Webinar Details

Excel's GROUPBY and PIVOTBY functions let you build summaries that look like pivot tables but recalculate on their own, with no manual refresh. This 60-minute Excel training explains how they work and how to use them well in your reports.

You'll start with the basics and see where these functions have the edge over traditional pivot tables. The session then shows how results stay current as source data changes and moves on to more advanced uses, including multi-level grouping, custom aggregation and dynamic sorting.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
