I have come across this error and seen it discussed here and would like to see if this makes sence ?
What I have noticed is that if a column that you are pivoting on has the same values as another column, it creates the error.
| If I pivot on this column it throws the error because the Lesson column has English as a value. | I use this column as the non aggrigated values. | |
| Lesson | Assessment | Points |
| English | English | 4 |
| English | English Lit | 3 |
| English | English | 6 |
Many thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
If you choose "Don't Aggregate" there are two values for the 'English' assessment. 2 into 1 does not go.
So you either use an aggregate or introduce another column e.g. an Index, to prevent aggregation

Thanks for the response.
Ah think I have got it, the pivot acts like a group query were it needs to group on the other columns and aggrigates the value to stop it appearing on seprate rows.
I've added a key into the list and used Max, when I refresh the error has stopped.
Many thanks @HotChilli
