I get the error message "The PivotTable field name is not valid. To create a PivotTable report, you must use data that is organized as a list with labeled columns. If you are changing the name of a pivot Table field, you must type a new name for the field." when I try to make a pivot-table.
View 3 RepliesI successfully created two PivotTables two days ago, but when I added more rows of data to the source worksheet I could not refresh either PivotTable view. So after much frustration, I deleted both worksheets and again tried to create a new PivotTable using the wizard. I keep getting this error, and have no idea what it is telling me so that I can go about fixing it:
"The PivotTable field name is not valid. To create a PivotTable report, you must use data that is organized as a list with labeled columns. If you are changing the name of a PivotTable field, you must type a new name for the field."
The code I'm using that results in the following error message: "Run-Time Error '1004':
The pivotTable field name is not valid. To create a pivottable report, you must use data that is organized as a list with labeled columns. If you are changing the name of a pivottable field, you must type a new name for the field." Here's the code, I've seperated it into each sub hoping that will make it easier to read:
Option Explicit
Sub main_prog()
Call td_metrics_import
Call pt_td_metrics("Pivot_Page1", "PivotTable1", "PivotTable2")
Call pt_td_metrics("Pivot_Page2", "PivotTable3", "PivotTable4")
Call create_graph
End Sub...............

Field names look fine - no punctuation no merged cells
If I select one column - any single column I can generate a pivot table but not with multiple columns
I have a pivot table with a field called "created on" which is a series of dates, i want to create a field called "Days in Pipeline" which would essentially be =TODAY()-'Created On'
This doesn't seem to work, i get an error: Your formula includes a function that cannot be used in PivotTable formulas...
I have a section of code that takes SO long, but I have to have it. Bascially, I need a pivot field to be set to "All", but there HAS to be a faster way. Here's my
Sub FloorCompareSetter()
Dim pt As PivotTable
Dim pi As PivotItem
Set pt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PinPointPivot")
' Speeds up code dramatically
pt.ManualUpdate = True
'Set the floor comparison for managers, coaches, and reps
' Make sure all PivotItems along line are visible
For Each pi In _
pt.PivotFields("Manager").PivotItems
pi.Visible = True
Next pi
pt.ManualUpdate = False
End Sub

i have a database of monthly sales of a regional distributor and im using a pivot table to manipulate my data. i want to show only what account makes a positive sales for a specific product and i want to get the total number of accounts who have the positive sales. there are multiple entries in my database, the condition is if an account have positive sales of a specific product regardless on how many times the account bought the result should be 1 (meaning one buying account)
i've tried to use a calculated field in my pivot table, i get the correct result per account but when it comes to grand total its not getting the sum of the total number of accounts. here is the sample of what i need to get..
you can see that there are multiple entries but it shows only 1 per account when it has at least 1 positive sales of a specific product and 0 if it hasn't any sales/negative... and for the total it adds the number of accounts to get the total number of buying accounts..
What code can I use to reference the total cell at the end of a field called "Calls Offered" in the data area of a pivot table called "PivotTable2"?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a PivotTable which shows the number of packs produced in a month. I created a calculated field which shows the number of vehicles needed to move these packs. The number of packs per vehicle is dependent on two criteria, the Pack Description and the Store. My calculated field, Shunts, is described as:
=Packs / IF(Store ="Middlewich",IF('Pack desc' ="Tall",30,60),IF('Pack desc' ="Tall",26,52))
which represents the logic
Middlewich & Tall = Packs / 30
Middlewich & other = Packs / 60
Other & tall = Packs / 26
Other & other = Packs / 52
However, it doesn't work!
I know Calculated Fields can be difficult to work with, but this is crazy and I think I'm missing something obvious as I'm sure I've had IFs work like this before!
I've attached my example, also showing the values I'd expect to see.
I am thinking of using a listbox so a user can select a product to graph. What I want to know, in VBA, is how do I use the selection the user makes and use it in a pivot table current page field? The listbox returns a number whereas I want the text. I can use the number when it is linked to a cell and a vlookup to get the text but how do I get the text into the current page field?

