    I think everyone will agree with me that we need more videos on pivot table to familiarize ourselves as well get to see other options in Google sheets.
    Please like if you agree...

    Question: on google sheets, once I set up my pivot table, and go back to my main sheet & update it with new values, will my pivot table update accordingly?

    • @Simpletivity
      @Simpletivity  Před 3 lety +3

      Great question. Yes, a pivot table is dynamic. So any changes you make within the selected area will be reflected in the table.

  • @Nevir202
    @Nevir202 Před 3 lety

    It's not directly related, but I have a question I'd hoped I might be able to use a pivot table to solve. Unfortunately it looks like not.
    I have a bunch of paired columns in my data and I want to SUMIF all of them simultaneously.
    Using example date, I wrote a formula to do what I want, but it's already bulky when only including three of the pairs then there are like 20:
    I even managed to make an array that can merge the data into two columns and then allow me to run a regular SUMIF, but then I need to have that data present somewhere in my sheet
    So is there a way to do this within an ARRAYFORMULA or some other function to keep things looking clean and keep the formula from being half a page long?

    @ShowBizJunkie Před 11 měsíci +4

    You did not start with a question. What is it you are trying to achieve? Your tutorial would be much more understandable if you give the context. In your example, the rows section is about "what you want to measure". The column specifies "whether you want to measure it across the nation, across the state or across the globe like total sales per region", the values measures the actual unknown like avg(sales), sum(sales) you pick the data you want to apply aggregate functions to.
