In the field list, you have various options to change the structure and appearance of your pivot table, which are explained in this section:
▪Field settings
| The Field settings can be found in the areas section of the field list in the Row labels or Column labels areas; use the dropdown menu  to the right of each field. In the field settings, you can define if and how partial results are displayed and in which form the layout appears (outline form or tabular form); you can also change the field name here. |
▪Value settings
| Fields in the values area have different setting components from the field settings in the row/column labels. They can also be opened via the dropdown menu of the respective field and are called Value settings here. In the value settings you will find a selection of summary functions and calculations as well as the required number format for the displayed results. The field name can also be renamed here. |
▪Pivot table settings
| In the Pivot table settings, you can make advanced layout adjustments, define filter methods, select styles, set data usage and assign a name to the pivot table. You will find the pivot table settings located as a button below the areas section. |
▪Defer layout update
| You will find the Defer layout update option along with the Update button at the bottom of the field list. It allows you to "freeze" the continuous recalculation. You can rearrange the fields between the areas without time-consuming calculation. |
Please note: Changes to Field settings and Value settings are discarded when a field is removed from its area (back to the fields section or to another area of the areas section). Changes to Pivot table settings are retained.
