In this Intermediate Microsoft Excel tutorial, I will show you how to use Power Pivot in Microsoft Excel. In this tutorial, we'll cover the basics of Power Setting up Our Data for Finding Unique Values in a Pivot Table. Our table consists of 3 columns: “Month” (column A), “Salesman” (column B) and “Sales” (column C). In the Pivot table, we want to get the count of unique Salesmen per Month. Figure 2. Data that we will use for the Pivot table creation 1/ Nowhere I used Power Pivot but Power Query. 2/ Look at sheet Inputs in the file I shared. I made a copy/paste of the relevant columns and rows (from your manual inputs in sheet Working Tab) and formatted the copied data as a Table that I named Inputs. 3/ I "loaded" the existing table RawData in Power Query and did the same with the newly These are the monthly salaries of the employees (obtained using the pivot table): Each cell will then be used as the Lookup value for the vlookup or index and match functions. The lookup value is to be looked up in column A and column B of the table below and if it is matched (within the range), it will return the corresponding value under Click inside the PivotTable. Go to PivotTable Analyze -> Change Data Source -> Change Data Source. (In Excel 2010 and earlier, you need to go to PivotTable Tools -> Options -> Change Data Source -> Change Data Source.) Update the data source range in the dialog box that will appear with the current range highlighted. To add a Slicer, click inside the PivotTable, and choose PivotTable Tools > Options > Insert Slicer. Click the checkbox for each Slicer to add to the worksheet, and click OK. In my case, I added rBsLQnJ. Download or import the data that you want to use. In the pivot_table function, specify the DataFrame you are summarizing, along with the names for the indexes, columns and values. Specify the type of calculation you want to use, such as the mean. Use multiple indexes and column-level grouping to create a more powerful summary of the data. Step 8: Format PivotTable. Choose a plain style from the gallery on the Design tab or create your own with no formatting, as I’ve done for this example. Then add cell borders for the sub-total and total rows: Make sure ‘Preserve cell formatting on update’ is on by right clicking the PivotTable > PivotTable Options > Layout & Format tab Step 3: Add your desired row and value data. Under the Pivot table editor, select Rows and add the data. In this case, click Location. Next, go to Values, click Add, then Location. Click Add under Values again and select Sales. This is what your pivot table should look like after going through all the steps. Insert a new Excel worksheet, and name it Sports. Browse to the folder that contains the downloaded sample data files, and open OlympicSports.xlsx. Select and copy the data in Sheet1. If you select a cell with data, such as cell A1, you can press Ctrl + A to select all adjacent data. Go to Insert Tab → Charts → Pivot Chart and select the chart which you want to use. Click OK. It will insert a new pivot chart in the same worksheet where you have your pivot table. And, it will use pivot table rows as the axis and columns as the legend in the pivot chart.
