Hi all,

I am well and truly stumped!
I hoping somebody will be able to help me with this as I have spent days trying to make sense of it but I am not getting anywhere.

I want to be able to easily filter a location to decide out a number of people who would it take the shortest amount of time to travel to that location.
I have managed to do this by creating a pivot table and then creating a formula for the closest person. I have also added a slicer to easily filter the location.
To me that's the easy bit.
The next thing I want to do is to be able to filter out certain people that could attend that location. So if there was a person that was closest to that location but didn't have a certain skill I could remove them so they don't appear in the filter for that location. So somehow I would like to filter by a skill then filter by a location to show the people that could travel to that location and the closest person. That probably sounds easy but I just cant work it out. Does anyone have any ideas.
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
