    VBA Database / Tool

    Hello,

    Hoping someone can help. I built a basic, formula driven tool (attached) that is used by colleagues to view the average salary for gender, discipline, location etc. It requires a manual refresh each week, with new data added to the DATA tab - which updates two PIVOT tables, which I then paste into the FIELDS tab. Recently I have had a few requests to make it a bit more dynamic, giving people the option to select multiple disciplines and/or offices etc instead of one from a drop down.

    I am sure a VBA script would make this a much more dynamic tool to use and perhaps limit the refreshing I have to do each week. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!


    DATA - raw data (anonymised in this case)
    PIVOT - GNDR AVG - Pivot table showing the average FTE salary for grade/office/discipline/gender
    PIVOT-LOWHIGH - Minimum and Maximum salary for grade/office/discipline
    FIELDS - data validation lists for the TOOL tab and the pasted pivot tables from the PIVOT-GNDR AVG and PIVOT-LOWHIGH tabs
    TOOL - the user interface (the only tab showing for my colleagues).

    You can create a macro to refrsh the pivots and copy the data after new raw data is added. Also, another macro to add multiple choices in the same dropdown si doable. But how will you calculate the rage midpoint, position against it, salaries? A concatenation of all returned values per each choice? Won't be too much?
