Watching those empty rows vanish instantly in the PivotTable was one of those deeply satisfying #Excel moments we all crave.

The crowd reaction? “Wait – why didn’t I know that trick before?”

👏 Takeaway: Sometimes the smallest DAX tweak delivers the biggest clarity in your reports. 2/3

Watching her realize she’d never have to “copy-paste and clean” again was pure magic! #DataPreparation #DataCleanup

The best part? Other students jumped in with their own automation tips, showing just how collaborative the @Skillwave.Training community really is. 🤝

Damn... I'd forgotten you wrote that. I'm going to pass that on to the Excel team as I would LOVE to see that native with PivotTables - particularly if it would still resolve values when the PT is in a #SPILL! state..

Multiple members added their own strategies and provided demos, truly showcasing the power and passion of the AKA community. 🙌

Of course Excel’s Forecast Sheet function builds static on-time-use forecasts, but that wasn’t good enough for us… With a few modifications to the underlying formulas, we made it fully dynamic so that it would update upon a data model refresh, dynamically forecasting the next two years of sales! 🔥
