I have a table and I want to show only a part of that data as a chart.
This is my data
pets age
coco 3
rover 3
clifford 8
rugrat 7
doug 1
I want to make a chart that shows pets on the x-axis and age on the y-axis.
Importantly, I want to show data for pets that are at least four years old (clifford and rugrat).
In my use case, I cannot delete those rows from my table because it would adversely affect other tables in my worksheet. I would also rather avoid pivot tables. My band-aid fix is to select the data and manually select, in this example, clifford and rugrat.
You mentioned you prefer to avoid pivot tables. This solution utilizes pivot charts, NOT pivot tables.
Click anywhere in the table and go to insert->pivot chart
(Optional) In the Create PivotChart menu, select the check box to Add this data to the Data Model. This will prevent a Pivot Table from being created in the workbook.
Drag Age into the values section and Pets into the Axis (Categories) section.
Click the dropdown button on the Pets field and add a value filter. In this case you want the sum of age to be greater than 4. (Alternatively, you can use the Pets button on the pivot chart.)
Below is the final product. You may wish to adjust the y-axis, add titles, etc. from here.
In Case you have Office 365, Try this:
Let assume that the following:
"pets" is on column A
"age" is on column B
You are Working in "Sheet5"
File Name is Book2
From the name Manager, create a named range called "Titles" and with value as:
=FILTER(INDIRECT("Sheet5!$A$2:"&"$A$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$A:$A)),INDIRECT("Sheet5!$B$2:"&"$B$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$B:$B))>4)
From the name Manager, create another named range called "Values" and with value as:
=FILTER(INDIRECT("Sheet5!$B$2:"&"$B$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$B:$B)),INDIRECT("Sheet5!$B$2:"&"$B$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$B:$B))>4)
For Chart do the below:
Insert the chart type you need not based on the data in Column A & B and then
Click on the chart
From the Chart Design Tab click on "Select Data"
Under "Legend Entries (Series)" click "Add"
In The "Series Value" Box type Book2!Values (Values is the named range created before)
Under "Horizontal (Category) Axis Labels" click "Edit"
In The "Axis label range" Box type Book2!Titles (Titles is the named range created before)

I'd like to show in the chart below as title the selection from the slicer. I see two possbile options:
Select the unique row from the table below where the data is from. I've tried Unique function, but it gives me all the unique items from the table, rather than only the selected item
Possible vba code to save the value from the slicer and save in a speficic cell?
Im working with a table similar to this one:
I want to create a pivot table that organizes the data by the "GRUPO" column, indicating the reason for leaving a company.
For example, in the table above, DK would have to have SALARIO = 2 (there are 2 people in group DK who between RAZÓN 1 and RAZÓN 2 have checked SALARIO).
I manage to do something like this:
But is not working correctly, as you see, i only want the final result for each RAZÓN...
Any help? Thanks!
Well, there might be other ways to accomplish this task, however this is what i usually do, since i found it easy one for me, so you can follow the steps and refer image as well,
1.) Select any cell within the table i.e. your ORIGINAL DATA SOURCE,
2.) Now from Data Tab --> Goto --> Get & Transform Data Group --> From there click --> From Table/Range,
3.) On selecting the one i have mentioned above, shall open the Power Query Editor,
4.) From Query Settings Panel, under PROPERTIES change the name to Grupotbl
5.) Now select any column and press CTRL A to select the whole table to change the data type, from TRANSFORM TAB --> Under Any Column Group --> Click Detect Data Type , this shall add one step in the APPLIED STEPS as Changed Type,
6.) Next select the first three columns and right click & select --> Unpivot Other Columns, eventually adding one steps under APPLIED STEPS as Unpivoted Other Columns
7.) Now rename the column Value as Razon
8.) Press CTRL and select the columns other than column named Attribute , right click Remove Other Columns,
9.) From HOME TAB under Close click the dropdown and click Close & Load To,
10.) On doing above, you shall get this and click Only Create Connection and check the Add this data to the Data Model --> Press Ok,
11.) From Insert Tab --> Pivot Table --> From Data Model --> You can either choose New Worksheet or Existing Worksheet, which ever suits you best, for this example i have selected existing worksheet cell A9
However you can also right click on the QUERIES & CONNECTIONS and click load to Pivot Table Report and Press Ok.
