I cut and pasted this from the pivot table. As you can see there are a few
orders having the same Order Accepted date, but different order numbers. I
want to count the number of orders accepted during a given month. I have a
separate worksheet that summarizes the information by month/year, and was
trying to create the formula to capture the number of orders accepted for
each month/year. The other thing is that I want to sum the total amount for
the given month/year as well.

DO# VO# RFX# Order Accepted Total Amount
10091 RFQ10091 12/6/2006 24072.02
0006UH01 RFQ9470 12/6/2006 6994940.12
5T03 7076 RFQ7076 12/6/2006 1512.82
RS24 RFQ10159 12/22/2006 4384730.91
RS25 RFQ10160 12/22/2006 488992.80

Could you type a few rows of sample data into a message, and explain the
result that you'd like to see in your pivot table, from that sample data?

I could use some assistance with counting the number of orders and vendor
orders for a given month. I have Date Order Accepted in one column, Delivery
Order in another, and Vendor Order in another. Because multiple orders (both
DO and VO) can be issued on the same day, the Date Order Accepted is listed
once for a given date, and the two orders associatd with it are obviously
grouped together, but with DO having one order and VO having the other. How
do a count the number of orders issued in a given month? I believe if I
could figure this out, I could expand my summary worksheet to capture the
total value of the orders reported for a given month. Of course, if someone
could help with that, it would be appreciated as well.
