How to Add automated summary for a report based on certain metri

Hi Stefanie,

It can be done but it is complicated.


You can write VBA code (see below), or you need to create the PivotTable in PowerPivot and the PivotTable must be based on a data cube. If it is created from a multi dimension data cube you can display the slicer information using the CubeRankedMember Function.

Public Function GetSelectedSlicerItems(SlicerName As String) As String
Dim oSc As SlicerCache
Dim oSi As SlicerItem
Dim lCt As Long
On Error Resume Next
Application.Volatile
Set oSc = ThisWorkbook.SlicerCaches(SlicerName)
If Not oSc Is Nothing Then
For Each oSi In oSc.SlicerItems
If oSi.Selected Then
GetSelectedSlicerItems = GetSelectedSlicerItems & oSi.Name & ", "
lCt = lCt + 1
ElseIf oSi.HasData = False Then
lCt = lCt + 1
End If
Next
If Len(GetSelectedSlicerItems) > 0 Then
If lCt = oSc.SlicerItems.Count Then
GetSelectedSlicerItems = "All Items"
Else
GetSelectedSlicerItems = Left(GetSelectedSlicerItems, Len(GetSelectedSlicerItems) - 2)
End If
Else
GetSelectedSlicerItems = "No items selected"
End If
Else
GetSelectedSlicerItems = "No slicer with name '" & SlicerName & "' was found"
End If
End Function
