Can't Upgrade PowerPivot file from 2010 to 2016

Good afternoon,

I'm a Desktop Support Specialist; currently, my company is upgrading users to Office 2016, and one of our departments uses PowerPivot. They've attempted to convert a PowerPivot spreadsheet made in Excel 2010 to 2016, but ran into issues. I took it upon myself to help (without any knowledge of PowerPivot, I'm afraid), but I can't seem to figure it out. I've searched online in many places, but all came to dead ends.

Here are the steps of the issue:

-Installed three PowerPivot patches found at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3114297 (Otherwise PowerPivot won't start)

-Opened the spreadsheet in Excel 2016. A message appears saying that an older version of PowerPivot was used, followed by another message asking the user if they want to upgrade the spreadsheet. Clicked "OK".

-Another message appeared, stating that the spreadsheet needed to be saved, closed, and reopened . Clicked "OK"

-Error appeared, stating workbook can't be saved.

-If re-attempted, another error appeared:

============================
Error Message:

Specified method is not supported.

   at Microsoft.Office.PowerPivot.ExcelAddIn.SandboxVersionManager.UpgradeWorkbook(GeminiWorkbook geminiWorkbook, BackgroundWorker worker)

Can anyone please help?

Thank you,

Find which numbers create total

I'll try to make a long story short.... I get to complete the Annual Financial Report this year. Basically I am looking at last years report to know where to plugged my numbers in. Unfortunately, there is a report number that is compiled from multiple numbers and I am not sure what numbers to use. (there is no one to ask where this total came from) I have tried to figure this out manually with no avail. I was wondering if there is a formula (I am a simple formula person) I could use to tell me where they got this total. Example: 56423, 87945, 5297, 87, 478542, etc. Total is 987365. so take this multiple list and tell me which combination of numbers equal the total (or the closest to total incase the math was incorrect last year). Does this make sense and is this possible?

Thank you in advance

My spreadsheet consist of names in the columns and dates in the top row. I have conditional formatted to indicate weekend (Saturday and Sunday).  Some of the workers have either the Monday off or the Friday, which I have successfully formatted. What I am looking to do is:

If their scheduled day off (the Monday) is a statutory holiday (example: December 26, 2016) I need the next available work day to format (example: Wednesday December 28th as Tuesday December 27th is day in Lue of boxing day) or

If their scheduled day off (the Friday) is a statutory holiday (example: April 14, 2017) I need the previous available work day to format (example: Thursday April 13, 2017)

Thank you for any insight. I have been wracking my brain for a couple weeks now.

Hello, 

I am currently trying to pull financial information from Yahoo's Key Statistics Page . I was able to find a script online but i cannot figure out how to adjust the script to import all of the data on the same excel tab rather than creating a new separate tab for every ticker. I am also only trying to pull 3 pieces of information: Total Debt (mrq), Total Cash (mrq), Revenue (ttm), NNet Income Avl to Common (ttm): and Market Cap (intraday)5:

Sub Macro2()

    For i = 1 To 2
        
        Sheets.Add After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
        ActiveSheet.Name = txtSymbols(0, i)

IFERROR(LARGE(Data[Cashbook Balance Date],COUNTIF(Data[Cashbook Balance Date],">="&'Cash Book '!D1)),INDEX(Data[Cashbook Balance],MATCH('Cash Book '!D1,Data[Cashbook Balance Date],-1)))

Hi all

I am trying to use the formula above but it's not working as I would like it to. I have two sheets - A Data Sheet and A Cash book Sheet:

User enters transactions on  Data Sheet which has columns including  Bank Code Column (can enter multiple bank codes), Running Cash Book balance (for each bank code) and Cash book balance date (dates can be repeated and may not be in order).

On the Cash book sheet, user can only select start date and bank code and the sheet should calculate monthly totals for the bank code and start date specified - drawing from Data sheet. The formula above should draw the opening balance from the Data Sheet - Cash Book balance for the date specified or next lowest date.

 

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated:

How to graph the amount of employees per month??

Let me see if I can get my idea across....

I have a list of 200 employees on column A. On column B I have their "hire date" and on column C I have their "release date". All column B cells have a value, but some cells on column C do not have a value, because they are still employed at the organization.

I would like to create a pivot table and then a pivot chart and would like to graph the amount of employees I had on any given month and year since the organization was first established 20 years ago.

If an employee was hired in March 1998 and left the company in May 2012 I would like to count him as 1 employee every single month since March 1998 until May 2012.

How can I do this??

If it can't be done with a Pivot Table, does anyone have an idea how to graph this??

Missing some data sources for Get & Transform (Power Query) Office 365 Excel 2016 E3

I have Office 365 E3 version, which I understand to be the Enterprise ProPlus version.  I have installed Excel 2016 64-bit and I do not have all the sources that I am supposed to have.  Particularly, I'm missing Sharepoint Lists as a source under Get & Transform (formerly Power Query).  Also, From Azure is grayed out but not a problem for me yet.

