Our sample workbook contains a Pivot Table that sums all values under the Total column and filters them by the Type and Generation columns. Briefly, you can use the “…IFS” functions to achieve the same results of a Pivot Table with a little bit of ground work. If you are using Excel 2016 or newer, you can also add MAXIFS and MINIFS functions to the mix. Functions like SUMIFS, COUNTIFS and AVERAGEIFS that are available in Excel 2007 or newer, support using multiple criteria as parameters.
The family of “…IFS” functions can mimic this same behavior through a series of formulas. Pivot Tables are essentially user-interface helpers that can summarize and present data in a table format. For more information about Pivot Tables please see Data Analysis in Excel. In this guide, we’re going to show you how to create data tables using formulas as Pivot Table alternative. Although Pivot Tables have several advantages over using formulas for the same effect, working with Pivot Tables can be tricky in certain scenarios. Excel’s Pivot Tables are very powerful in the sense that you can perform most data organization and analysis tasks on the fly.
