In Microsoft Excel 2013, you can apply a filter to limit the data in your PivotTable. When you do so, you'll find there's no visual representation of which values are in or out of the PivotTable. Filtering a PivotTable using slicers is the best way you can achieve this goal. In this online training video, you will learn how to use slicers and the Analyze contextual tab to represent visually the current filtering status of your various PivotTable fields.
When you apply a filter to a PivotTable, Excel limits the data that appears in…the body of your worksheet.…The problem is that there is no clear indication of which values are included,…and which values are excluded from the current state of the PivotTable.…In this movie, I will show you how to use slicers, which do give a strong visual…representation of values that are either in or out of the PivotTable.…I will use the Slicer sample workbook, which you can find in the Chapter03…folder of your Exercise Files archive.…
This PivotTable contains quarterly customer acquisition data for a company, and…it's based on a year and region.…Let's say that I just want to focus on the East region. I can create filters…using the tools that I've shown in other movies that you can access form the…PivotTable Fields pane.…But let's say that I want to have a strong visual representation of which…regions are displayed in the PivotTable.…To do that, I can click any cell in the PivotTable, then click the Analyze…contextual tab on the ribbon, and then in the Filter group, click Insert Slicer.…
