    Question Create separate pivot chart for each filter?

    Hi, I have just started using Pivot tables and charts and have found them to be very useful. I have a pivot chart (simple pie chart) created from a data table with filters on it. This is great for flicking between each filter. However i was wondering if there was a way to create a pie chart for each filter next to each other for easy comparison?

    The only way i can do it is to copy and paste as picture, but then these charts no longer update or to create a seperate pivot table for each.. . If i simply copy and paste, when i change the filter on the table both charts change

    Thanks for any help

    You will (I think) require separate Pivots for each Chart, however, it sounds as though the Pivots can all share the same cache.

    Thanks for the reply

    I think that is what i have now. They all feed off table1, but each chart has its own mini pivot table on the side. So if i want to change something i have to do it on all. This works, i was just wondering if there was a built in function to run off one pivot.

    There are ways to update multiple pivots simultaneously : VBA pre XL2007; Slicers XL2010

    To demo we'd need more info. in terms of what is being altered & where ... regards changes that should be reflected in all Pivots.

    It's not worth a VBA code, VBA scares the other staff here. I only need to change one filter on 6 charts. Will just create a seperate sheet for each filter change.

    Thanks for the help
