Change the sheet tab name to Initial Pivot.
Use the pivot table's Report Filter Pages feature to insert new pivot tables on separate sheets that filter the location for each location type - Remote, Town, Countryside and Village.
You should now have 4 new sheets as shown below:
Each sheet has a new pivot table containing all the same filters as the original, but has a new filter on the Location field which is different for each sheet.
On the Countryside sheet, add 2 slicers and use them to filter to show only:
Detached and semi-detached properties; with
3, 4, or 5 bedrooms.
This should give this:
You can move and resize the slicers just like any other object in Excel.
On the initial pivot table, insert a date on the market timeline and filter it to show:
Properties with 1 or 2 bedrooms; which were
Placed on the market between Nov 2022 and March 2023.
Your pivot table on the initial pivot sheet should now look like this:
A timeline is like a slicer but for dates only.
Re-name the sheet tab to Timeline Pivot and use Save As... to save the file in your own new Excel work folder.
