Hello! I need to create a report using data from the tab "Master Pool" in this document.
You'll see in this document there's a header in the tab "Master Pool" called accnum. This is our unique identifiers for this document, and the thing we'll be counting in the final pivot table. There's also headers called "Test", "Measure", and "Item Type". These are what we will use for filters.
That above part of the pivot table (and I'm open to this report being expressed in whatever way works, I just chose pivot table because that makes the most sense) is easy.
Now here's the issue. What I want to measure in the report is found under the headers Accessibility 1, Accessibility 2, Accessibility 3, and Accessibility 4.
Each row has different values for these 4 columns. Each column can have one of a few options for this values (see tab "A11Y Tag Placements"). These values are not presented in the data in any specific order, nor is the data the same across items (For example- In the column Accessibility 1- a row can contain just "Magnification". It could also contain "Magnification" and "ASL".).
The issue I'm running into, is that when I try to make my pivot tables, because the info in those cells (Accessibility 1-4) is can change from row to row wildly, but still only has a few set options, what I get is all the permutations of what those values can be arranged as for values.
What I need (please see tab "A11Y Placements") is the actual values of those fields extracted, and total counts for each values in the way I've presented them on tab "A11Y Placements". I then need to be able to filter down these counts using the filters "Test", "Measure", and "Item Type".
