Re: PowerPivot & PivotTable Update/Refresh Problem
Hello all and thank you for your help in advance.
I am using Excel 2010 on Windows 7. The Scenario of my issue is as follows.. I have two tables of data on one worksheet in Excel. I am using PowerPivot to create a relationship between these two tables and then create two pivot tables "One for each table" on another worksheet. I then create a Slicer that will allow both tables to be manipulated by the same criteria. I then create two Line charts (one for each pivot table ) that can be manipulated by the same slicer. It works a treat until I go to update the power pivot table and refresh the pivot table. The Power Pivot table updates just fine with new columns, however when I got refresh the pivot table all my troubles begin ... the pivot table goes blank and even after I go to into the Pivot Table Field List tab I cannot set the fields back the way they were without "The Field you are moving cannot be placed in that Pivot Table area.
Has anyone had any experience with this? I am stuck.. Google Searching and forum browsing has not presented a solution or else I am using the wrong terminology in my searches.
kind regards
