each time does not quite work...

I am trying to create a Chart from a Pivot Table. I want the Chart to show my projects and present each months amounts side-by-side comparing (Plan, Actual, Forecast) data each month for the calendar year.
I am trying to figure out how to generate the pivot table showing multiple projects so that the data is grouped by month comparing (Plan, Actual, Forecast) data. Projects are listed down the Rows while months Jan-Dec are along the columns. Each month has 3 columns because the second row contains header for the data sets of Plan, Actual & Forecast. (see sample below) When I try to create a Pivot Table, It shows multiple month fields (Jan, Jan2, Jan3, Feb, Feb2, Feb3) instead of a single month.

I have a table that looks like this:
Code:
TechNum | FirstName | LastName | System | WorkDate | Values
I need the pivot table to look like this:
Code:
-->System
--> TechNum - FirstName LastName
--> WorkDate
I need the sorting to look like this:
Code:
-->System
--> TechNum
--> WorkDate
How do I show the first three fields in the same level of the pivot table and still maintain the sort cascade?

I need to format some information in an Excel file, before exporting it. All the pivot table information I have found online is primarily for account management, using counts and sums. The data is currently in this format:
DEV#WIRE#SWITCH-1A123AMP-1A124AMP-1A125AMP-1A126SWITCH-2A127
I need to sort it into this format in another sheet or another area in the same sheet:
DEV#WIRE#1WIRE#2WIRE#3AMP-1A124A125A126SWITCH-1A123SWITCH-2A127

Everyday I've to make Pivot Table from Data given by Branch Manager. When I create Pivot, my Row Label comes in order like
ICV TRUCK
LCV BUS
LCV TRUCK
MCV BUS
MCV TRUCK
PICKUP &
SCV shown in "automaticPivot" sheet in attached file. Later I arrange it in order of
MCV BUS
LCV BUS
MCV TRUCK
ICV TRUCK
LCV TRUCK
PICKUP
SCV by dragging manually everyday shown in "desiredRowLabelSort" sheet.
Is there any way that sort Row Label automatically instead of manually OR any other faster way than doing manually?

I wonder if someone can tell me if it is possible to sort rows in a pivot table based on a range in the same workbook.
I have the pivot table set up as I need it but the values in the row change each time the macro is run (it is run when new data is added)
As part of the macro a list of Grades is imported into the Workbook. These grades are always imported in the correct order. As such I would like the pivot table to follow the order of imported grade list. The grades in the list will always be the same as the list in the pivot table.
Is this something that would be possible to do?

I've got a group of data within a pivot table that I want to be sorted based on only part of the string. For example,
Standard Kitchen
Standard Master Bath
Standard Hall Bath
Optional Kitchen
Optional Basement Bath
First they would be sorted by whether they begin with Standard or Optional. Then within those groups, they would be sorted whether they contain Kitchen anywhere in the string. So that the order would be Standard Kitchens, Standard Anything Else, Optional Kitchens, Optional Anything Else.

I have entered a custom sort order under 'first key sort order,' but the field is not sorting according to the list.
I'm sure I entered the list correctly, because I actually entered it a long time ago, and it was working for a while. However, today the underlying data was temporarily erased, and the pivot table, when refreshed, basically went blank. I restored the data and refreshed the table, but this field is back to sorting in the wrong order. Refreshing the pivot table and re-choosing the appropriate sort options do not work.

Is there a way to generically sort all pivot rows of a pivot table alphabetically each time the table is refreshed? I have a pivot table that pulls its data from a dynamic named range on a separate worksheet. As users add data to the range and refresh the pivot table the newly added items appear at the bottom of the table rather than alphabetically. I know how to specifically call out a pivot row and have it sort alphabetically (see code below) but I still want to allow users the flexibility of changing the fields and order of the pivot rows so specifically calling out a pivot row by field name isn’t going to work. I need to somehow add code that says: For each pivot row (1 to n, where n = number of pivot rows) sort each in alphabetical order.
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("ptDWDM").PivotFields("Project Name").AutoSort _
xlAscending, "Project Name"
So in the above code I don’t want the reference to “Project Name” to be hard coded.

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.