12.) So you see the Pivot Table layout has been created and you can also find the Pivot Table Fields Panel on the right side of your worksheet, From Fields panel you will find all the tables has been listed, select the Grupo Table --> Drag the Grupo Field in the Rows Areas while the Razon will be in the Values area respectively, you can change the layout design from design table, as well as from Report Layout change it to Show in Tabular Form.
13.) In this manner you can Transform your data to Summarize a Pivot Table!
I have this information from which I am generating a graph, but I would like to add a subclassification.
I currently have the table and graph as follows:
I would like to know if there is any way to add a sub-classification so that
something like this is left, taking the data from column A:
Thanks for your support....
Yes, you can use "Pivot Table" & "Pivot Chart".
Go to "Insert" tab and click "Pivot Table". Select your data range and the position for your table. Arrange fields as appears on screenshot attached. After that, on the same "Insert" tab click "Pivot Chart" and configure it's style to match your requirements.
This can be done without a pivot table. Remove the duplicates in column A, then edit the chart source, click the Edit button for the Horizontal Axis Labels and select A2:B7.
Or, if you want to use a pivot chart, then pull both estado and nombre into the row area of the pivot panel.
I have a pivot table which ideally I would like to exclude any row labels that have empty values. The pivot table can be seen below:
As can be seen in the image, there is no values for the row label Type 2.
For some reason the option to display these items is checked and grayed out in the pivot table options under the display tab as can be seen here:
I found a number of resources online that said to check the "show items with no data" field under the Layout & print tab in field settings, but still to no avail.
Basically I want to have the above pivot table to display Type 1 and Type 3 values but not Type 2 as it has no values.
I am using Excel 2010.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated!
I have seen a article on the net with below address
http://www.contextures.com/xlPivot14.html
For continous running total in a pivot table.
but in this article it removes "year" and "month" field for doing this job. But i would like to work with new feature like time line, so when according to this article i removed "date" field i can not work with "time line" , please help how i can solve this problem
The example from your link and the timeline functionality work together just fine. You do not remove the date field
Example
Below is a detailed example of building the Pivot Table and using the Time Line feature, Using Excel 2016. It should be the same in 2013, and possibly 2010. This example follows the example in your link closely, but adds the timeline at the end.
1) Raw data. Below is a snippet of the raw data used to build the table. It shows 2 years of daily data of orders made by a handful of customers.
2) Insert a Pivot Table to a new worksheet, using the Raw Data from Step 1.
3) From the Analyze Ribbon, choose PivotTable -> Options. On the Display tab of the PivotTable Options dialog box, check the box for Classic PivotTable Layout.
4) Drag the Date field to the Rows area. Three fields appear - Year, Quarter, Date. Remove the Date and Quarter fields. Select the Year field and choose Field Settings. On the Layout & Print tab of the Field Settings dialog box, choose Show item labels in outline form.
5) Drag the Customer field to the Rows area.
6) Drag the Date field to the Columns area.
7) Drag the Orders field to the Values area. Select the Orders field and choose Value Field Settings. On the Show Values As tab of the Value Field Settings dialog box, choose Show Values as Running Total In, and Choose Base Field: Date.
8) On the Design ribbon, choose Grand Totals -> On for Columns Only. Choose PivotTable Style Light 14. The Pivot table now looks like the following ...
9) From the Analyze Ribbon, choose Insert Timeline. On the Insert Timelines dialog box, select Date.
10) In the Date Timeline, change the display to show Quarters. Select the third quarter 2015. The PivotTable now looks like the following ...
11) The numbers are different than the table shown in Step 8, because now it is showing a running total for the 3rd quarter of 2015, instead of a running total for the year.
