Pivot tables
I have to record the hours overtime for casual staff and many departments - by week and then month and then report the number of hours. At the moment I create a sheet with the staff names and duplicate that for each week then have a tab for each month and a tab for all months. because I need different data for different departments and requirements - I am sure there is a quicker way ?

RE: Pivot tables
Hi Jo-Anne,
Thank you for the forum question.
Excel likes flat lists. If you want to analyse the overtime using a PivotTable or you want to filter the information all must be in the same list. The list must include all the information you want to analyse. When you have the data in the same list it is very easy to get information like:
How many overtime hours has Michael from the sales department had in quarter 2.
Or:
The total amount of overtime in week 20 for the administration department.
Kind regards
