PivotTables · original practice scenario
Clear a focused PivotTable slicer filter
A Region slicer limits an expense PivotTable to East.
Start here: Windows desktop Excel; focus inside the slicer associated with a PivotTable
This does not clear every filter in the workbook. Outside the slicer, the same keys can act differently.
Follow these instructions in your own desktop Excel workbook. This page explains the operation; it does not send commands to Excel.
