What Are Pivot Table Reports?

Pivot Tables are reports allowing you to quickly view large amounts of data in an organized format. They display your KPI (key performance indicator) data in an Excel-style table. This makes it easier to identify trends, analyze patterns, and make decisions based on the data.

Pivot Tables are considered among the most powerful data-organizing tools available. They allow users to analyze their data in new ways and make informed decisions based on what they learn from the reports.

But how do you use Pivot Tables?

It's actually quite simple. All you need to do is select the columns or rows containing your KPI data and drag them into the pivot table area. From there, you can create a custom report with the data that you need.

You can also use the sorting and filtering options to find the information that you're looking for quickly. This makes it much easier to spot trends and areas of improvement in your data.

If you need help getting started with Pivot Table Reports, no worries! Our team of experts are always available to provide expert advice. We'll walk you through the steps of creating a report and answer any questions you have.

How to add a Pivot Table Report in SimpleKPI?
