@ pharmankur : You did not enter a valid data field to your Pivot Table Layout. If you add a valid data field (e.g. Sum - Qty), it works as expected, at least in my installation (3.5.3.1/Linux x86). Could you please try once again with a valid data field and reopen the bug if you find it still does not work as desired. So the bug you described seems to be rather a usage problem. But ok, one might consider to catch empty data field with a warning. Created attachment 60688 [details]

@ nino

Ok, now I see what you mean. Let me summarize: 1) A "secondary" selection list should be refreshed to reflect only actually selectable items (depending on other selections). 2) A selection of no items should not lead to collapse of the whole table. The current behavior is a limitation of the current implementation, and this is technically an enhancement request. Marking it as such. |
Created attachment 60512 [details] on 1st sheet data is created, On 2nd sheet pivot table is present When a pivot table have multiple levels of data, selecting the Higher level of data should show appropriate & applicable options only, while selecting lower (dependent) level of data Find attached the spreadsheet file with pivot data to understand my point. There I have created a dummy data for a department store. having headings --> Counter Position Item Type Item Name Qty Possible 'Counter Position' are --> Main , Display , Inside Possible 'Item Type' are --> Fruit, stationary, Vegetable, Crockery Possible 'Counter Position' wise 'Item Types' are; Main --> Fruit, stationary, Vegetable Display --> stationary, Vegetable, Crockery Inside --> stationary, Crockery ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (What should happen --) Now, When I make the pivot table of this data & when I first select Counter Position -- "Main" (From drop down box) ; & then I move further to select Item Type (drop down box) ; I should see only the 'Item Type' options possible with my previous selection ("Main") i.e. I should see only the options (In drop down box) "Fruit, stationary, Vegetable" (What is happening --) On the contrary currently I am seeing all the options (In drop down box) ... Fruit, stationary, Vegetable, Crockery But "Crockery" is non applicable option under "Main" thus should not be visible in drop down. As a result, if by mistake I select option "Crockery" & deselect all other options (under "Main") All of my Pivot table collapses & it is not recovered ! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Even in pivot table in office 2007, you get to see only applicable options based on your preselected option. The bug is not very annoying but definitely its illogical & has to be removed if we want perfection in Calc.
