Hi

I have  a spreadsheet which has many tabs at the bottom for different companies. Sheet1 is the master where all info is recorded on a daily basis, I run the macro and it copies the data to the relevant company tab, all that is ok.

Now I have been asked that a new page is created with just the contents of one column selected. So for instance column G needs to be selected from the master sheet and a new sheet created called MS,Aldi Separation and any entries that have figures to be copied to a new sheet. The list below was done manually by copy and paste from the master sheet to a new sheet added called MSaldi separation

Interesting. You were able to do it all in a Table.

I see you cleaned up his company data.

I would do 2 tweaks to your layout.

First I would put all the slicers at the top of sheet, ie move the "Fiscal year" slicer

Second, I would add a "Company" slicer.

Questions:

#1. what is the "Multi Acc Invoice"? Where did this column come from? I think I see it now, but is it really necessary?

#2. Why do some rows have various styles applied to them?

#3. Why the unreadable text color for most of the Fiscal year entries?

Stephen:

Do you need / want the amounts to be totaled?

Data entry is somewhat similar, but you need a separate row for each account type. This is a better format, actually the required format, for creating a pivot table.

D'oh! (head smack!) My mistake. I should have done this too (thanks for the reminder and inspiration Jeovany!) ...  So here is what his better formatted data looks like in a pivot

No spaces!

Notice that I put the "Designated Account" and "Fiscal Year" columns into the "Filter" area. This added the option to filter the pivot table in the upper right corner of the pivot. So you can filter by the specific account you wanted, and I picked one year, but if you need, you could also select all years.

I think this new pivot gives  you what you need.

(Yes, I am pivot crazy.)

Here is another example using the same pivot. I've filtered for "All" accounts to and one specific year, 2017. It includes a total for all accounts that year

Here is a link to my tweak of Jeovany's file

    Is there a quick way to copy slicers to all sheets at once rather than sheet by sheet?

    That appears to be a mistake, a "first try".   Those lists should be in one place only, and preferrably not on the data input tab.

    Ideally, you would split things up:

    • a tab for data input
    • a tab for data verification lists (that the users normally don't use), could be a hidden tab
    • one or more "Report" tabs for PivotTables and/or PivotCharts to make up a "Dashboard" that the users VIEW only for output

    The users have to be taught the new layout / design so that they can get the most use of this new way of doing things.  The "Report" tabs can included Slicers and Filters to modify the report(s) that the users can focus on specific topics as well as the broad picture

    One standard that many places use is colors to indicate cells / rows / columns / sheets where users can do input and other places that are output only. Note that the Pivots do have limited "input", the Slicers / Filters that modify the reports.
