I found the error.
Some of the dates were blanks or the values in the amount column were blanks.
After correcting the data, the pivot table worked fine.

In my pivot table I tried to right click the "Date" column in order to group
by month.
A message popped up "Cannot Group that Selection".
Is there another way to group by month?
Should I create another column for month in my data source?

These are my headers for data source on another worksheet in the same
workbook.

Thanks in advance for any help.
