Pivot Table similiar to excel

dattina2287

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a pivot table that is similar to what i would do in excel that looks like the following. What would be the best way to do this in Alteryx?

Summarize tool is your best bet! Group by Investor Indicator, Sum by Market Value, and Sum by Annualized Fee

Thanks but it doesn't let me group "Annualized Fee Revenue" by sum. Sum is greyed out for some reason.

Make sure it is a number then by converting it to a Double using a Select tool before the Summarize

Hi, you can consider the tools below:

  • Summarize: this is the core equivalent of excel’s pivot table
  • Cross Tab: this takes the “grouped” data and spreads one field out into columns

If this helps, please like the post and mark it as the solution. Thank you!

@dreldrel this has been resolved!

 

also the Crosstab option would not work since you can only have one values column summarized - you’d have to do two crosstabs then a join whereas the summarize by itself is the best option :)

@alexnajm Thanks for sharing your insights. Agreed with your thoughts :)
