Hi,

Can someone please help shorten this code.

Thank you.

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
With the following code, you'll notice that I use the Array function to list pivot item names and pivot field names, but for brevity I've listed only the first two for each one. You'll need to add the remaining names to each of the Array functions. Better yet, create a named range for each one and then simply replace each Array function with their respective named range.. So, for example, you would replace...

Code:
Array(...., ..., ...)

with

Code:
Range("MyNamedRange")

Also, you'll notice that I've used the Option Explicit statement, and I've declared all my variables. Have a look at the following link to see why these are good things to do.

Thank you this is very helpful. I think defining a range would be the best option since those fields will update every few months. Is it posuble to create a range in my personal notebook (usually always open, but hidden)? At the end of this I copy and paste the data from the pivot table info into a different workbook since the file is read only.

To refer to a named range within a hidden workbook, try...

Code:
vMatchVal = Application.Match(pi.Name, Workbooks("Book1.xlsm").Names("MyNamedRange").RefersToRange, 0)

You're very welcome!

Cheers!

I am getting around to testing this and I am getting an error that says "subscrpit out of range"

Code:
Set pvt = Sheets("SMMRY - WO BY DAYS IN ROLE").PivotTables("PivotTable1")

I have checked that the name of the sheet is correct and the pivot table is called PivotTable1 on that worksheet.

Did you check for extra spaces in the sheet name?

That was the problem. Thank you.

Now the error is that the Array fields for Columns are not populating in the order that I list them in. They are showing in a different error every time I run the code. Any way to make the columns appear in the order that I list them in? This is that section of code:

Code:
  'Columns
        For Each pf In .PivotFields
            vMatchVal = Application.Match(pf.Name, Array("WO", "LEAD WO", "Product Line", "YEAR", "Prgrms", "Engineering Region", "GFLT", "WO Subject", "WO Priority Code", "WO Sub Type", "WO Reason Description", "CCC Affected WO Fltr", "WO Subject", "RoleCode", "User Name", "Days In Role", "True WO Status", "Order_By_No", "WO Init Date", "PROC_DATE", "Has Cost Info"), 0)
            
            If Not IsError(vMatchVal) Then
                pf.Orientation = xlRowField
            End If
        Next pf

Sorry, my mistake. First declare the following variables...

Code:
    Dim vPivotFields As Variant
    Dim i As Long

Then try the following instead...

Code:
    vPivotFields = Array("WO", "LEAD WO", "Product Line", "YEAR", "Prgrms", "Engineering Region", "GFLT", "WO Subject", "WO Priority Code", "WO Sub Type", "WO Reason Description", "CCC Affected WO Fltr", "WO Subject", "RoleCode", "User Name", "Days In Role", "True WO Status", "Order_By_No", "WO Init Date", "PROC_DATE", "Has Cost Info")    

    For i = LBound(vPivotFields) To UBound(vPivotFields)
        With .PivotFields(vPivotFields(i))
            .Orientation = xlRowField
            .Position = i + 1
        End With
    Next i
