Straight Road to Excel 2013/2016 Pivot Tables: Get Your Hands Dirty (Paperback)

The pivot table is without doubt the most powerful data processing tool ever introduced by Microsoft into the Excel product tool set, rivaled only by its younger sibling, Power BI. The ability of pivot tables to transform large quantities of data into a clear, concise summary report is incredible. The power of pivot tables as a data processing tool is only limited by user knowledge and imagination, and unthinkably, there are some Excel users who know next to nothing about pivot tables. This book is written by a Microsoft Office specialist expert (MOSE) and a mining engineer with extensive experience in Excel. The authors experience in various Microsoft data management tools such as SQL Server, MS Access, and the MS Business Intelligence tools are brought to the fore in this book.
