Update Source Data For Multiple Pivot Tables With VBA
Dec 16, 2013
The spreadsheet is comprised of 4 sales data sheets, one for each store. Each of these sales data sheets runs several pivot tables (One for dept sales, one for waste, one for sales on Selected UPCs etc) and I used to have 1 copy of each pivot table for each store (ie 24 pivot tables). Now I have found a way to have only 1 copy of each PivotTable which changes based on which store is selected using the following code:
I have a single workbook with multiple worksheets. Each worksheet has a different pivot table displaying a different view of the data. Each pivot table uses the same source data at worksheet1.
Each week i add new data to the end of the source data, which means that I need change the source data reference separately in each pivot table to update each pivot table view to include the new data. This is laborious as there are quite a few pivot tables.
Was wondering if there is some way of changing the pivot table source data reference on all pivot tables at the same time.
I have multiple pivot tables with different data source. I wish to have one slicer which control all the pivot tables. I would have one common colum for all the pivot tables which is the one i wish to control for instance the person in charge. Note that all my pivot tables are from different data source. how to do it?
I am trying to generate several pivot tables from one data source table. I have successfully created my first pivot table (A date field, and a water storage facility level reading) and subsequently a graph from this. I have worked out that I need to group my dates as I am supplied a daily reading, but only need monthly average. All worked great.
Now i need to create more pivot tables and graphs. The next one I want is to create one grouped by years. But when I create this new pivot table and change the grouping of the date field to yearly, it also changes the grouping on my first pivot table, which is undoing my work.How to tell excel that these pivots are independent, and I don't want them changing in unison? See screen grab of my source data and where I am up to...

I have ~ 300 pivots (one on each tab) all linking to one data set in the same workbook. I realized that I neglected to select the year 2006 in my column label for every pivot table and hoping that there is some way to
simultaneously update all pivots to include 2006 data instead of manually checking the box off one by one.
I have a pivot table whose data source is located on a shared network drive. Each day a new data source is uploaded and the only thing that changes is the date in the filename (ie. DataSource080813.xlsx). I am trying to find a way to set the data source to update with todays date automatically each day so that when you open the workbook it is always current days data. I have a cell (B2) with a formula in it that gives me the file location of todays file (ie. X:TeamFolderFile1DataSource080813.xlsx, where the date is derived using the TODAY() function. Is there a way to set the pivot table data source to cell B2 and have it use the text from B2 as the file location?
I would like not to have to update the source data for the pivot table in my database. I've read that you can solve this by using a Dynamic Named Range and using that as the source for the pivot table. That way the pivot table will expand as new data is added to the database. The formula I used to create the DNR is:
why is pivot table changing numbers to dates. It was fine all along, numbers retained the fromat of source data and now, all numbers in field columns are turning into dates. is there a setting I can change to prevent excel from reformatting numbers to dates?
trying to get pivot tables to automatically update every 4 minutes.
I have 3 worksheets:
worksheet 1: SCANNER, this sheet pulls in data externally using an =RTD links
worksheet 2: RAW, this manipulates the data above, and this is the data used to create the pivot tables
worksheet 3: SUMMARY, the pivot tables are here, there are 9 of them.
Worksheet RAW, changes every so often, and every 4 minutes I would like to have the pivot tables AUTO REFRESHto make sure its using the latest data from RAW.
I see options to autorefresh on the opening of the workbook, but cant see anything to REFRESH EVERY X MINUTES.
I have 3 pivot tables on the same page - they all have the same PAGE and ROW fields, just different column and data fields. (may seem weird, but I'm producing reports for non-Excel people and this seems the only way to display info in user-friendly way).
Problem: If a user changes the selection in a Page field, I need the other 2 pivot tables to automatically select the same Page field, so the pivot tables are still all like-for-like.
I've started writing a macro which I can run to do this - below - but
1) I need it to run automatically when any of the page or row fields are updated
2) my macro is probably far too basic for my needs - one of the page fields has 245 values, so the below isn't really going to cut it!...
I am trying to combine sorted data from 2 worksheets to a new work sheet to process further. I have one worksheet with order number, part number, order qty but with different delivery dates. On another worksheet, I have the order number too, part number, the qty delivered. The qty delivered is not always the same each delivery.
