Filter PivotTable dropdown items to match report filter
 

In an Excel 2007 PivotTable, I want the dropdown list of Departments to match
the chosen Faculty (Faculty is the report filter). In the default PivotTable
I have a listing of all the Departments at the institution.

I know I can separate the data and make several PivotTables but I wanted to
preserve all the data in one table.

Thanks,

Filter PivotTable dropdown items to match report filter
 

The Report Filters aren't dependent, and there's no setting you can
adjust that will change that. Each dropdown list will show all the items
in its field, not just the ones that match a selection in another Report
Filter.
