Leila Excelent video as always giving to us the xtra step on the analysis of each new function and not just showing the basics! with your video you took a deep analysis through these cool and new excel functions!! as always my hat off for you!!
Dont take this the wrong way but zzzzzz..... You've got a masters in economics, maybe do a vid about economics? I get it tho, youre shit hot at excel, you passionate about anything else? 😃
Your teaching style is enlightening. So many people make tutorials and they have zero skills on how to break things down accurately and easy to follow. You do a great job. I go to your channel everytime I need to know how to do something.
You have to admit that the yearly fee for 365 is worth it for all of the work that team is doing putting in these cool functions. The Lambda inside blew my mind.
@@dougmphilly I've found some pretty good uses for Lambda in the name manager. Just this week. I wanted to calculate some stats based on three inputs for 4 columns of data. I used hstack to spill the results and instead of having the formula for computing the stats repeated 4 times in the hstack I created a 'r_stat' lambda and passed it the values. Assume x,y,z are the inputs. HSTACK(r_stat(x,y,z,Choosecols(myarray,1)),r_stat(x,y,z,Choosecols(myarray,2)), etc...
Very cool functions, Leila! For most Excel users working in an office setting, though, I still think pivot tables are easier to use. Most people won't be writing lambda functions, and while I think these formulas are awesome, they could be confusing to many people versus pivot tables. Great demo of these functions, though! Thanks for sharing !!
Oh this is wonderful! Thank you to the Microsoft team for coming up with useful new features and thank you to Leila for giving us such thorough demonstration. I really appreciate that you go into each available arguments of a function and give us different scenarios that we could be dealing with on a daily basis. ❤
Love this! Dynamic grouping and pivoting without having to refresh is awesome. Using TEXT is a big plus that's been seriously needed for a long time! I only wish it came with formatting options. Only options to format nicely when number of rows or columns change is to either manually change formatting every time or work with conditional formatting formulas to get them just right. Either way, a little extra work to make a sheet presentable
Friday morning? ... almost slipped by unnoticed ... thankfully my coffee was close by. Once again, new features that I would not have known about without Prof Leila ... an effortless presentation ... and 'seeds' have been planted. Thank you ... thank you ... thank you ... 😍😍😍
These new (to me) functions work just like magic, learned a ton in just 15 mins! Thanks so much! (Not to mention having Jesse Pinkman and Walter White in the 'Health' Division really is spot on 😅)
Wow!!! This is awesome to know that the almighty report 'curator' in Excel (Pivot Table) can be overthrown😅 Thank you @LeilaGharani for always bringing to us the most updated happening in the world of Excel. Looking forward to the release in Office 365.
This is incredible. Seemingly Power Bi like concepts and functions are slowly being migrated to Excel. Maybe one day all BI tools will all be built in Excel.
Thank you deeply for all what you are doing , it is so great, i just starting using the groupby function and it works fine except that the sum function is not working, it always give me Name error, but all other function works, I over ride this by using lambda(a,sum(a)) instead and it worked💗
Very cool functions, Leila! For most Excel users working in an office setting, though, I still think pivot tables are easier to use. Most people won't be writing lambda functions, and while I think these formulas are awesome, they could be confusing to many people versus pivot tables. Great demo of these functions, though! Thanks for sharing !!
This is awesome and thank you for sharing so many examples, very comprehensive. Just from looking at the GROUPBY function in this video I think it will invalidate the need to use UNIQUE, SORT, FILTER, SUMIFS and COUNTIFS in many cases. Amazing!
Awesome. You are the best Leila! Were you looking over my shoulder as I was thinking today! Power Query is awesome but I like No 1 best. I use all, No 2 is useful for IF, OR and IFS . 🎉
Thank you Leila for such a cool video that makes me so impatient to have those formulas in my version of Excel! Your videos allow me to continue upping my Excel game ❤️
I've been waiting for these functions to filter down to my beta for months, so very happy to see they have now arrived. Having to remember to refresh pivot tables drives me nuts, so it looks like a lot of work coming up to (try to?) replace my many pivot tables with the new functions. Some are rather complex though. And quite a few need PQuery to clean the data first, and it would likely be too complex to try to eg use filter(). Great video!
Very cool features. But you could probably construct a conventional pivot table more quickly via the traditional method. Also, can you generate a compact design in which 2 fields populate the rows area, one beneath the other?
Yeah there isn't anything useful that you can't do with a pivot table. Personally I like using power query to group by because the output is in the form of an Excel table and you can add formulas that will dynamically be expanded to any new rows when you refresh with a new data set.
My thinking is that first you draft by building the pivot, paly with the structure more easily and once you got the final structure, implement that with groupby/pivotby so it updates dynamically and you don't need to refresh.
These formulas will save me a lot of time and energy. Thanks Leila! I've also learnt you have Walter White and Jesse Pinkman as Sales Managers in the HEALTH Division... I like your humor.
