What happened to Pivot Table view in Access 2013?

Anothers problems too. We can design at access application without office (by access runtime), however if you has incorporated any pivot table or pivot graphics in access, you'll need use excel to can exploted it. That's is a big contradition to development.

Is possible than microsoft look any way to users use Office? Unless i can't understand this change.

As an Acess prof it's very sat pivot tables/chart are lost in Acces 2012/2016! It was a powerfull tool to analyse data. The workaround i n Excel is poor and not functioning! There occurs data loss and connection problems (Acces vs Excel) Replace the pivots and  Access will be embrassed again by many users!

When did Access users get an opportunity to voice anything like that? One assumes great features are not going to be removed.

We didn't. MS always makes it's own decisions. MS claims to listen to users, but it is hard to see proof of that.

I can only tell you I have seen some proof of it. It is no secret that Microsoft collects a lot of "telemetry" data from users (or tries to). Whenever you install a Microsoft product you are asked if you want to allow Microsoft to collect this data. The data is collected anonymously, but it does give MS some input to how the products are used, what features are used, etc. That data is reviewed and impacts the decisions as to what features to work on, what to drop etc. 

I can't tell you how or if that data impacted the decision to drop Pivots from Access 2013. I just don't know. But I do know that there are people at MS that do use that data.

But MS has stepped up asking for Customer feedback. They have uservoice pages for most of the products. So if you want new features, enhancements to existing features, or dropped features returned. Then use your "uservoice". Encourage colleagues, friends, relatives, strangers on the street, etc. to use their "uservoice".

In the past, one could make that assumption. Features were added, and only very rarely removed, usually only after being replaced by an improved version. Starting with 2007 MS has been making unilateral decisions to remove major features, things like:

• dropping the menu for the ribbon 2007,
• making retail license good for only one machine at a time, 2013
• totally eliminating MSI (customizable) installations, 2016
• playing musical chairs with where PivotTables are located
• adding restriction to 2016 that now forces users to uninstall ALL older versions of Office!

IN THEORY, MS listens to input from users during the Beta tests (MS calls them "Previews") right before releasing the product to the public. The problem with that is that it is too late. At that point, MS will only fix major defects.
