Hi Vin
You can actually use my pivot table but if you want to follow the steps to create your own you need to do the following:
- Select any cell in your pivot table
- This will display the PIVOT TABLE TOOLS at the top right hand of the ribbon
- Select the DESIGN option
- On the far left select the Report Layout drop down and then choose Show in Tabular Format
- Also on far left sect the Subtotals drop down and then choose Do Not Show Subtotals
- The Sum of Effort in Hours columns defaults to decimal; you need to change the format to HH:MM; Place cursor on heading cell, right click mouse and select Value Field Setting; This opens a new window so select Number Format , then choose Custom; you can scroll down the values until you find hh:mm or you can type hh:mm if you can't find it in your list.
I hope you can follow these steps!
regards,
Peter

Thanks for your reply. I have tried to replicate your work but i could not quite make the same adjustments. Not sure what I am doing incorrectly.
Thanks again for your time and your patience.
