    maintain the same number of columns even without data

    Hi Gurus,

    How do I maintain the same number of column?

    Currently the pivot table has 11 columns,
    Row 1 (EMP02) has 11 columns of data;
    Row 2 (LSC01) has 4 columns of data.

    If I filter only by LSC01, then the column pivot table will be dynamically show only 4 columns.

    How it is possible to select only LSC01, but maintain 11 columns like below (without adding zero dummy data into the source)?

    I tried "For Empty Cell show: 0" still won't help

    What I need is to show all columns available, if filtered column without data should remain as zero
