    Hi @Anonymous

    You will need to remove any record that has N/A in the filtering (or any record that does not follow the proper date structure.

    Once you have done this the capability to choose days will no longer be greyed out. Then you can choose 7 days (which will be you week filter).

    Hi,

    Are the date columns formatted in correct date format? If they’re not, they won’t allow grouping, filtering or any other date related function.

    Hi, @Anonymous
    Have you tried to refresh the pivot table after the change? Whether excel is up to date, it is recommended that you update to the new version.
