I have a pivot table and if i select my headers i have the availability to sort a-z and z-a plus manual ...manual says to drag the item where i would like it... I have tried the excel database..they reference manual sort but really give no explanation.
Scenario.. I want to sort a-z.. then manual sort a few items to the top of the list..
My pivot table is not auto summing each column properly, and I can't manually enter a formula to do so. I tried adjusting the settings of the rows and columns through the pivot table wizard, but no luck. Is there a way around this limitation?

I am baffled by the behavior of this code to manipulate one of my pivot tables. I am trying to set all but one of the pivot items in one of the pivot fields to not visible. Because there is a large number of items, I wish to suspend all automatic updates until all items are properly set to visible or non visible.

I have a problem as I need to present data with different data sources. I'd like the calculations to be as "automatic" as possible. The data consists of countries and regions and their sales pipe. The pivot table doesn't give me all the data that I need to present so I need to add extra columns with calculations and data from other data sources.
The problem I meet is that the 'total row' within each group needs to be reflected in my columns as well (F:G) It works as long as the data I've imported has the same amount of States within each group of Contry but if the number of states differs with the newly imported data - my "manual" columns are wrong.
(A;B;C;D;E;F;G;H)
Country;State; Red; Amber; Green; Quota; Total PV; Coverage;
I've created a Pivot table on the first 5 columns [Country; ...; Risk] (A:E)
The following columns are manually entered based on the pivot (F:H)
Quota (data source from another sheet)
Total PV (a sum of Red; Amber; Green in the Pivot)
Coverage (returns % of TotalPV/Quota)
For each group Quota and Total PV needs to summarize the above data within the group. I've 'hard coded it' today (SUM(F3:F5)) - F3:F5 can as well be F3:F8 or F3:F4 depending on the imported data. I have 8 different Countries (groups) with different amounts of States and 3 different sheets for each Region of countries so I need this summary to be automatic based on what group (Country) it belongs to. How can I make the calculation different so that it's dynamic as well as the Pivot table? Today it's not dynamic and it needs my 'hands on'.
Quota =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("total";A6)); SUM(F3:F5); IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B6;Quota!B:F;3; FALSE));" ";
IF(VLOOKUP(B6;Quota!B:F;3; FALSE)=0; " ";(VLOOKUP(B6;Quota!B:F;3; FALSE))))).
If a user changes some data in a pivot table and then refreshes the table, the changed values are supposed to revert to the source data, right? This does not happen in my pivot table.
Any changes made in the underlying data get transferred to the pivot table refresh, as expected. But if I change some values in the pivot table, followed by a refresh, then the cells that I changed remain the same unless I happened to modify the corresponding values in the underlying source data too. In other words, the refresh operation does not touch the pivot table except specifically where an update is driven by a change in the underlying data.
This behavior is different from what i remember from, say, excel 97 / 2000.
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

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 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.

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.
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.
I'm trying to write a macro that will create a pivot table, and am getting an Error code 1004: Cannot Open Pivot Table Source File "Sheetname". My code is below. I've tried to note what each section does, and it all seems to work well except for the Pivot Table creation.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI 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"

I have a list of parts in a table. I am manually copy/pasting this list to another sheet in my workbook and then using DATA→Remove Duplicates to get a shortened list. Is there a way to automate this process?
In the attached workbook I want the yellow cells to auto-fill for me.
I get a lot of lists in the format on the left hand side so I want excel to automatically format them for me so that I can use the output on the right.

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.
I have a pivot table that I created and now I want to use the same pivot cache to create another pivot table instance on a different worksheet. how can I do that? My first worksheet gets saved as "OO By buyer" and now I want to create a new worksheet and drop the next pivot there.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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
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

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.
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

Is it possible to create pivot table from another multiple pivot table.
Example: I have two diff pivot table "Income" and "Expense" as well
and I need to preapare new pivot table using with those two pivot table
I have a list of items and their associated quantities, many items appearing multiple times. I need a concise list that summarizes each item and sums all of its quantities.
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?
I manage a team that quote for business. They are targetted on number of quotes per month but then also wins per month, however a win may come a number of months after the original quote was generated.
They work off a spreadsheet where they log:
Quote date (And month)
Quote Value
... customer info etc
Win month (against orginal quote information)
Win value (against orginal quote information)
I started writing my pivot using the Quote month as the main reference point, IE Quote Month in the Row, and then put all the data in the central drop data section... However, there are two immediate problems with this:
They are targetted on quotes generated per month, some business won has come from last year, which they are lifting from the old spreadsheet and puttin in my new one... meaning that quotes they generated in Oct 2012 are now showing up as quotes for October this year.
If the wins span a number of months they are showing in January (if quoted in January) and not in March (when actually won)
Is there a better way of writing my pivot table??? There must be... ideally what I would like is half the table referencing the Quote date and half referencing the order date... but I don't know how to do this? I could probably do this with pages but I would like to show all on one sheet...
