Am converting an old Excel 2003 workbook to 2013. It has a pivottable which connects to an SQL Server table using OLAP query, and I've had to completely redo the PivotTable using an ODBC DSN to the data source, because the OLAP thing isn't working in 2013 for some reason, possible a Citrix issue.
I've converted the workbook to 2013 format and created a new pivot table from the same data source, but cannot get it to look right.
See the table created in 2003 versus 2013 in the link below
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MPOqE4Mj68flBz63yI7vbL6gXmMP1_dC7DPQ0oxS2Ao/edit?usp=sharing
The fields that are designated as 'rows' are appearing 'nested' in the 2013 table, whereas they appear as multiple columns in 2003. Also, you can filter on Doc Type in the 2003 table but not the 2013
The date field has been put as the column, and I've kind of worked out how to get it to split it by date (with some trial and error), but notice how in 2003 it shows the date of the month differently (i.e. the day's number only, not the day + the month, e.g. 1 instead of 1-Apr.).
Can anyone help?
In Excel 2013, the default layout of PivotTable is "Compact Form" (which you called "nested"). The layout in 2003 is Tabular Form and it is still available in 2013.
Click on the PivotTable
Go to PivotTable Tools (a tab on the top)
Design>Report Layout
Show in Tabular Form
Once you have change it into Tabular Form, "Doc Type" should display as an individual column and you can filter it.
*Order of rows and columns can be adjusted by dragging.
The format of data field can be modified in Field Settings. Right click on the desired cell, and look for "Value Field Setting".

When connecting to AnalysisService / Cube with Excel, I have a PivotTable in a Excel Tab.
Here it is.
And the PivotTable settings is in the Sheet1
THEN I do double-click in the corresponding cell where excel tells me "DOUBLE CLICK"
What I am trying to say is that I can perform many Pivot Table and filters, and excel creates, for every settings, a NEW TAB after I perform also the Double-click.
Ok.
But then, how I recall again the original settings for each Excel TAB ?
What is the way to show the originals parameters for every Tab, in Excel, that were used to compute and search or filter some results ?
Maybe there is not a way.

The results in a Excel TAB (Just an example) after doing the double-click to compute the fields putted in the PivotTable
The question is. How, from the results, I can return back to the original settings that originated the table data ? If I don't remember the original parameters that I've put, how I see them again, FOR EVERY TAB ?
If it's not clear, please let me know in the comments
Thanks !
once the query is submitted, there's noway to see the original filter.

I am unable to group fields in pivot table of Excel file.
Graffiti table is linked with Calendar table via Date (in PowerPivot > Data Model), so why is there difficulty in grouping the following.
However if I unlink the tables (which is what I DO NOT want to do), then it works
In his online course, Building BI with Pivot Tables, Ken Puls, Microsoft Excel MVP explains that if you build your pivot table from the data model, grouping won't work. He also explains that the only exception to this is that for Excel 2016 they fixed the ability to group dates. He says other grouping still doesn't work in Excel 2016. If you make your Pivot Table from your "Table1" in your "DSNY_Graffiti_Information" tab in your Workbook instead of from the Power Pivot data model, you can group:
For the Pivot Table above, I just clicked in "Table1" in your "DSNY_Graffiti_Information" tab, then used Insert -> Pivot Table, and I used your "RESOLUTION_ACTION" column for both the "Rows" and "Values". It defaulted the values to count (i.e., "Count of RESOLUTION_ACTION").
Then I selected all of the "10-..." entries in the Pivot Table, right-clicked, and clicked "Group".
I hope this helps some.
I have a pivot table on excel which uses SSAS Cube. I have selected some report filter as well as some row labels.Later I changed the attribute relationships in the dimension.
I didn't change the names of the attributes of the dimension.
But now when I refresh my excel, all the report filters disappear.
As this excel is on the client site it would create a problem as they do not want to select the filters again.
The dimension still can be seen in the pivot table and has to be selected again.
Can anyone suggest what can be done?
Thanks,

Am just playing around with PowerPivot in Office 2013.
When i create model in PowerPivot it looks as below (with three tables)
and when i try to analyze the data in PivotTable it comes up as
it says Table1, Table2 instead Reseller Details, Calendar.
This works fine in office 2010 powerpivot it picks right table names.
Any clues?
Not sure why they changed it but I can't imagine it was on purpose.
If you are dead set on showing the model table name in the field list (and why wouldn't you be) then you need to change the name of the excel table itself as well which you can do in the 'Design' tab which appears when you are in the table itself.
Not ideal but at least there is a work around.

Before I give a description of the problem, here is the list of technologies I am using - Excel 2010, PowerPivot Add-in, Win 7, Macros - VBA
I have created charts using multiple data sources (via PowerPivot). PowerPivot has provided Slicers and I want to print various states of the chart to separate PDFs for each value of the Slicer. I have already written the code that does the printing job. I need help with a snippet of code to loop through the list of Slicers and select them in such a way that the state of the chart changes everytime.
Through my research I found out that there is a property named SlicerItem.Selected which can be set to TRUE or FALSE to select a particular item in the Slicer. But apparently we can Set this property for OLAP pivot table/chart.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Rushabh.
If you convert your slicer to a report filter, then you can utilize Excel's builtin-feature of "show report filter pages"
Go to PowerPivot ribbon, option tab, Options. You'll see the item show report filter pages. It will create multiple worhsheets for each report filter selection.
