Can you set up a pivot table so every time you download a bank statement it will automatically format itself? Perhaps if there was a way to assign a classification to each line item on the banks site that would be part of the download?
Hi Charlie, Yes, you could do this with a Macro command, and I agree it would be great if there was some kind of standard coding applied by banks to each transaction. But, I guess that this in itself might cause confusion.
Very handy. But I have a problem with sorting after the analysis column is populated. It won't sort properly with i.e Descrip col. The analysis col info won't follow the sort. I assume it's something to do with the way valid list behaves? Anyone?
Hi Simplekind, look for the + in the bottom left corner when the cell is active. Then drag it down. Alternatively Google 'Excel Autofill' to learn the technique. :-)
The CSV file I've taken from an account from HSBC bank, the numbers £-/+ figures are not active therefore I can't add or use auto sum (always gives 0 as total ) do you know a way of making these figures active? without having to type each amount into other columns ( debit /credit ) Any advice would be appreciated

Hi Travis, the idea is that the Pivot Table facilitates this, rather than the raw data.
I cannot seem to get the "drop down arrow" for the rest of the cells. Only the "d2 " cell. You say to drag the cursor down but what option do I paste?
Hi Simplekind, look for the + in the bottom left corner when the cell is active. Then drag it down. Alternatively Google 'Excel Autofill' to learn the technique. :-)
thank a lot.
No problem! :-)

Hi Pamela, try using an IF Statement and then when OK copy/drag down the formula. Save's retyping :-)
what software do you use for that and can it be use in U.S.A.
Hi Lito, It's Excel 365 and it's available globally :-)
I have 1-11 in the list and the pivot table organises them as 1 10 11 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. How do you organise them numerically please?
You can download a copy of the original template at www.MrSpreadSheet.com :-)
when I download a CSV file it does it in Numbers not Excel. Can you tell me how to change that.
Hi, have you tried loading the your csv file from within Excel?
Thanks for this!! How do I add new data?
Hi Allen, try downloading data from your online Bank Account/PayPal. Then you can practice using this :-)
Please, how do I get a copy of the bank statement to help me practice.
Hi, Please follow the guide at the end of the video :-)
