    Exclamation Pivot table with multiple questions with multiple answers

    Howdy folks! I am a bit stuck.
    I created a pivot table but i am stuck..

    I have a question regarding Gender And I have multiple questions which have multiple answers on a scale from 1 to 5. I would like to present them all in one pivot


    Question a -> 1 - 2- 3- 4- 5
    Question b -> 1 - 2- 3- 4- 5
    Question c -> 1 - 2- 3- 4- 5
    Question d -> 1 - 2- 3- 4- 5
    Question f -> 1 - 2- 3- 4- 5

    I need to sort the answers first of all by gender and then by the questions.
    I can make pivot table for every question, but i was wondering can i do them all in one? (example attached)

    My pivot looks that I have Gender in Column
    Value in row, and question count in values
    and i get the number of answers in total, but i am trying to break it down by the answer option to have something like this


    Female Male
    1 2. 3. 4. 5 1. 2. 3 4. 5
    Question a -> total answers by option
    Question b ->
    Question c ->
    Question d ->
    Question f ->


    So I need to add something under columns which will get me a scale from 1 to 5 in the columns and then sort the answers below.. (i am not sure was i clear enough) but please find the example attached

    Hope someone can help out! Thanks in advance ..

    Re: Pivot table with multiple questions with multiple answers

    Hi,
    I used Get and Transform tools to re-shape the data. If you are accustomed to it then you can see all the steps in advanced query editor.
    My Idea was to:
    1. Get Gender in one column
    2. Get Questions in one column
    3. Add one column to show 1 question in 5 rows with value of 1 to 5 in each row (each possible selection value in one row) and this column was used under gender in columns area of the pivot)
    4. Final selection column was created to ensure if weight assigned is 1 then it shows against 1 of the options columns else it leaves blank
    Once above was done it was easy to get it into the pivot.
    Hope this helps.

    Best Regards/VKS
