You may need to combine data from different sheets into a single table and then create a pivot table based on that table. In this case you will need to add the data. Do not use formulas to add the data. Especially if your column headers are in a different order, this can get quite complex. Instead, you can use Get & Transform (Power Query) from the "Data" tab in Excel. With Power Query, you can add data from different sheets (even from different files and sources) and create a single pivot table.
Sometimes you may need to combine data from different sheets using a search function such as VLOOKUP to get more information from another table in the table you need to create a pivot table on. Do not use VLOOKUP to add additional columns, instead use the relationships in the /"Data/" tab. With relationships you automatically add your tables to the data model and you can create a power pivot based on that. You don't need to write a single formula.
Your results will also be dynamic. Once you get new data, all you have to do is /"refresh/" your pivot table and the new data is there!
These pivot table tips will help you analyze your data and get better, faster insights from your data.
