    Pivot Table Question

    Hello,

    I have a data set that is organized like below where I have an order number along with it's corresponding units, forecast ship date and actual ship date all in a row:

    Order # Units Forecast Date Actual Date
    1 100 11/10/14 11/11/2014
    2 200 11/11/14 11/12/2014
    3 300 11/12/14 11/13/2014
    4 400 11/13/14 11/14/2014
    5 500 11/14/14 11/15/2014


    What I am trying to do, is create a pivot table that will combine the dates into a single column and then summarize the units accordingly, like so:


    Date Units Forecasted to Ship Units Actually Shipped
    11/10/14 100 0
    11/11/14 200 100
    11/12/14 300 200
    11/13/14 400 300
    11/14/14 500 400
    11/15/14 0 500


    Does anyone know if this is possible to do using a single pivot table? I know I can do it using formulas and whatnot but I'm trying to avoid writing that since I'd like to have multiple filters on the table.

    Thanks!

    Evan

    Re: Pivot Table Question

    sorry evan, i don't think that's possible, but it would be pretty darn easy to do with formulas and then you could pivot that information to apply the filters. something like =sumif(c:c,a2,b:b) for your units forecasted column and =sumif(d:d,a2,b:b) for the actual # shipped.

    if you have any issues or additional questions it would help if you could upload a sample workbook we can work with.
