hi, i'm using the below code to add fields to my pivot table. it works great, but my problem is it only works for one pivot table on each page.

can someone help me edit this so that if there are multiple pivots on the same sheet?

if it helps, i'm just using the code this guy created in the "Pivot Table Fields Macro Buttons.xlsm" file here:
https://www.excelcampus.com/vba/macro-buttons-pivot-table-fields/



Sub Toggle_Row_Field()
'Add/Remove the field to the pivot table.
'The field is determined by the button text that calls the macro.

Dim pt As PivotTable
Dim pf As PivotField
Dim sField As String
Dim shp As Shape



'Set variables
Set pt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables(1)
Set shp = ActiveSheet.Shapes(Application.Caller)
sField = shp.TextFrame.Characters.Text

'Toggle field
'If visible then hide it
If pt.PivotFields(sField).Orientation = xlRowField Then
pt.PivotFields(sField).Orientation = xlHidden
shp.Fill.ForeColor.Brightness = 0.5
Else 'Add to Rows area
pt.PivotFields(sField).Orientation = xlRowField
shp.Fill.ForeColor.Brightness = 0
End If

End Sub
 
Before running the macro try to check if you can do it manually.

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
hi Dante,

i am able to, maybe i should clarify...

it's kinda working, but in an odd way...
i'm able to press the buttons, and the fields will be added or be hidden, but the error will pop up alongside. it's occuring at the 2nd point it's used in the code..under the "Else Add to Rows area" :



Else 'Add to Rows area
pt.PivotFields(sField).Orientation = xlRowField
shp.Fill.ForeColor.Brightness = 0

I really don't know how to hide the fields, all I did was put your code in a cycle.
But you must fine tune it with a table and then adjust it in the cycle.

The error is new, or did you already have it from the beginning?