My aim is to find out how many are already delivered under a certain purchase order and the balance of undelivered parts.
I used pivot tables to sort out the data but I am stuck here not knowing how to extra the sorted data from the pivot tables to the 3rd worksheet. I will need to match the order number and the part number.
I have a pivot table created from a cube of data not within the file I am working in. I have created a macro that will update, but only for the specified timeframe. I have a separate worksheet within my file that will allow a manger to specify what timeframe he wants to see. Can I edit a macro to read from a source that is different than where the data is being pulled from?
I have one source spreadsheet, where are columns NAME, DATE. I read these data by ADO to other spreadsheet, where I can change/delete data and then run macro for update data in source spreadsheet. The problem: In source spreadsheet is column "NAME" and column "DATE", with values e.g. "Joseph"; 1.1.1980. I read this data to other spreadsheet, then I delete in it value 1.1.1980. When I run macro Update, it messages error.
Sub UpdateItem ... .Fields.Item(1).value = activecell 'activecell value = "Joseph" If Not isempty(activecell.offset(0,1)) Then .Fields.Item(2).value = activecell.offset(0,1).value Else .Fields.Item(2).value = "" 'I tried Empty and 0 too but when I read data again then, it displays 0.1.1900, nothing works End If ... End Sub
It seems that in source spreadsheet has data in column "Date" format Date and when I try to update data in format String ("") in source spreadsheet by Update macro, it messages error. When I used
.Fields.Item(2).Value = Empty ' or .Fields.Item(2).Value = 0
after rereading data it displays 0.1.1900 What I want to get is that if the cell with date (in other spreadsheet) is empty, the cell in column Date in source spreadsheet after updating will be blank (contains no values).
I have a report that was created for 2005 that contains two worksheets: a "source data" worksheet and a " pivot table" worksheet. I cleared out the 2005 data in the "source data" worksheet and replaced it with 2006 data...after this I refreshed the Pivot Table and everything seemed fine. When looking at the file size I noticed that it was almost twice its original size....upon further investigation I found that the Pivot Table was internally holding onto the old source data (the "Show" functionality of the rows/columns in the table lists the 2005 row/column headers as well as the 2006 headers....even though no data from 2005 is shown in the Pivot Table).
Does anyone know how to purge the old data from the internal Pivot Table memory?
I hope this is enough information....let me know if you need more.
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 have a form (the main one) which accesses a second form, which accesses a third form. All forms have a combo box, control button and a text box.
The items selected in the control boxes are entered into cells (the base cells) in the spreadsheet, via “Control Source”. The text boxes access these cells and show the selected items, which are then copied to other cells via a macro on activating the control button in the main form.
The main form stays open while other items are selected and transferred. Some of the items may not be changed (reselected) as they may be common. The problem is that after a number of items have been selected and transferred, the base cells for the second and third text boxes do not update after a selection from the combo boxes, and they continue to show a previously selected item.
The problem can be solved by closing the 2nd and 3rd forms and starting again. What can I do keep the cells updating without closing the form down?
I'm having a problem with data tables. Actually, not with data tables, but links to data tables. Calculation is set to be automatic and values within data tables update alright, but links to those values do no update. So you may have a certain value in one cell within a data table, for example cell B5, and a different value in another cell which is just a link to cell B5.
I am having a lot of trouble with pivot tables in Excel 2007 VBA. I am trying to create pivot tables using macros (connected to buttons the user can press to create the pivot table) - please don't ask why, but i need to do this!!!
I used the record fuction in excel 2007 to produce macro code which will produce the required pivot tables when the user presses a button.
Unfortuanately the coding seems to work fine when i have one pivot table in a file but breaks down if i record code to produce another pivot table.
I have attached some code below (which was produced by the record function) and is intended to produce 2 seperate pivot tables (the macro submacro2 produces the 1st pivot table and the macro submacro4 lower down the page produces the 2nd pivot table). I have also indicated the point in sub 4 where the code breaks down - basically submacro4 just doesnt run!
Background: I know ZERO about VBA and I am a Vlookup & Pivot Table noob, but experimenting everyday.
