Interactive dashboards & analytics in Excel
Learn to build interactive Excel dashboards with PivotTables and GROUPBY, add slicers and timelines, and choose the right charts, including map, waterfall and Pareto.
Overview
A good Excel dashboard answers questions at a glance and keeps working when the data changes. This demo-led 60-minute webinar, presented by an Excel MVP, shows you how to build one.
You'll see what makes a dashboard effective, which chart suits which question, and how to aggregate data with PivotTables and the newer GROUPBY function. You'll then add interactivity with slicers and timelines so viewers can filter the whole dashboard with one click.
The session also covers Excel's built-in AI tool, Analyze Data, charts inside cells (sparklines), and newer chart types worth knowing, such as map, waterfall, box and whisker, and Pareto charts. It suits users at every level, from first dashboard to advanced.
Why attend: Most organizations store plenty of data but rarely analyze it. This session shows you how to use Excel's built-in tools to analyze your data, turn it into clear charts and make those charts interactive, so users can click to choose a date period or region and the whole dashboard updates. You'll also see how to set up your source data so it works well in a dashboard. Even regular PivotTable users will pick up tips and tricks, plus newer tools such as AI auto-analysis and the GROUPBY and PIVOTBY functions, which can do things PivotTables can't.
