    Pivot tables - remove duplicate items

    Hi there, I have posted an example file to explain what I am trying to do within my pivot table (the file is just a pasted area from my original pivot.

    I have a duplicate item on line 9 within the first 2 columns - is there a way of hiding? Normally I could filter out by (blank) - but A9 and B9 are not blank - they are the same as above. I just don't want to display duplicate items in the table

    How do you want the output to display without showing duplicate items?

    To just ignore the second duplicate - hide it from the pivot results if possible?

    That is not strictly a duplicate. The League information is unique.

    Why include the leage field ?

    You cannot right click on the value in column C and say hide, because that will hide all other rows where the same entry appears.

    You might need to remove it from the data, if thats possible.

    Hi,

    As per my findings the only way to remove the duplicate item is select the item and by right click hide that entry.

    Note: Pivot always provide the unique records, however in this case you just have same records for a different league not the duplicates.
