    Super simple and easy to follow through. Thanks man! Can we also sort the pivot table based on month of a date? I found it to be considering only ascending and descending.

    If the header labels of your pivot table data range are in row 3 and not row 1 AND your data range is A1:N (so you can capture new data), what do you reference as the header name in your calculated field? Example: you use =Sales/COGS and it works perfectly because your header names are in row 1. If your header labels were in row 3 of the data range, what would you reference in your formula? Thanks!

    I'm trying to copy and paste a pivot table from the Tab (sheet) it was created on into my dashboard tab within the same workbook. When I copy and paste the pivot table my MAXIFS function in the pivot table calculated field stops working and the data ranges that I have referenced turn into #REF symbols. Any idea why this is occurring? The MAXIFS formula in the calculated field works fine as long as the pivot table remains on its original Tab. Thanks!

    I've created a calculated field in my pivot table and called it value_1. Does anyone know if I can reference value_1 in a subsequent calculated field?

    Loved the vlookup! How will a sleep now! 😅
    I’m also trying to find a way to build a table with change between two values per row/column. Like compare 2019 vs 2020 in % , anyone knows if this possible with calculated fields or pivot tables?

    Is it possible to use within "Custom Fields" formulas written with App Script (Script Editor)?
    My situation is that I am looking for some text processing functions and looks like the only way to bring in text processing/analysis functions into pivot tables is to use App Script for that...; My use case is pretty specific: instead of processing sales data which is mostly numeric, I need to process dataset which is result of many people filling out forms).

    I think after update 2018 in 13:28, there is a Default name appeared in Values(Sales) small Window, if You click it there are grand totals, row totals and column totals.

    Very informative video, thanks! Around minute 13 when you create a percentage of total sales, you can (now) just do it as a "percentage of column/row." May not have been an option when you posted this years ago! hehehe
    My question is I'm trying to do an AVERAGEIF function using and the criteria is a binary 1 or 0 (so let's say average sales for a single state, IL in reference to your example), I have =AVERAGEIF('column_A_Title',"=1",'Column_B_Title') and I get NA as an error.. any thoughts?

    • @ExcelGoogleSheets
      @ExcelGoogleSheets  Před 3 lety

      It's possible that AVERAGEIF requires ranges to be actual ranges from the spreadsheet.

  • @KirilIliev_Utube
    @KirilIliev_Utube Před 2 lety

    Maybe a custom function in Apps Script can do the job to get the total from the pivot. - No it does not work. But a dirty workaround is to place a ref somewhere else and refer to it in the formula. But I guess you've already did that. Commented too soon Great videos by the way.

    I don't understand your "revenue per state". 5:35 The 7 different states in Midwestern should each have a different revenue, not a single figure.
