A simple way to get started:
- Enter a few sample rows of data in your sheet
- Click in any cell where you have entered data
- Click Insert, PivotTable
- Click OK
- Go to the new sheet with the Pivot Table
- Tick the boxes by Part #, Material Description, and the Qty fields
This should give you an idea. You can format to make it look better.
One think I always do is right-click anywhere in the Pivot Table, choose PivotTable Options, Click the Display tab, and tick the box by Classic PivotTable layout. I find it much easier to look at.
