Excel has several powerful features for data analysis, one of which is the PivotTable. PivotTables allow you to extract specific pieces of information from a larger data field; in short, they allow you to focus on the data you deem most important. This course helps you fully utilize the functionality of a PivotTable, including how to summarize, organize, group and modify data.
Excel automatically totals the data in a PivotTable by either summarizing or counting the items within. If you are looking for more than that though, Excel allows you to customize how your data is presented and calculated using the value field settings. You could also simply create a custom calculated field in your PivotTable. This course demonstrates how to use these techniques to analyze your data.
Of course, summarizing your data is only one step in your analysis process. You must be able to organize your data so it is easy to understand. For example, you may want to group dates by month, quarter, or year. You can also filter the data and change the format of the PivotTable itself; it is important to maximize the functionality of your PivotTable while minimizing clutter, and this course shows you how. Utilize the information presented here and better sort, analyze, and present your data through PivotTables.