I try to extract datas from a pivottable (so one data source) which could change.
The items of one field are changing (given by the user through Inputbox): "batch"
The items of the second field ("type plate") are at each time visible (the macro make them visible to have the complete information concerning the "batch")
So I want to extract values and labels from one particular pivottable (the one I display), selecting several batches. But the problem is that some of the items have no value, so disapear fron the table) even if they are visible. As I extract the value on each item (see code below) I get an error message saying "runtime error 1004 application-defined" when the macro read "valeur".
Dim pt1 As PivotTable
Dim pf As PivotField
Dim pi As PivotItem
Dim pj As PivotItem
Dim i As Double
Dim valeur As String
I tried to go through this problem using "on error goto solution" but it works only one time, and after same error message
How coud I avoid to calculate "valeur" with the Items (pi) not displayed ?
I created an add-in for Excel 2003 by following your site's instructions, substituting my own subroutine's name for "MyGreatMacro" (for the purposes on testing all it does is spit out a MsgBox). I then put the resulting xla file on a network drive and went through the standard process for installing an Addin :
Tools -> Addins -> Browse for the file and hit ok, check it off, etc
This works perfectly fine when i try to install on my own machine, but when I try on other user's machines I get an error message stating that the xla file is not a valid Addin. Excel's error message in this case is about as unhelpful as they come.
I am hoping that someone has a workaround for this as I am unable to find anything using extensive web searches.
Excel 2003 on a PC running Windows XP. I need to be able to summarize Pivot table field settings by MEDIAN. Excel allows me to summarize by AVERAGE but there is no option for MEDIAN.
To get to the function
On the PivotTable toolbar click on "Field Settings". Under the "PivotTable Field" look at the options provided in the "Summarize by:" field.
I used the vba recorder to get the code and didn't change one thing, and now I am getting an error when i click on the command button to execute the code.

I have a macro that takes the date from different excel sheets, consolidates the data and renders the pivot table and chart accordingly. It was working fine when the date range defined for the pivot table was static. Now I have made it dynamic since the data range changes each month depending on the number of days it has got. When I run the macro, it runs succesfully, generates the report and save & close the report, but after that I am getting this error. Errorneous

I have created a macro to run different imports on the system and I need a message box calculated at the en displaying the message "Write Total Charges to Import: xxxx".
The total is the Sum of the cells listed on Column B. I have defined my total and need to show the message, and after the user has writen down the total and clicks OK, the cell showing the total is deleted. how to make it work?
The syntax I am using is:
Range("B" & EndRow + 2) = "=SUM(B2:B" & EndRow & ")"
MsgBox "Write Total Charges to Import: "
Range("B" & EndRow + 2).Select
Selection.Delete
The calculation to display is the result of (Range("B" & EndRow + 2) = "=SUM(B2:B" & EndRow & ")") but when I add the formula next to "Write Total Changes to Import" does not work.
I have two question for Excel in combination with microsoft outlook:
1. I was wondering if it is possible to create an email from Excel which automatically adds the From-field with a pre-defined emailadres. I am using CreateObject("Outlook.Application"), but I can not add the From-field.
2. I also would like to know if it is possible to do automatically fill the To-field with the emailadress from the user who send me the original file. Maybe this needs some more explanation (sorry my english isnt too good):
* A user can download an excel-form from the internet
* The form is sent to my emailadress
* I give a number to the form
* The user will get a message that his question is attend to with the number of the question
So I use a macro-button to reply when I have filled in the question-number.
I am looking for a more efficient way to write a macro (a sample from the macro is below). This is just the first part of the macro. I need to repeat these same steps (seen for row 5 below) for rows 5 to 50. My script worked until I hit row 35 and then I got the "compile error.." message. There must be a way to use "loop" to write this more efficiently, no?
View 14 Replies View RelatedMy problem is I have a field when imported occasionally has a #Value! error in it. Most of the records are fine. As I will be importing it into another DB I need to have the #Value! removed and replaced with a Zero. Here is what I tried. I have a field that is displaying a #value! error. In another field that is referencing that field I wanted to do the following if statement. Basically if that error value is displayed show a zero, else show the value of the square. (Note I also tried it with an IIF but got a # Name? error)
If((Q2) = "#Value!",0,(Q2))
Or should I be looking for an error? When I ran it, It basically gave me the value of the Q2 field.
If((Q2) = Error(#Value!),0,(Q2))
Or is there some other way to get around the error?
For some reason my form won't open when the workbook is opened. I get an error message "run time error '424' object required" (which happens when I have Form1.show in the BOTH workbook_open event and the userform_initialize event (oops)). When I removed form1.show from the userform_initialize I don't get an error but I also get no form. I recall having this issue before but I can't recall how to fix it.
Can I call the userform_initialize event from the workbook open event to get around this successfully and properly?

Below is the formula can someone please help with the IF portion that I can use to correct this statement. =SUM(B12:E12)/F12
I do hit the SCE (Shift-CTRL-Enter) keys. The formula does work in one workbook, but not the other. The only difference between the two workbooks is this formula has a larger range.
New Formula- doesn't work (ERROR- #DIV/0!)
{=AVERAGE(IF(Sheet1!A3:A1094="MONDAY",Sheet1!E3:E1094))}
Old Formula- works
{=AVERAGE(IF(B6:B451="MONDAY",E6:E451))}
When I input the formula : =(G9+G16+G23+G30+G37+G44+G51+G58+G65+G72+G79+G86+G93+G100+G107+G114+G121)/17
