Hi......help.

I am trying to pivot some data. The source data contains dates, such as 01/07/2016 (1st July 2016).

However, when I select the date to incorporate into my pivot table the date 01/07/2016 does not appear. Instead, I have columns headed month, quarter & year.


Years Quarters Date
2017 Qtr3 Jul
2017 Qtr3 Jul
2017 Qtr3 Jul
2017 Qtr3 Jul
2017 Qtr3 Jul

How do I remove these three columns from the pivot table and just have the actual date?

Thank you
Jon
 

Excel Facts

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
when you put the date in you get three fields in the rows I believe

Just drag back up the ones that you dont want. ie quaters and years

I think hard withou seeing it and how you are doing the pivot
