Ok I know the heading is horrible but let me explain:

I have a large Inventory spreadsheet.
Column B: Part name
Column C: Quantity on hand
Column D: Re-Order (basically an X indicates it needs to be re-ordered when quantity is 0 or 1)

I have a pivot table on Sheet 2 that will show all the Items with a 1 or a 0 that also have the X
Basically its a condensed table for the person who does the ordering so they don't need to weed through the main list to see what needs to be ordered.

All I want to do is when a part comes in, is to edit this pivot table with the new quantity and have it update the main list. This way I don't need to sort through the main list to find the incoming part. This is to make receiving parts faster and less mistakes.

Obviously with a pivot table you cannot edit the list. its just a visual thing.

I have VBA code on the main list (ThisWorkbook.RefreshAll) to refresh that table. I'm hoping if I can edit the pivot table, it will then in turn refresh the pivot table as I receive parts.

Attached are the two tabs:
Parts: Main parts list (400+ parts normally)
Re-Order: The condensed list which I want to use to receive parts and edit the quantity as they arrive

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
I need to mention that this is stored on a Sharepoint site. However, we open it locally so the macros and VBA code work.

I figured out a work around. I created two macros. One to filter the items and another to clear the filters.
I then inserted a Toggle button and assigned the macros to the button. Works the same way and is obviously editable
