    Re: Needed to group Numbers in Pivot Table

    Hi nadarajan,

    I have checked and found that source data is not the same in both the scenarios. .for example you have used "THREEGDUMMY 451379470-9489" in column J but that is no where available for pivot table.

    Re: Needed to group Numbers in Pivot Table

    Dear Sir,
    Thanks for your quick response. 451379470-9489 . I mean 451379470 to 451379489. In the actual Pivot Table
    I get a long report . I want to consolidate the numbers . If the numbers are in continuous , I want to shrink it.
    You may got it now I Hope.
    Regards
    M Nadarajan.

    Re: Needed to group Numbers in Pivot Table

    Hi,
    At present I am taking the report without serial Numbers. If I include the serial Numbers,
    the report becomes lengthy . As I have to take the report daily , I need the report to be precise.
    Thanks
    Regards

    Re: Needed to group Numbers in Pivot Table

    Dear nadarajan,
    Grouping within a Pivot table is easy. Take the field to row labels highlight the items you want in one group then right click and select the group option and Pivot Table will group it for you. You will get a new column with same header followed with number 2. You can change the column header and also change the name Group1. Hope this helps.
    Best Regards/VKS

    Re: Needed to group Numbers in Pivot Table

    Dear VKS,
    Thanks for your reply.Are you telling about Selecting Group by Group Manually !!
    I need to generate grouping automatically.Because I have to generate daily, weekly
    and Monthly Reports. Whenever the category and type are same and if the serial numbers
    are in continuos it should be grouped automatically while generating Pivot table.Is it possible So??
    With Regards /Nadarajan.

    Re: Needed to group Numbers in Pivot Table

    To my understanding there are two ways to do it
    1. Do it once on your pivot table and keep refreshing the table once data is updated.
    2. The other option could be using a VBA and that is something i am still wanting to learn. I think you should post a new thread under VBA seeking help in grouping.
    If you think i was of some help to you please dont forget to click that star on the left side bottom of my post.

    Re: Needed to group Numbers in Pivot Table

    Hi VKS!
    Thanks for the followup. Doing once and refreshing is not possible. Because
    The Range will differ according to the sales.So it is not possible one. VBA is the
    other option.I too not much aware about VBA.Let me try
    Anyway thanks for your suggestions.
    Thanks and Best Regards/MN

    THanks MN, You may want to mark this thread as solved and start a fresh one under VBA.
