2 Objectives Create a PivotTable Add aggregate functions to a PivotTable Modify a PivotTable Create a PivotChart Identify chart elements Modify a PivotChart Add calculations to a PivotTable Work with calculations in a PivotTable Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 2

3 Create a PivotTable Data mining ─ the process of analyzing large volumes of data to identify patterns and trends PivotTable ─ a data summarization tool that can sort, filter, and total data in a table or query, and then display the summarized data in a format specified by the user Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 3

4 Create a PivotTable (continued) From a Query: PivotTable views can be created from either tables or queries Use an existing query or create a new query based on the tables that contain the fields you want to analyze Open the query in either Design or Datasheet view, click the View arrow, and then select PivotTable View from the list Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 4

5 Create a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 5 Drop Zones toggle (On/Off) Drop Column Fields Here drop zone Drop Totals or Detail Fields Here drop zone Drop Filter Fields Here drop zone Field List toggle (On/Off) Drill Buttons toggle (On/Off) PivotTable Field List

6 Create a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 6 Blue background indicates selected field PivotTable Field List Blue border appears when you drop a field onto a drop zone

7 Create a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. No field was added to Totals yet Title values provide column data Location values provide row data 7

8 Create a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 8 Average Increase added to Totals drop zone Trainees in Kansas City earned a 5.83% increase, on average Managers in Phoenix earned a 9% increase, on average

9 Create a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 9 Add and remove values to analyze specific data Performance values provide filter data

10 Add Aggregate Functions to a PivotTable Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 10

11 Add Aggregate Functions to a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 11 Atlanta shows details and aggregate data Create aggregate formulas using AutoCalc tool Other cities show only aggregate data Average Atlanta bonus Hide Details toggle On/Off Show Details toggle On/Off

12 Modify a PivotTable Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 12 Use AutoCalc tool to add aggregate data Show Details toggle On/Off Use Remove Field to remove aggregate data Details hidden for all cities Average salary added to detail section

13 Modify a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 13

14 Modify a PivotTable (continued) To change a PivotTable’s appearance: – Click Property Sheet in the Tools group – Click Format tab To edit the appropriate text or cell format: – Background color – Font color – Font size – Click Captions tab To customize field names Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 14

15 Modify a PivotTable (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 15

16 Create a PivotChart Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 16 PivotChart ─ provides a visual representation of the data in a PivotTable and is easy to interpret at a glance – Displays bars, columns, or pie slices to represent the data PivotTable ─ shows numeric data (detail records or summary calculations) If possible, provide the users with both form of illustrations

17 Create a PivotChart (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 17

18 Create a PivotChart (continued) Create Column and Bar Charts – Column chart Displays quantitative data in vertical columns Compares summarized data across different categories for a particular time frame Default chart – Bar chart Displays quantitative data in horizontal bars Width of bars indicates the relative value of the data as compared to the other bars Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 18

19 Create a PivotChart (continued) Create Line, Area, and Scatter Plot, and Smoothline Charts – Line chart – Area chart – Scatter plot chart – Smoothline chart Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 19

20 Create a PivotChart (continued) To create Pie and Doughnut Charts – Pie chart Displays 2 or more data categories as slices of a pie Values are converted to percentages of the total – Doughnut chart Shows the parts of a data source in relationship to a whole. Can display more than one series of data. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 20

21 Identify Chart Elements Plot area ─ the rectangular area where the graphical data elements are placed Axis ─ a vertical or horizontal scale displaying the information to be plotted Gridline ─ a line that extends across the chart Each series (or set of data) in a bar chart ─ represented with a different color or pattern Legend ─ tells which color represents the data for each data series Chart title ─ displays a name describing the data depicted in a chart Chart Filter ─ enables the user to temporarily narrow the data source to isolate a portion of the whole Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 21

22 Identify Chart Elements (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 22 Only the excellent performers Only four locations are selected

23 Modify a PivotChart Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 23 Title field added to the Drop Column Fields Here drop zone Performance field moved to the Drop Row Fields Here drop zone

24 Modify a PivotChart (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 24 Too many fields make the chart difficult to read Remove or filter a field to make it more readable

25 Modify a PivotChart (continued) Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 25 Open the Property Sheet to edit the series Blue borders indicate Manager series is selected Manager series selected

26 Modify a PivotChart (continued) Select a Fill Type Select a Color for the Manager Data Series Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 26 Change Border and Fill Properties Click Fill Color Click Border/Fill Choose a Fill Type Select a color

27 Add Calculations to a PivotTable Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 27 Click the Formulas button to create a calculated field New calculated field

28 Work with Calculations in a PivotTable Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall. 28 Check the math ($1,356.00 *.95 = $1,288.20) Calculated detail field
