This week, I've been working on some dashboards, and want to make it easy for people to select a date range for the report.

本周，我一直在使用某些仪表板，希望人们可以轻松选择报告的日期范围。

I experimented with drop down lists and slicers, and finally settled on a good old-fashioned scroll bar. You can click or drag the scroll bar to select an end date, and see three months of sales data, and the total.

我尝试了下拉列表和切片器 ，最后选择了一个不错的老式滚动条。 您可以单击或拖动滚动条以选择结束日期，并查看三个月的销售数据以及总数。

The technique doesn't require programming and is fairly easy to set up.

该技术不需要编程，并且很容易设置。

滚动条选择结束日期 (Scroll Bar Select the End Date)

The scroll bar on the Summary sheet is linked to a named cell on another sheet, and that number is used in an INDEX / MATCH formula, to calculate the end date.

摘要工作表上的滚动条链接到另一工作表上的命名单元格，该数字在INDEX / MATCH公式中使用 ，以计算结束日期。

The date headings have formulas that show the selected end date, and the two prior months.

日期标题具有显示所选结束日期和前两个月的公式。

从数据透视表获取数据 (Get Data From a Pivot Table)

The sales data is summarized in a pivot table, by report month, and region.

在数据透视表中按报告月份和区域汇总了销售数据。

The summary table uses the GETPIVOTDATA function to pull the correct data, based on the region name and the date.

摘要表使用GETPIVOTDATA函数根据区域名称和日期提取正确的数据。

The IFERROR function returns a zero, if the data isn't found in the pivot table.

如果在数据透视表中找不到数据，则IFERROR函数将返回零。
