Pivot Table Show Data As "running Total In" Option
Nov 4, 2009
Does any one know how I can resolve the calculation error that shows up in a pivot table when you select "show data as a running total in" option and you end up with a very small difference error.
In other words if I add 12.96 + 2.04 + (-15) and you get 1.455E-11 instead of zero. When these calculation errors show up in normal spreadsheet calculations outside of pivot table you can always use the ROUND function to correct these arbitrary calculation errors.
I'm looking for a recommendion for handling this in a pivot table where I have a couple of hundred columns of data that are using the "running total in" option.
I am building a Pivot table and I need to show ONLY the Grand totals at the end of the table. In the example below I want to show only Total volume Stage movement at the end and not the subtotals in the columns.
I have run a pivot table state, city, address, floor and all the maths works out fine.. but the name in the 'total' rows, does not match the name in the data rows.. e.g. texas, dallas, 57 oilrig street has total rows saying CA toal,Newark total, 560 mission street total (obviously split across the appropriate rows for each total) but in each case, all those square feet, or dollars add up perfectly, for the data rows above them. double clicking the totals shows no sign of the rogue location... but these same entries are in EVERY set of totals in the pivot table!
POSSIBLE clue.. I generated the pivot at home, on Office 2003, and am now viewing it at work in 2002 version. (buit this could have nothing to do with it at all. Am I missing something obvious, or do i have good reason to pull my hair outr in frustration (first time this has happenned in a year of doing these reports daily)
I have a list of Insurance payers - 20 or so. They are listed in a Pivot Table on sheet2 with rate data and such. On sheet1 I have a listbox with the Payers listed and can be multi selected by the user. I wish to have the user select some payers in the listbox, goto sheet2 and view the Pivot Table only containing those Payers selected from the listbox.
I want to zero out or blank out my running balance in the columns where I do not have an amount entered. So instead of having my running balance total run all the way down the spreadsheet, I want it to be blank at the first cell where I have not entered in a new bill. I have attached an example of what I am trying to do.
I have several competitors balance sheets (around 15), they all have the same structure, what i will like to do is summarize all this data into a pivot table to have a grand total but also be able to filter the data by single competitor.
I have tried to do multiple consolidation ranges, power pivot, pivot but i was unsuccessful, maybe i arranged the data wrong or im not using the right solution. im using excel 2013
I want to write a VBA code, so I can apply dates criterias to my pivot table. Say, I have 1-Dec-2007 in "C2" and 10-Dec-2007 in "C3". Now I want my pivot table to show me the dates between those two dates and the data that goes along with it. I have written this code, but it keep debugging:
Sub FilterDates()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("PnL").Select
Sheets("PnL").PivotTables("PivotTable3").PivotFields("Date") _ .PivotItems("01/01/1950").Visible = True 'to always have 1 populated
I have a set of data with values and dates (call the dates 'raw dates'). I have added 3 columns with formulae in them as follows:
Year =YEAR('raw date') Month =TEXT('raw date',"mmm") Day ='raw date', formatted as "d".
I have a pivot chart with three Axis Fields. In order they are: Year, Month and Day. This is so that the chart itself has three layers of x-axis names (year, month and day) rather than a whole load of dates which looks messy.
I would like to show the values as a running total "in" the raw dates of the data.
When I show the values as "Running Total in" 'raw dates', I get a load of #NAs in the pivot table because the raw dates are not in the Axis Fields. If I select Running totals "in" the Days (which is included in the pivot table setup), I get running totals over each month, starting at zero on the first date in each month. I need to have the running total run over the course of the whole data set, not mini running totals in each month.
When I choose only the 'raw dates' in the axis fields (i.e. taking out Year, Month and Day), running total works fine. The only thing is that I lose the nice looking x-axis. Adding the raw dates to the other 3 Axis Fields also doesn't work - it doesn't even try to give a running total at all, just the original values.
how to achieve a running total without sacrificing the x-axis?
The below code is working for >200702 and removes all years/months prior to this entered value. Unfortunately the code does not work when a user enters <200706, instead the code goes through to the “NonValidCriteria” prompt.
Sub HideByCriteriaYYYYMM() 'Declare variables 'SEE: [url] 'SEE: [url] Dim pt As PivotTable, pi As PivotItem Dim lMonth As Long Dim strCri As String, strCri1 As String, strCri2 As String Dim bHide As Boolean Dim xlCalc As XlCalculation
I have a data table with all my data in it. I want to be able to filter the data, and have a column automatically calculate a running (or aggregate) sum of the filtered (visible) information in a particular column of the table.
If you glance at the attached sample spreadsheet (in 2nd post!), you will quickly see what I mean. I am searching for a formula for column L that will caculate a running sum for column K. In column T, you can see the results that I'm looking to reproduce in column L. Each cell in column T simply adds the K column value for that row to the previous value in column T (the cell above). However -- to my knowledge, and as in this case -- the formula for column T can only be copied down the column AFTER the table has been filtered.
There was an option in excel 2007 in the pivot wizard to use an existing pivot table report as the source for a new pivot. I cannot find this in Excel 2010.
