How to create Slicers which are the New Visual way to Filter a Pivot Table

Microsoft Excel can be used to carry out a number of functions such as sorting, filtering, and subtotal to manage large lists of data. Yet, its MS Excel PivotTable is a very useful feature when it comes to analyzing all that data and doing it quickly. Its use is all the more pronounced when the user is required to quickly create a compact summary report (based on lots of data) without having to write complex formulas or rely on lengthy techniques.

Being very versatile, MS Excel PivotTable is often considered Excel’s best analytical tool because it complements speed with amazing flexibility and dynamism, by which the data interrelationships that are being viewed can be changed. It is so practical that its features can be put to practical use by actually getting down to work on it, even if a user doesn’t go through the instructions on the printed page, which is a visually-oriented feature based on displaying fields in different locations. With MS Excel PivotTable, it is possible to create a complete summary report with heaps of data in very little time without having to write complex formulas and rely on obscure techniques.

o  How to perform ad-hoc grouping of information

o  How to use Slicers instead of filters to identify which field elements are displayed

o  How to drill down to see the details behind the summary

o  How to categorize date/time data in multiple levels

o  How to create a Pivot Chart that is in sync with a PivotTable

o  How to add calculated fields to perform additional analysis

o  How to hide/reveal detail/summary information with a simple click

o  How to deal with dynamic source data and the “refresh” concept

o  How to create a PivotTable based on data from multiple worksheets.

All these aspects will be covered in detail. Dennis will also cover the following areas at this session on MS Excel PivotTable:

o  Pre-requisites for source data – preparing data so that it can be analyzed by PivotTables

o  Creating a PivotTable with a minimum number of steps, including the Recommended PivotTables option
