Corupt external data link
I have an Excel pivot table linked to a SQL Server table. A filter allows
users to select individual months of data, which is grouped by team leader and team member. This setup has worked for a number of months until now. When the user selects 2007/06 from the month filter, the pivot table now returns data from April. The underlying data seems fine; the corresponding fields in April's records are populated with 2007/04 in SQL (they are varchars, with data stored in yyyy/mm format). Furthermore, when you drill into the pivot table, that field is populated with 2007/04 even though 2007/06 is selected in the filter. Another option has now appeared in the filter list; 2007/062. When this is selected, June's data is returned. Have you any ideas why this has happened? Btw. 1. The problem persists even when the month field is included as a row header and only 2007/06 is checked. 2. Several team leaders have local copies of the spreadsheet and ALL experience the same problem. |
