    Here are the steps
    1. Add a helper column showing Month Text Just as I have done in Column H
    2. Now insert a Pivot Table
    3. Put Fields in there required sections in the Pivot table Field List Window just as I have done .
    4. Now Select the Row Lable column and Uncheck the Subtotal for Material field option. That’s it.

    Hi BusyGurl,
    I have managed to do this, Excel inbuilt help has enlightened me.

    Steps:-
    Click any date in the Column Lables
    Click Pivot table options tab on the Ribbon.
    In the Options Table, Click Group Field option.
    Click Months then click Ok. Thats it.
