How to Create a Pivot Table From


Multiple Sheets in Excel?

Creating a pivot table is not as complicated as it sounds. Excel has


had a Pivot Table Wizard since its early versions. We can use the
same and implement a pivot table with ease in a step-by-step
manner.

In this example, we are considering the superstore dataset. This


data is divided into four varieties based on the geographical regions
as Central, East, West, and South. The same data will be shown in
the four different and segregated sheets below.

Central

East
West

South
Now, let us use the shortcut ALT + D. This will activate the office
access keys as shown below.

Now, try pressing the letter 'P' on the keypad. This will enable the
Pivot Table Wizard, as shown below.
Now, select the third option that reads as "Multiple Consolidation
Ranges" and choose the "Pivot Table" option from the available
options.

In the next step, you will find two options. Select the second option
that reads as "I will create the page fields." Selecting the first will
help you as the wizard will create a pivot table. The only drawback
would be a slight compromise in customization. The Image looks as
shown below.
You can see a window asking to select the data range in the next
stage. Here I am selecting the range for the central region and using
the add button to add the details to the wizard window. Similarly,
we will add the ranges for all the sheets. The final wizard window
will look like the image shown below.

Next, we shall manually add the fields to all the selected ranges by
selecting the option of one-page fields option as shown below. The
wizard allows up to four-page fields. Following the fields.
You'll be redirected to the pivot table wizard once again. Here,
select the option of the new worksheet and click on the finish, as
shown below.

A new pivot table is built successfully. Now, adjust the calculations.


In this data, we found the calculation to be count; We needed Sum.

So change it to SUM, and now you can see the exact sales data
based on the region as shown below.
Also, the pivot table gives you an option of selecting the sales data
to be displayed based on all or a particular region.

With that, we have reached the conclusion of this article on Creating


a pivot table from multiple sheets in excel.