What do I need to do to access this?  I have uninstalled and reinstalled today, and verified I have the most recent version (1610).  Some support docs list the location as under Other Sources and some list it under From File but I do not have it in either place.  I have seen screen shots showing many more Get & Transform sources than I have available.

How do I get all the available sources?

P.S. I have attachments ready to prove I cannot see the data sources but I cannot attach them until I'm verified.

Power Pivot - Three Data Tables

Hi,

I have a data model with three tables and three lookup tables joining them all.  If I just have two data tables the calculations between tables work.  When I add the third data table a simple sum table1.column1 + table2.column1 doesn't pic up the data from table2.

Is there a maximum number of tables that work or could I have done something else wrong.  I'm very confused.

Dear developers, 

I currently trying to create a school expenses management where I have 5 different schools entering their data and as an administrator will retrieve data from the 5 schools and combine the data to be viewed in Power Bi.

Criteria is that each school will not be able to see different school's expenses. And school admins will need to login in order to see the expenses worksheet and form.

Is there any example or projects which running the same? Thanks

Currently I have created 5 different sites (name it School A, B, C, D, and E). Each schools will have their own form and Excel worksheet.

Is there any way to combine all 5 school's data from different sites and publish it to Power BI?

Thanks, your help is much appreciated. Sorry that I can't upload photos yet :'(

Aligning rows of 2 pivot tables

November 8, 2016, 8:56 am

Hi,

I have created two pivot tables on the same Data Source.

They are both linked via a slicer.

I have also included identical row labels for both the pivot tables.  There are 4 levels of row labels.

I would like to know if there is a way to "link" the exact rows of both the tables.  Meaning, if I expand or contract the row labels in the first pivot, then I would like exactly the same behavior to happen in the second pivot.  Thereby the 2 tables remain aligned at all times with respects to the rows that are displayed.

In the worst case if a macro must be written then I do not mind it, but first preference remains using some inbuilt pivot table or slicer functionality.

Thanks in anticipation of all your suggestions.

Problem with ODBC Query in Power Query (Excel) ("Details: "ODBC: SUCCESS_WITH_INFO [01004] Fetched item was truncated."")

November 10, 2016, 6:48 am

Hi,

I'm using Power Query for Excel (Microsoft Excel 2016 MSO (16.0.6925.1041) 64-Bit and alsoMicrosoft Excel 2016 MSO (16.0.6965.2092) 64-Bit) and the following error message pops up, if I'm trying to use specific queries (e.g. load complete table "Select * from ..."): Details: "ODBC: SUCCESS_WITH_INFO [01004] Fetched item was truncated.""

This message pops up even if the table is very small (e.g. 2 columns and 10 rows).

2-3 weeks ago it was working totally fine, but the Microsoft Office did an auto-update and since then this query function does not work very well anymore.

It would be amazing, if someone knows a solution because with this problem it is really hard to work. 

Also would probably already work, if I downgrade to an older version of Excel 2016, but I can not find any version list in this format 16.0.xxxx.yyyy. 

Thanks for you help and best

Hi,

When opening power pivot and/or trying to add new query from whatever source my excel crashes. There are no error messages given, it just closes down. 

The same thing happens when going into options --> add-ins. After clicking on Add-ins excel just shuts down. 

Also, when using save-as and trying to create a new folder the same thing happens. 

I have tried reinstalling without luck. 

Any tips on what to try next?

I'm currently running (16.0.7426.1015) 64-bit excel. Part of the Office 365 ProPlus package.

How to add 32 Bit XLSX driver if Office 64 bit is present

Hi,

I face a problem with incoherent ODBC driver distribution policy of Microsoft in Windows 10

looking into a raw installation of Windows 10 X64 there is only the legacy stuff inside, XLS, MDB 

However there is nothing for XLSX, neither in ODBC 32 nor in ODBC64 Bit.

Then I install Office 2010 x64 Standrd edition and did full install, "run all from my computer" selected, and there isn't XLSX yet available for 32 bit applications.

The obvious solution would be to install the AccessDatabaseEngine, but the 32 bit portion refuses the install because of the presence of Office in x64 bit.

Query Tables Does Not Fill Down Formulas When Refreshed

I have used external data queries for several years, connecting to a variety of data sources, but most frequently to SQL server 2005 using MS Query and ODBC. Anyway, in Excel 2007, when I refresh my queries and the data range adds new rows to the query table, the formluas do not fill down past the previous extent of the data range. These are not external queries converted from a previous version of Excel; I built them in Excel 2007, and the issue persists across multiple workbooks. To answer the inevitble suggestions:

1) The formulas are definitely in the query tables, not adjacent.

2) "Extend data range formats and formulas" is enabled in the advanced tab of Excel options.

 

I've found threads on other sites where users had similar problems, but have not seen a satisfactory solution or even a good response to their inquiries. Any ideas?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
