Pivot Table ST

A pivot table is a summary of data that allows users to explore trends. It is more flexible than a normal table as it provides summarized data rather than entire data. The procedure to create a pivot table involves selecting data, clicking insert pivot table, dragging fields to different areas, and filtering or sorting the data. Pivot tables allow insights into data, can work with SQL exports, make data easier to segment, and create instant summaries.

on your information.

• Pivot tables are particularly useful if you have long rows


or columns that hold values you need to track the sums
of and easily compare to one another.
