Ugh. As you can see, my pivot table has a problem - I probably don't understand pivot tables very well in that case.
I want the pivot table to state "Months" in the first column and not "Row Labels".
Also, I'd like to have a horizontal line appear at an exact percentage in my chart. How would I do that?
Please help.

I'm struggling to understand how to create a pivot table from raw data i have.
The reason i need to do this is so i can use the column names as slicer and further create filterable pie chart, but with the current data set i have no idea how to create pivot table.
Expected result:
Slicer for the regions and pie chart for the product groups, so when i press a region i get the revenue for the regions in the pie chart.
I hope my explanation is understandable.
So, i got to the conclusion that i have to restructure my data.
What i did was calculate for each product group its revenue per region.
It should look like this:
Afterwards it was easy to make the pivot table and pie chart from the pivot table, with slicer for regions.
I have made a Gantt chart in excel that is attached to a pivot table. It has about 100 lines and when I filter the pivot table the Gant chart that depends on the pivot table has the same amount of rows. I would like to know how I can hide these rows that are hanging down.
I used conditional formatting to hide the cells.
I'm having problems with my pivot table, the data is created from Power Pivot.
I filtered my main field by a specific Name, and lose the + expand field and all of the rows not in my filter become hidden (please see example screenshot).
I tested created a regular pivot table and this error doesn't show up.
Please advise, thanks!
The blue row heading indicates that the filtering is not done with the pivot table tools. If you filter the pivot table headings, you can still expand and collapse the pivot rows and the row headings stay black. If, however, you have a spreadsheet filter outside of the pivot table, that filter will turn filtered row headings blue and may hide the rows into which the pivot table expands.
I am primarly a programmer and dont work often with Excel, but no I have to build a Report. I guess this is a very easy Problem or not possible at all, but i could find nothing by myself
I made a Pivotreport, and now I want to move the Overall-Sum to the front of the Report, so that if somebody reads it, he sees the overallnumbers first.
I only have a german Excel, so I dont know the english names here, I hope the screenshot makes it clear:
This is possible to do using Slicers, running two pivot tables, and hiding unnecessary columns.
I built a sample table to work with that can be applied to your data:
Select your pivot table to open the Pivottable Tools menu, then click on "Insert Slicer":
Select the fields you would like to be able to filter:
Copy and paste your entire pivot table into a new sheet. Ensure it remains a pivot table when you paste it.
In the newly copied pivot table, remove all columns so that you have just Row Labels and Grand Totals remaining:
Return to the original pivot table and insert three columns to the left of the pivot table:
Navigate back to the copy of your pivot table and copy this trimmed down pivot table:
Return to the original pivot table and paste it into the range to the left of the pivot table (leaving a blank column in between):
Hide the Row Labels on the pivot table on the right side, shrink the blank column between the two pivot tables, and rearrange your slicers:
You now have the Grand Total at the beginning of the pivot table and it can be filtered via the slicers.
I know this is something very simple, but I can't remember how I completed this the last time. I have a pivot table and an associated pivot chart. The table/chart has an axis field that counts the number of entries from a certain column. I'd like to filter out single entries so they're not displayed in my pivot chart. I'm able to add a filter to the pivot table and only have it show values that are greater than 1, but these changes aren't reflected in the chart. Can anyone help me out? I know this is a quick fix, but for some reason can't figure it out. Thanks.
