Pivot tables and graphs

can you add a graph related just to a pivot table?

RE: pivot tables

Hi Wanda

Thank you for your question.

Yes, you can create a chart based on the data in a PivotTable.

Once you have the PivotTable created, on the PivotTable Toolbar select the Chart Wizard icon (3rd button on the toolbar.)

The PivotChart is linked to the PivotData so if you change the PivotTable data set, the chart will reflect these changes.

The chart itself also allows you to filter data from the PivotTable. The X-axis heading, Y-axis heading & Legend have drop-down lists. The changes made to the chart will reflect on the PivotTable.

The same tools apply to a PivotChart as a normal Excel chart, i.e the tools found in the Chart menu or right click.


I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.


If you require further assistance, please reply to this post.

Excel tip:

Manually rotating a 3D chart

To manually rotate a 3D chart;
Select the chart (edit mode) and click on one corner of the chart display area. A selection border will appear, using the left mouse button on one of the chart's "corners" (mouse pointer changes to a cross) drag the image which becomes a line representation of the chart (as you begin to drag) and rotate the chart to a view of your choice.
If you dont get it right first time, dont worry, the manoeuver is a little bit tricky.
