I've been tasked to fix a pivot table in a spreadsheet that was migrated from Google Sheets to SharePoint.
All the tabs and formulas are working but a pivot was totally lost.
I've found that Excel in SharePoint works significantly different than Excel2016, and when exported from SharePoint some of the formulas 'break'.
My main question is can SharePoint Excel create a new source (Excel SQL, vba, whatever) to use for a pivot?
The source for the pivot is in an unusual format:
I'd like to use Date / Issue / Activity / Exceptions as columns for the pivot with the dates (across the top) to be used as rows.
Thank you in advance for any help.
You need to unpivot your data.
Got to insert>table to make your data a table.
Then go to data> from table.
Now select the columns that aren't dates using shift, then right click>unpivot other columns.

I have an Excel-workbook with 12 sheets, all sheets contain between 700.000 and 1.000.000 rows. All sheets have identical column-headings.
I would like to make one pivottable with Powerpivot from those 12 sheets with data.
I have added all sheets to the datamodel, after that I try to make a pivottable by clicking Powerpivot > Home > Pivottable.
Although when I click a certain columnname to use as a pivot table field, my tables are still separated in the pivot table output.
Is there an option so that Powerpivot sees all 12 sheets as one table?
thank you!

In your case I would recommend to use Power Query for merging data from all list into one table, because it more manageable and flexible way.

I've been using Excel a lot lately and I'm not quite familiar with Pivot table. Is it possible for me to combine 2 workbooks into 1 pivot table? The first workbook is about the days of leave of the employee and the second one is about the days that the employee is present. They have similar fields which is the internal ID. I was wondering if there's a way to combine the two workbook to make it 1 pivot table only. I tried the connection in excel that helps connecting my two workbooks but that will make 2 pivot tables. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!
You can use the free add-in Power Query for Excel 2010 and 2013, or the built-in Get & Transform in Excel 2016 to combine data from different workbooks.
Create a query into the first workbook table and save it as a connection only. Then create a query into the second workbook table. Make sure the columns have identical names and are of the same data type. Then click append to combine with the first query, load to the workbook and create a pivot table as usual.
I have a pivot table, whos source is a powerpivot model in the excel 2010 document.
I have two columns in the filter section of the pivot table. I need to set their values via VBA.
I have had a lot of trouble doing this. Id appreciate any help!
On excel 2007, in one sheet i have 2 pivot tables created by the first image table below
and i have create two pivot tables in the same worksheet as you can see in the second image below, and i have choose all stores, now i know i can use option Show Report Filtered pages with the field stores if i have one pivot table, but can i do the same with 2 pivot tables simultaneously?
For example to choose both pivot tables and create with Show Report Filtered pages new sheets like in the third image but with both tables in it?
If there is a way with formula,functions any solution not with VBA or macro.
If you upgrade to excel 2010, you'll be able to use Slicers for that purpose. In Excel 2007, you will have to use macros to achieve a similar effect.
I have used Power Pivot to create some calculated fields from a table of data.
Then I use the modified table, with the calculated fields to create some pivot charts back on the excel workbook.
In the same way I linked the original dataset (excel table) to Power Pivot, I would like to link the table in powerpivot with the calculated fields back to excel. Is this possible?
yoshiserry, the best way to share PowerPivot stuff is PowerView (Excel 2013). If you want to share just the table, regular Excel file should be fine -- people even without PowerPivot installed will be able to work with it (with some limitations).
