Step 1: In the PivotTable Fields pane, drag Item to Rows, Region to Columns, and Actual Price
to Values.
Step 2: Ensure Actual Price is set to Sum (it should be by default).

NA from "Region."
Step 1: In the same PivotTable, click the filter dropdown on Item and select only Microwave,
Oven, and Refrigerator.

made in Columbia, sorted from lowest to highest.
8. As part of a re-organization process, you have decided that NA (North America) and
LATAM (Latin America) should be consolidated into one entity called "Americas".
Step 1: First, change Data labels for NA and LATAM to Americas.
We can do it easily by selecting the Region column in our original data, then clicking CTRL+H,
opening the dialog box of Find and Replace.
To make sure that our values are replaced only within the relevant column and not in the whole
workbook, click Options, then make sure "Sheet" is selected in the "Within" option.
We can do it easily by selecting the Region column in our original data, then clicking CTRL+H,
opening the dialog box of Find and Replace.
Step 2: After editing the data, refresh your PivotTable to update the regions.
Result: The PivotTable will now show consolidated sales data for "Americas" instead of NA
and LATAM.
10. Create a Pie Chart for the $ amount of sales per store in the USA.
Step 1: Filter the dataset or PivotTable to show only rows where Country is "USA".
Step 2: Insert a Pivot Chart from the PivotTable by selecting Insert > PivotChart > Pie Chart.
Step 3: The chart should use "Store" as categories and the summed Actual Price as values.
Result: This pie chart will visually show the distribution of sales among the stores in the USA.
11. Add a Slicer to filter by Item in the Pivot Chart.
Step 1: Select the PivotChart and go to PivotChart Analyze in the Ribbon.
Step 2: Click Insert Slicer and choose Item as the slicer field.

easier to analyze sales for each type of appliance.
