For Insider, When Will Python in Excel & New GROUPBY & PIVOTBY Functions Appear?
My latest build version (downloaded and installed this week) is: Microsoft® Excel® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2311 Build 16.0.17029.20028) 64-bit Why have I not yet gained access to eit...
Steve1330 , you are welcome.
As a comment, Beta is stable enough, serious issues here are very seldom. The main problem is compatibility if you share files with someone else or work in different environments.
Another two weeks go by, and still Microsoft is dragging its feet rolling out the new GROUPBY & PIVOTBY functions to those of us Insiders with Current Channel (Preview). WTF is taking you so long? On top of that, two of your last three Office 365 updates were broken for a day or two before finally downloading after Users having to take steps never before required. 😡
In many cases two weeks is quite fast even for the covering of 100% on Beta channel. The way from Beta to Current (Preview) could take months.

Another six weeks goes by, now nearly 4 1/2 months since their introduction 11/14/23, and still, I and many other MS 365 Insider (Preview) subscribers are not yet seeing the new GROUPBY & PIVOTBY functions. Again MS, WTF is taking you so long to roll these out? (My latest updated version: Microsoft® Excel® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2403 Build 16.0.17425.20124) 64-bit).
SteveConcrete build doesn't matter. Are you on Beta or on Current (Preview) channel? If the first it shall work.

It's now been over six months since Excel introduced the GROUPBY & PIVOTBY functions 11/14/23, and many of us in the MS 365 Insider (Preview) subscribers have STILL not yet seen them available to us. Anyone doing any real work over there at Microsoft?
