While Excel formulas are powerful, you also need to plan and think hard before writing them to solve business problems. This is why I love Pivot tables. They are really easy to make and provide the biggest bang for buck. We can use Pivots to analyze data and answer business questions effectively and elegantly in short amount of time.

In this lesson, learn how to:
◉ Create a pivot table from your data
◉ Using the fields panel to construct your "dream" pivot
◉ Work with report filters, top 10 filters and sort options
◉ Change calculation in the pivot
◉ Set up slicers to "interact" with pivot tables
◉ Create "groups" in pivots
◉ Make pivot charts to analyze trends
◉ Calculate Cumulative "running" totals in Pivots
◉ Use conditional formatting with Pivots
◉ Percentage analysis with Pivots
◉ Set up advanced pivot tables to solve business problems