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.

with this macro?
I have a lot of pivot tables on multiple sheets in one workbook.
I want to deselect all "(blank)" from rows, and sort both rows and columns in ascending order.
I recorded a macro but it only refers to specific pivot tables, I would like it to do the same sorting for all pivot tables in the workbook.
Sub PivotBlankSort()
'
' PivotBlankSort Macro
'
'
Windows("Alt Assessment Y10 13-14.xlsx").Activate
Sheets("L&C Prog Sum2").Select
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable10").PivotFields("English")
.PivotItems("(blank)").Visible = False
[Code]...
etc as I move to each separate pivot table.

I have some table with 3 columns: Name, Team, Players with the same name
I want to get to a 2 columns table without using "SORT" or something like that... using only formulas.
Maybe I wasn't so clear so I added a file with my problem.

I found this code on Ozgrid to sort all columns of a worksheet that were continuous with no gaps or spaces that works well:
Sub CopyToA()
Do While ActiveCell <> ""
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.End(xlDown)).Cut Destination:=Range("a65535").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select
Loop
End Sub
However, I've tried to manipulate the code myself to 1) find all columns that aren't empty then 2) sort each column individually (WITHOUT expanding the sort to other columns) and 3) combining all the numbers into one seperate column. There are many posts concerning sorting but not one that addressed this particular situation.

I have a pivot table that I create weekly to include the new week's data, as well as the rest of the weeks in the year. I'd like for the macro to pull all of the columns like "WE" into the pivot table so that it includes the current week. Below is what the code looks like now. Is there a way to tell the macro to pull columns based on "field name like" language? I've been able to get this far, but it doesn't loop the headers to find all of the columns that have WE headers.
Sub AddPTFields()
Dim PT As PivotTable
Dim PF As PivotField
Dim FldName As String
Dim LastCol As Integer
Dim TxtStr As String
Dim wsName As String

I want to get a subtotal of columns B C and D in a pivot table. I have tried to add a calculated item to a pivot table to add columns B C and D. When I try adding a calcuted item I am getting an additional column inserted after columns B C and D. Each additional column has the previous column duplicated. I want a subtotal of column B C and D. I don't want to use the grand total function because I also have columns E through H that I don't want in the subtotal.
How can I get the columns B C and D subtotaled within the pivot table?

How can you visually format a column with multiple values in a pivot table? Say you have month in the column section, and three values in the value section: budget, actuals, variance; I want to visually seperate each month's set of data.

is there anyway to arrange pivot table columns without manipulating the field list items?
in other words, in older versions of excel, you could just right click the column and select move left, or move right

I have a large data set that I want to pivot on to produce various results. I can easily pivot on two columns to produce those Unique IDs where East AND West are "Yes" or "No." I want an easy to filter on results where either East OR West is "yes." I could do this with a joined (Concatenated column) such as East/West but was hoping there might be an easier solution built into Excel pivot feature.
Unique ID

Yes
No
2

Pivot Tables. The structure and subject-content of cells B3:D14 (Block A) is identical to those of cells F3:H14 (Block B). I want a pivot table to treat the two Blocks as if they occupied the same three columns (e.g. B3:D26).

I'm trying to figure out a way ( excel 2000) how to sort data over a range of columns.
Attached is a sheet.
So what I am looking for is this:
Bottom 10 for target 1, target 2, target 3.
I can sort them indervidually, but is there a way to sort the all?
Or would I need a agent column for each target to sort?
Or maybe there is a way to sort the data so it would work out that if they are in the bottom 10 of lets say 2 of the targets but not all 3 they would still show in the bottom 10?

Why my vba sort re-arranges columns instead of just sorting them.
I have four columns of data: T = department, U = director, V = client, W = product.
The number of rows varies. The data needs to be sorted by T, U, V and then W. I tried to create a macro that would perform the sort in two steps:
Sub test()
With Sheet19
.Activate
.Range("T2:W" & Cells(Sheet19.Rows.Count, 20).End(xlUp).Row).Sort _
Key1:=Range("W2"), Order1:=xlAscending, _
Header:=xlNo, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlSortRows
[Code] ........
The macro sorts the data in the correct order, but it also puts column W before columns T, U and V.
So I end up with T = product, U = department, V = director, W = client.
