Hi All,

i am not sure how to describe my problem so bare with me please.
i have worksheet that is used to provide data in a Pivot.
i the data is a column overdue which tell if a training has to be taken. however this training may be added multiple times to a user and therefor can be overdue multiple times. in the pivot is counted as multiple overdues.
i would like to make a report form the pivot table based on unique overdues.

I only see that they are not all unique when i open a detailed overview of overdues in pivottable

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
maybe try add table to data model while creating pivot table then select from Values count distinct

posted here is part of the data sheet. as you can see there are 3 courses that are all over due. in the pivot it would show all 3 but in fact it is only 1 course 3 times