Every week, since August 29, 2009, I get a sales report from my customer in raw form showing point of sales data for the previous 7 days. After manipulating the data I end up with 11 columns.
Now, if I am only concerned with that one week then I can drop the whole sheet into a Pivot Table and all is well.
However, I have 12 sheets now (with more to come), one for each week, and the row count ranges from 3,328 to 16,414.
I do not want to consolidate the data.
I can copy everything to one sheet, and hope not to max out at the million row mark, but would prefer to keep it tabbed by week.
The Pivot Table is exactly what I want and I like that I can also sort by school or district. The problem: Cells B6 through E6 show up with correct information but the totals below that are all wrong. They seem to pull the same data from question 4.
I have entered all the formulas into my table (sheet 1) referenced to the source data but I want to upadate the source data regularly but when I delete sheet 2 all the formulas come up with #Ref error. how i can update my source data so my table automatically updates
For data I am using 1 pivot table. I have 4 tabs which use this pivot table to present different data on each tab.
For the first question, I have the same pivot table in the sheet twice in order to have multiple pivot charts with similar data but setup differently. I found this to be the simplest solution to presenting the data in the manner I want to see it. Otherwise I wish to set the tables up so that if I change a filter in one of the tables that the data is automatically updated to both tables.
The second question, this relates to the first question somewhat. I wish to change filters in 1 pivot table from tab one, and once that tab is updated I wish for all of the other tabs with this same pivot table to automatically update with the filter changes from the first time.
I have 3 different pivot tables (with 3 different data sources) on 3 seperate sheets (sheet2, sheet3 & sheet4). Each pivot table has a report filter which contains employees names. On sheet 1 I have a sort of 'dashboard' set up feeding from the data in the pivot tables, and a combo box form control from which I can select the employees names.
Currently, if I want to see John's data, I need to go to Sheet1 and select 'John' from the report filter, then goto Sheet2 and select 'John' from the report filter & the same for Sheet 3. I was wondering if it is possible to somehow link the pivot tables to the combo box - so that when I select 'John' from the combo box on Sheet1, it automatically selects 'John' in the report filters on sheets 2,3, & 4.
I have to track how well location managers are keeping track of skill competencies.
We rate skills as... 0 – know nothing , 1 – read training manual, 2 – check off by manager.
I need the managers to provide these ratings then I have to report what locations need more training. When an new employee is entered into the system, the manager should give them a target of 2 for each skill the employee needs to gain. If the target skill is 2 rating higher than the current skill level, I have a column named Delta that records a 2.
I have learned how to use the pivot table feature. I can make separate pivot tables using filters that show… a) how many 2s each employee has for a target, b) how many 2s each employee has for deltas, a) how many 2s each employee has for a current level and I can show the date the 2s where achieved
What I need is to learn how to combine all of this information on one pivot table (or report), but the filters really seem to make a mess of it all when it is all together. adding multiple sheets to one Pivot table.
Screenshots... Count of Targets Count of Deltas=2 Count of Current Skills !What I need to produce!
I am trying to find a way to set up a macro that will allow me to pull in data - create the Pivot table - delete the table - then pull in fresh data (of a different row length - same number of columns) and create another Pivot table. I have tried to manipulate recorded code to no avail. Here is what I am starting with:
Const lngLastPossRow As Long = 65536 Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(Cells(lngLastPossRow, 1).End(xlUp).Row, 24)).Name = "Data"
While it creates the first pivot table fine, after deleting it and starting again it wants to create the next sequence (PivotTable3) which crashes the macro. I must close the file and reopen to run it again.
I am trying to update multiple pivot tables from different OLAP cubes based on the same cell value that an user defines, namely one country for which he/she wants the create the report for. The code I recorded goes like this:
VB: Sub TUR()
Sheets("Pivot").Select ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("[Geography].[Geography]"). _ ClearAllFilters ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("[Geography].[Geography]"). _ CurrentPageName = "[Geography].&[TUR]" End Sub
In this example, TUR stands for Turkey.
Basically, I have over 20 countries and at least 3 different OLAP cube-based pivot tables in my report, I can do it with 3 x 20 different macros but that seems like taking the long way.
