Hi guys, I need a help with the Pivot Table please, I need to group text fields automatically by the first 3 characters, how could I do that? Noting that I need to do this in the same workbook because I came across some solution but it needed to create new workbook for the Pivot Table. I do not want to proceed with manipulating the raw data as well, I need to do this through the Pivot Table itself please.

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
