I'm trying to create a work sheet that let's me take all the parts from a specific bigger part and make a parts list for multiple different parts. Any help would be greatly appreciated

[@everodchung5584]

I’m wondering if it is possible to do this with excel online 🤔

[@vikaasb2016]

Hi @LeilaGharani ! You're undoubtably a gem👏👏👏👏 ! Just want to ask what to do when I have to use data in similar format for MoM ANALYSIS(separate sheet) and is exported from our tool called DOMO used in our business

I use method 1 for 15 tables , ~20k rows and it worked flawlessly. Thank you for getting right to the point and educating your viewers.

If there was an option to hit the "Like" button multiple times I would have done that coz one time is not enough for this wonderful piece of art! Thanks a ton Leila!

[@clashpoet]

Thank you! I used method 1 to solve a huge problem, an over 1,000,000 rows problem. I am pulling together a month's worth of data and it gives me over 1 millions rows, which Excel can't handle in a single sheet. So I created 2 sheets (with about 700k rows on each). But I needed to combine the data to analyze and give to my customers. Method 1 saved me. Thank you!

My monthly data is so huge that I'm required to split it into two sheets (1st to 15th and then 16th to end of the month). I was searching since past so many days a method to create a pivot from multiple sheets and today came across your video... I usually don't comment on KZbin videos... but I couldn't hold myself from expressing my APPRECIATION and GRATITUDE towards this video. Thank you for sharing this wonderful method/trick.... God bless you! Is there a method where we can create a connection between different workbooks too?

[@mattschoular8844]

Thanks Leila. I use method 1 often but method 2 also comes out of my toolbox on occasion. The nice thing about using the data model is being able to set a number format like currency, which comes into all subsequent pivot tables already set.

[@Rosiechen2018]

Definitely method 2. Thank you as always for you excellent teaching! Love all your tutorial videos.

[@cassioalexan]

Leila, you and this video deserve a thumbs up just by having explained the method 1, which is not commonly taught by others. Most videos I've seen so far concentrate on explain only method 2 (same column in all tables), however I just need something as you explained in the first part. Just want to thank you by this! Success!

[@ifount]

Excellent video! Very helpful! May I ask, however, why at around 4:05, do you create a "connection" before you append the tables? What is a "Connection"?

[@vivekkumar-we1er]

Indeed my excel is getting better as long as I watch your videos. Thankyou from India,🇮🇳🇮🇳

[@rolandaugust6602]

A great tutorial, leaned a lot on method 1 (instead of c&p into one table Which I did so far). How could both scnearios be combined, when you have multiple input tabs and the need to enrich data ? The data model allows a relationship to a table, but not to a query.

[@aynino]

I suspect you will first need to apply your transformations (or enrichment) of the data into power query, then load your new tables as « table » into your workbook and use that as the basis for your data model.

[@joeknoernschild4628]

I love your videos. I have used them many times to help me with work questions as well as stuff for home. Your videos are always spot on and helpful.

Congrulations. Really wonderfull , i am using internet around 25 yrs. i can say thats the best explanation and very understandable video i ever seen

[@1982757]

Hello, thank you for an excellent tutorial. I made up a dataset with three different worksheets but all with the same id number to serve as the primary key linking them. I followed the second method to create a relationship between the three worksheets. However, when I try to create a pivot table with info from the three worksheets, it pops up a message saying relationships need to be created. When I look at the data model, I see that the three sheets were recognised in the diagram view. What am I doing wrong?

[@octaviakf]

Did you make sure that all of them were a table like how she did in the beginning?

I am using office 365, and i hope i can also use the feature From Sheet. hope you can help me with the settings. thank you.

[@dearshaji]

[@gsahdala]

This is very useful! I tried method 2, but when I tried to make the relationship, it says that the columns to relate can't be repeated in the table. I'm trying to make a pivot table from to sheets, one has records of invoice number, and the other has records of cash receipts to that invoice number. A client can make multiple payments for just un invoice, so the invoice number will be repeated in the sheet of the cash receipts. The reason I want a pivot table is because I need to do a check balance with to see if the customer paid the invoice completely. Can you please help with that? Thanks!

[@Noble.Hustler]

I wish these videos gave mention to the plethora of nuisances that can arise, and btw which are equally important in the setup. In the real world things aren’t always as cookie cutter like most of these examples had me believe once- I literary thought it was me. For example, the master table must always have distinct row IDs or primary Keys in order to work. In addition, can’t simply combine any fields, it depends on which tables you’re selecting from. For example, the table data only provides the values fields (can’t select labels or will get errors), while the table master provides the header filters (can’t use it for values without involving some sort of advanced DAX formulae). Great video overall, thanks Leila!
