Event information

One of Excel’s biggest releases this decade without a doubt has been the GROUPBY function which can replicate a PivotTable via a function offering several benefits:

  • They refresh automatically without having to click.
  • Do new functions like median or ARRAYTOTEXT which lists out as a comma separated list (e.g. Book customers: Warren, Jane, Linda & Movie customers: Pat, Harry).
  • Create custom aggregations like distinct counts, distinct ARRAYTOTEXT.
  • They can be used with any chart, PivotTables do not support newer charts like maps, waterfalls, sunbursts etc.
  • Watch a deep dive as David present everything there is to know about these game changing functions.

This is a session in our Critical Skills series, a series dedicated to helping Chartered Accountants excel in today’s competitive environment.