I've attached a sample workbook. Data Table 2 on the Data Tables sheet is what I'm after. Basically I have a formula that sums up quantity 1 (Q1) and quantity 2 (Q2) for all widgets at a site name and month. So for example, go down through column site name and column month and add up all of Q1 for site1 in the month of Jun 2014 (all widgets). This works but it shows duplicate totals which makes sense as there are mutliple widget types at each site. I think the example workbook explains it better. Note the Pivot Table sheet is an example of what I'm showing currently and what I'd like to show. While I understand that depending on how I set up the Pivot Table I can get similar results using either Table 1 or Table 2 but the other thing is that my users like to do some filtering of the data sheet itself without regard to the Pivot Tables.
I am creating a data base to track Planner compensation. Many of our accounts have 2 planners on the same case. I am trying to learn how I can create a single list of all the planners (from "Partner 1" and "Partner 2") headings which will then total their compensation in a Pivot Table weather their name is under the "partner 1" heading or "partner 2" heading. See the attached example.
I am trying to create a pivot table report to find out how much profit each client has made and I need the total profits to be added up for each client so I can see who has made the most/least.
how to remove the percentage of row total in a pivot table. I only want the sum of the row total but the percentage of row column always say 100% and I want it to be removed.
I have a pivot table which I am interested in filtering in several different ways. The table contains a category for AREA on the Y axis and BLOCKS on the X axis. When unfiltered the tables displays AREA 1,2, and 3 and has a full list of parts. I can then filter the table by AREA to look at one area specifically, and when I do the BLOCKS list shrinks to only those which correspond to that specific AREA.
My problem is that I want to be able to reference on another sheet the value that corresponds to AREA 1 Total regardless of whether the table is filtered to only AREA 1 or if it is unfiltered. I cannot just reference the cell because AREA 1 Total is in a different cell when unfiltered then when filtered. Is there any way to do this?
I have attached the file. refer to the scorecard sheet where I have KPL Current Year(P02 Total), I would like this to be, instead of average, a division between the CF Kms Current Year(P02 Total) and Litres Curent Year(P02 Total). Is it possible to change it?
On a pivot table, I want the grand total to be the average. When I code it, the code changes all the values in the column to an average.
if a person's % for April is 95% & the sum of all the people in the table is 1924%. If I change the grand total to average, the person's april % changes to 19% (which is an average instead of a total.
The pivot table has only two columns, the first is the identification number and the second is the count of the identification number. I am trying to get a count of the number of identification numbers, not how many times it was entered in the spreadsheet (some numbers are entered more than once on different days). It currently looks like:
Column A Column B 00000001 1 00000002 1 00000003 2 00000004 1 00000005 3 Grand Total 8
I'm trying to arrive at 5 for the answer, so that each number is only counted once even if used more than once.
I have a problem in creating Pivot Table in the format that I want for the purpose of report, so I'm not even sure if I should use it at all.
In the file attached, I have a sample data source in sheet 'Source'. Basically the data are already in the list format.
For the purpose of reporting, I want to make this data in the format of sheet 'Final Format Wanted'. Note that the report only takes in data from columns D, M, N, O ( Headings highlighted in red).
(1) I understand that I can do something like this with a Pivot Table, and I already did something like it in the sheet 'Pivot'.
The Pivot table works well for Total Exposure (data from column M)The thing is, I want just the Grand Total Figures for column N and O instead of putting it in the data section itself. For better explanation, please take a look at sheet 'Final Format Wanted'. I just want the grand total for these 2 columns because they are less important and I want to be able to squeeze just the relevant figures for the report. Can I do this?
(2) Another way I have thought of is actually using a combination of Vlookup and concatenate function (look at sheet 'vlookup'). The thing is, some names that I used to concatenate might appear twice (look at row 39 and 40 in sheet 'Source' under column L), so if I am to use this, I'll need to find Sub-total first then copy and paste each item again into the format I wanted.
To me, this seems to be a really long way of doing it. Pivot Table is preferable in that it can count the total automatically for me, but I can't get the format I want.
Does anyone have any suggestion what I can do? If I use (1)Pivot table - how can I get just the Grand Total of the other 2 columns? (2)Vlookup - Is there a faster way in getting the subtotal and ultimately get the data in the format I want?
I started a pivot table for our budget and on the left side I have the account names and about 4 columns of applicable account codes to which I turn on and off when needed. On the right side I have all the budget numbers divided by quarter and halfs. On the right side, I can drop any list of numbers and it does the sum but for some reason, when I drop my 4th quarter numbers, it gives me a count and not sum. How do I change it to sum?
Second problem: I have grand totals number going down the columns meaning I have a sum of all my 1st Quarter numbers but I do not have them going across each line on row. How do I add that?
Third problem: I forgot a list of account codes to be put on the left, how can I add it?
- 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 have a pivot table the has a listing of potential customers and I have included meeting dates in this table. The problem that I have is that the Grand total adds up all the dates and I have a total that doesn't make sense.
I want to hide the total for the 'Date Meeting Setup' column and keep it for the others. Can this be done??
Regarding the attached pivot table screen shot, I would like to be able to add total revenue and cost for each product and overall to this pivot table. IOW, instead of just showing the net amount of 3,200 for all blenders, I would like it to show Revenue of 12,500, Cost of (9,300), and the net amount of 3,200 for all blenders (i.e., for Boise and Chicago combined), in addition to the totals for each of the two plants. Also would like to see total revenue, cost, and net for all products and plants combined at the bottom. Can this be done?
I have a column in my pivot table with values that are formatted as percents. I am trying to make the grand total reflect the average of all values in the column, but it keeps showing a sum of all values.
Example: the values in the % column are 90%, 100%, and 110%. I want it to show 100% (the average), but it is showing 300% (the sum)