Awesome 🎉 At the moment im struggling with one task, maybe you can support me how to do. Task: Which two items are the most frequently used item. Consider the transaction code. Table 1: Column A: transaction Column B: item Column C: quantity Table 2: Column A: all possible combination of the items Column B: (result) how often the combination has been used.
Love these, thanks a lot. Might be able to replace my existing arrays where I have used Unique for category, Transpose(Unique) for months and finally SUMIFS for the Sum
Wow, another amazing video Leila, I watch all your videos and wish to be as skilled as you one day! You are opening my doors to my dream job in Data Analytics!
@leila gharani, I wanted to try these functions but I dont have them? I have updated my microsoft account, and yes, I have 365. What else could I try? Please help.
Thank you, Leila. Very helpful. My use case has more to show, namely labor hours, cost, sell and profit totals. I only want to sort by 1 column, but show these multiple columns? You mentioned near the beginning about just selecting more columns, but it doesn't seem to be that simple as I get errors when I try. The Help on the function by Microsoft also does not show an example, so I am looking for more in-depth advice.
Learning quite a bit of NEW sheet rules, kind of easy and complicated both at the same time, alien functions to me, but, very, very useful functions rules to follow! 😺🥰⭐️💎
I appreciate your efforts in enhancing user capabilities through updates. Please provide guidance on utilizing the GROUPBY & PIVOTBY functions for multiple tables across several sheets.
Do you know of a way to filter the summed results I am getting using group by? For example, I would only want to see results if the sum of an item was over 100.
I have been following all of your excel tips so far and it helped me a lot. Now I had to change my OS and started using macOS. Please help with your insights with using office excel in Mac.
Thank you Leila, you always share amazing functions. Just wondering, if I have 10-20 PV tables in the worksheet, is that better to use these functions instead? Compare with pivot table, which one will slow down Excel? Thank you
OMG, you're so smart and helpful. THANK YOU Leila! I love how you give real life examples, such as working with a spreadsheet someone else made and where they didn't quite follow good spreadsheet husbandry. :)
Again an exceptionally good explenation. You get to the heart of the matter clearly and cincisely. Tank you for your inspiration using these techniques in my daily excel work.
Great Video!! These are really game changers... Now I'm starting to think how could I replace all my pivot tables, so I don't need to refresh manually! And, by the way... I also loved the shirt!!!
Thanks Leila for upgrading us before they are shown off. Currently these are in Beta version, any guess by which month of this year these will be made available in office 365
@@LeilaGharaniHi Leila, I switched to the beta channel and I got updated to Excel version 16.82 (24011715) but there is neither groupby, nor pivotby is available. Which Excel version do you have, where these functions are available. LG, Chris
Good morning! I am curious: How far in advance do you get the new releases? I'm asking g because I have a subscription to Office 365 but I do not yet have the GroupBy function (nor the Checkbox function for that matter)? Or, am I missing some "update" requirement?
Thank you Leila, I was missing your video and thought that maybe you are busy with Global Excel Summit. Excel is really becoming more and more powerful and I look forward to you to be my mentor continually in this exciting journey! 😊👍
Thanks, Vijay! I did slow down on RUclips because we want to focus more on courses. But we'll continue to post if we come across some exciting stuff. Thanks for being part of our journey!
Hi Leila. You might want to send out a subscriber note that GroupBy crashes Excel. With me, at least a dozen times when attaching Slicers to filter the GroupBy results. This problem has been reported to MS but you might want to lend your voice to getting the bug fixed. Thanks for all you do.
There's not much british female asian muslim/non muslim middle eastern I.T specialist videos here on youtube, great video btw Leila, brand new british subscriber here
Once again, formulas that I do not have because they are only available to insiders, It would be nice if you would mention this at the satart s I dont waste time watching instructions for features I don't have. You are well respected and followed please consider advising us when these functions are only available to insiders
Hi looks very useful, similar to the new python features. I have 2 questions. 1. Is there any option to have a slicer style button when using group by or pivot by? 2. Are you able to show more than one result, I.e. show sum and percent by using one formula? Thanks

Great video. Wondering how you would apply formatting to the result to make reading easier, problem is it is dynamic so formatting should also be dynamic?
Grab the file I used in the video from here 👉 pages.xelplus.com/groupby-pivotby-function
These functions are available in Excel for Microsoft 365.
Is there any estimate as to when they will be available?

These are game changers in my opinion. The dynamic behaviour, especially for PivotBy is so useful.
👍
I agree completely
When will it be native in Excel???@@LeilaGharani
I can’t believe I never saw your videos before. The clarity you display is unparalleled.

Very nice use of the HSTACK function to create a contiguous set of row fields. Well done.
You have to admit that the yearly fee for 365 is worth it for all of the work that team is doing putting in these cool functions. The Lambda inside blew my mind.
