I new to pivot tables. I'm using a financial year which starts from April and
ends at March, how do can I change the pivot table to read from these months.
Currently it defaults from Jan to Dec. I'm using Office 2003.
Thanks
 
Hi

Dave has given you what is the best solution - using an extra column in your
source data.
You could, however, do it within the PT.
First, Group by Months, not Quarters.
Then, with Months as a Row field, select the 3 months representing your Q1,
by holding down Control and clicking on each cell.
Right click>Group>name the resulting Group1 as FY2009-Q1
Repeat process allocating the other 9 months to their respective quarters.

And continue doing this for each FY <vbg>.
