Change Data Source

If you change the size of your data set by adding or deleting rows/columns, you need to update the source data for the pivot table.

1. Click any cell inside the pivot table.

2. On the Analyze tab, in the Data group, click Change Data Source.

Change Data Source

Tip: change your data set to a table before you insert a pivot table. This way your data source will be updated automatically when you add or delete rows/columns. This can save time. You still have to refresh though.
