How do I create a pivot table from two excel sheets with data (same columns, just data that stretches over two sheets)? I have tried to use multiple consolidation ranges in step 1 but then it groups columns into "row", "column", "value", "page 1" as items. I need to have each column as a separate item.

Hello Sofia,
I hope you enjoyed your Project training session with us.

In response to your question, I am not aware of a way of creating a pivot table that draws its data across multiple sheets, other than how you have already tried. The only other thing I can think of is perhaps you could first consolidate the data, then run the pivot table off the new consolidation? Please try this and let me know if it does the trick.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved. If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. And please feel free to ask any other questions you may have.

Have a great day.
