Hello, My Excel pivot table returns all rows that should be returned according to filters applied directly to column filters in the pivot table itself, or via some Slicers that I've created off of this pivot table. For 2 particular Business Units, there is one row (again, that is properly returned as a row in the filtered pivot table - i.e., no 'missing' records) that shows values in the first 4 columns of the pivot table, but does not display the values in the subsequent 9 columns, despite the fact that the data is fully populated in the Source data. The one source field I've added to the 'Values' section of the pivot table (Report Count) does display values as expected. Troubleshooting tried so far: I've ensured that my Named Range data source is properly capturing the entire source dataset - i.e., no dataset rows or columns left off I've refreshed my pivot table numerous times after changing filters directly in the pivot table itself, as well as changing the filters in Slicers built off of that pivot table. In the Pivot Table Options, on the 'Data' tab: the 'Number of items to retain per field' is set to 'None'. And the 'Save source data with file' check box is not checked off. I've deleted/re-added the source data for the problematic, 'invisible' pivot table columns (not showing the data as expected) and refreshed the pivot table, but that did not correct the issue. I inserted a blank row adjacent to 1 of the 2 problematic records in the source data and copied the data from the problematic record into it, and deleted the original record and refreshed my pivot table, which also did not remediate the problem. I've also built another pivot table in the same workbook on a different Excel worksheet (using the same Named Range data source) and added all the same fields for one of the problematic records and they are all displaying normally. The only error message of any kind that is generated is when I go to one of the problematic records in the pivot table itself, select one of the cells in that row that is displaying a blank and then try to click on the Formula bar - the error message is, 'We can't change this part of the pivot table'. But, I believe this is a normal message if Excel senses that you're trying to update data in a pivot table. There are no error other messages or difficulty refreshing to report. Other relevant points: All told, I have 239 total rows in my source data, and all rows appear normally in the pivot table with the exception of these 2 problem records. There have been no other performance/display issues of concern outside of this one. This Excel workbook is mainly utilized on SharePoint by multiple Users, but for more complex updates/troubleshooting, I am easily able to bring it down to work in Excel Desktop as needed - and this problematic display with these 2 records is present regardless of whether I'm working with the file on SharePoint or with Desktop Excel. I can't think of what else to try at the moment - I've never seen anything like this in my 25+ years of working with Excel. I hope I'm missing something simple - any troubleshooting suggestions are greatly appreciated!36Views0likes1CommentExcel formulas starting to include current sheet name
Hi I recently noticed that formulas in excel starting to automatically include the "current" sheet name after leaving and coming back to the sheet (example below). I don't remember this used to be the case but I could be wrong. Does anyone have a similar experience or can confirm if this is correct? Is there a setting somewhere I can turn this on and off? Example: I have 2 tables (1 per sheet). After clicking on Sheet2 to select the cell I want to sum, coming back to Sheet1 and referencing any cells will include "Sheet1!" in my formula. I believe previously the formula omits "Sheet1!". Both ways are useful in different scenarios but wondering if I have missed a trick to "turn on and off" how it behaves. Thanks!155Views0likes7CommentsComplex formulae with data model
Over the years, I have developed a significant excel data sheet which has gotten slower and slower with time. I have discovered the idea of excel's data model this week and have learnt how to import the data I need from its source CSV to the data model and I now have a power pivot which looks like what I originally had in excel. What I would like to do next, is to replicate some of the formulae I had in excel to calculate if something should be counted or not. I would not want the red one to be counted as this row would have been counted in the previous month. In excel I was using the following formula- =IF(COUNTIF(B5:M4,">0"),SUM(Patient!B5:M5*0),Patient!N5) is there a way of achieving this with the data model or would I have to hardcode this into another sheet? I was trying to avoid doing this to minimise the number of formulae... Many thanks for your help...Solved181Views0likes7Commentsunpivot data and handle merged cells without using Power Query (Unpivot_Toolkit)
Hey, guys!! I’ve been working on a set of functional Excel Lambdas to solve a common headache: transforming "Wide" human-readable data into "Long" database formats without having to open Power Query every time. =UNPIVOT_PLUS(table, [no_of_cols], [no_of_headers], [attribute_names], [value_name], [remove_errors], [remove_blanks],[pad_blanks_with],[pad_errors_with]) Don’t worry about the full list, most use cases only require 5 arguments. I've included a table of default values at the end. Merged Cell Support: Automatically handles fill-down/fill-right logic for merged headers/columns. Bonus Helper: SPLIT_INJECT =SPLIT_INJECT(array, target_indices, delimiter, [ignore_empty], [match_mode], [pad_with]) It targets specific columns, splits them by a delimiter (like TEXTSPLIT), and expands the entire table horizontally while keeping all other columns perfectly stable. Optional arguments match TEXTSPLIT defaults. Feel free to tear this apart or adapt it for your own edge cases. I’d love to hear how you end up using it! You can grab both functions from my GitHub Gist https://gist.github.com/Medohh2120/f8553c149684e39bb499249e39f01017 File with use cases https://1drv.ms/x/c/6c310c8fd1669a94/IQCscpo3yh7jR5XdGZe2AQGyAf4-vCd8K6BvLZQgrP2V8Oo?e=gPdbOd Argument Description Default Behavior table The array or range of data to unpivot. Required argument (no default) [no_of_cols] Fixed left columns to keep as identifiers. 1 [no_of_headers] Top rows used as headers, handling merged cells. 1 [attribute_names] Header name for the unpivoted attributes . "Attribute" [value_name] Header name for the unpivoted values. "Value" [remove_errors] Excludes grid rows with formula errors. FALSE [remove_blanks] Removes grid empty cells and empty strings. TRUE [pad_blanks_with] Value to substitute for empty cells. Leaves cell blank [pad_errors_with] Value to substitute for errors.

Dear all, I am currently experiencing the following problem in Excel 365 version 2308 with pivot tables (on MSAS connections): Excel always crashes if I'm refreshing data for all connections for more pivot tables at once - especially when I have 2 pivot tables with the same connection on 1 sheet . This happens always :o(. Excel will NOT crash under any of the following situation, 1. I have to change some filter on each! pivot table (without refreshing); 2. After that I can refresh pivot tables. I must do the same after opening Excel file next time. I have tested it on multiple machines and the symptoms are consistent over all the machines with Excel 365 version 2307&higher. Stable workarround is NEXT: 1. I must have PC with lower version of Excel (I have old notebook with Excel 365 version 1808 at home). 2. Change connections to local PC with local MSAS (I have no connection to original MSAS from local PC). 3. Open file & refresh all connections. 4. Save & copy to PC with Excel 365 version 2308 5. Open file & change connections to original MSAS 6. After that refresh works fine. Now this file will work in Excel 365 version 2308. Can you kindly advise if anything can be done to this issue? - I have many Excel files on version 2308. Thank you in advance.12KViews0likes6CommentsCorrelation Study with Filters
