0 -> A pivot table is a tool in Excel that allows you to quickly summarize data in your spreadsheet
6.18 -> To illustrate how to create a pivot table, let's look at a simple example
10.84 -> Here we have a table of data containing order information
14.58 -> Let's use a pivot table to summarize this information and display the total quantity for each order
20.82 -> To get started, highlight the cell where you'd like to create the pivot table
25 -> In this example, we've selected cell A1 on Sheet2
29.14 -> Next, select the Insert tab from the toolbar at the top of the screen
33.62 -> In the Tables group, click on the pivot table button
36.96 -> A window called "Create Pivot Table" should appear
40.14 -> Select the range of data for the pivot table
42.88 -> In this example, we'll select cells A1:F16 in Sheet1
48.18 -> This will be the source of data for the pivot table
52.08 -> Now click on the "OK" button
55.14 -> A blank pivot table should now appear on Sheet2 of your spreadsheet
59.96 -> Next, we will choose the fields to add to the pivot table
64.06 -> To add order ID and Quantity, select the check boxes next to these fields
69.58 -> By default, these fields are added to the pivot table as summed values
74.56 -> Since we would rather see each Order ID individually as a row in our pivot table
80.06 -> we will drag "Sum of Order ID" from the Values section to the Rows section
86.38 -> Now each Order ID is displayed as a row in the pivot table
90.52 -> However, Excel has defaulted the title in cell A1 to say "Row Labels"
96.06 -> Let's change the title to something more meaningful such as "Order ID"
100.56 -> Our pivot table now shows all of the order information summarized
104.38 -> We can see the Order ID values displayed in rows with the total quantity for each order
111.02 -> This completes our example of how to create a pivot table in Excel
