Overview
The Angular Pivot Table is a powerful control used to organize and summarize business data and display the result in a cross-table format. It includes major functionalities such as data binding, drilling up and down, Excel-like filtering and sorting, editing, Excel and PDF exporting, several built-in aggregations, field lists, and calculated fields. A high volume of data can be loaded without performance degradation by using row and column virtualization.

AI-powered analytics for faster insights
The AI‑powered Angular Pivot Table accelerates self-service analysis through natural language commands. Instead of manually configuring every field and setting, users can focus on the question they need answered. Commands such as “Show me sales by region and quarter” or “Calculate revenue per unit sold” are instantly understood and executed, making this especially useful for guided analytics, internal BI experiences, and faster time to insight.
Classic layout
The classic (tabular) layout enhances data visibility by presenting information in a traditional table format. In this layout, each row label is displayed distinctly at various levels across separate columns for clarity and better organization. This structured approach simplifies the analysis of datasets, making it easier to interpret relationships and trends within the data through a detailed, organized, and user-friendly table format.
Pivot charts
An Angular pivot chart can easily be integrated with pivot data rendered independently. The component includes support for plotting more than 20 chart types. The end-user experience is greatly enhanced with a set of user-interaction features: drill up, drill down, zoom, pan, crosshairs, trackball, events, selection, and tooltip. Highly interactive field list options are available for generating reports from relational data dynamically.
Virtual scrolling
Large amounts of data can be divided and displayed in the rows and columns of the current viewport using the virtual scrolling feature. Users can navigate to a desired view by scrolling the vertical and horizontal scrollbars.
Paging
Large amounts of data can be divided and displayed page by page with the paging feature. The pager UI allows users to navigate to a desired page using the navigation buttons or an input text box. Row and column pager sizes can be changed independently at runtime. Furthermore, users can toggle the position of the row and column pagers, modify their visibility, and visualize them using a compact view mode.
Pivot Table field list and group fields
The Angular Pivot Table field list and group fields options are automatically populated with fields from the bound data source. They allow end users to drag, filter, and sort fields, as well as create pivot reports at runtime.
OLAP data binding
The Pivot Table can be connected to an OLAP cube, and its result can be visualized in both tabular and graphical formats.
Defer layout update
Users can refresh the control on demand instead of during every UI interaction in the Pivot Table.
Drill down and up
The built-in drill-down (expand) and drill-up (collapse) capabilities visualize data in detailed views and abstract views, respectively. By default, the data is displayed in a grouped manner.
Editing and updating
Users can create, read, update, and delete operations for raw data at runtime and update their changes to the underlying data source, reflecting the information in all corresponding cells. The Pivot Table control supports various edit modes such as inline, dialog, batch, and column edit through an interactive UI.
Filtering
Built-in member filters and Excel-like filters with advanced filtering options can be used to filter and view data as required. It is also possible to filter data programmatically in the Pivot Table.
Member filtering
Filter members in a pivot table to filter data displayed based on values in the row or column axes.
Label filtering
Use Excel-like filtering options across column and row headers based on label text, dates, or numbers.
Value filtering
Use Excel-like filtering options in column and row headers based on grand-total values.
Sorting
Users can use sorting to order rows and columns based on labels or values.
Header sorting
Order the column and row header text either in ascending or descending order.
Column sorting
Column sorting, also known as value sorting, orders the column values either in ascending or descending order. It is performed by clicking the header of the column to be sorted.
Custom sorting
Arrange field headers in column and row axes according to the user-defined order.
Aggregation
Users can perform calculations on a group of values using the aggregation option. By default, values are added together. The other aggregation types are: average, minimum, maximum, count, distinct count, product, index, population standard deviation, sample standard deviation, population variance, sample variance, running totals, difference from, percent of difference from, and percent of grand total.
Calculated fields
Calculated or unbound fields generate unique fields with users’ calculated values by executing a simple, user-defined formula.
Drill through
The drillthrough feature easily obtains a list of raw items for a particular value cell or summary cell.
Totals
Subtotals and grand totals are calculated automatically by the pivot engine inside the control and displayed in the Pivot Table to help users make decisions more quickly. Also, users can show or hide subtotals and grand totals for rows and columns.
Conditional formatting
Users can define conditions that, when met, format font style, text color, background color, and font size for values and summary cells.
Number and date formatting
Number and date formatting help transform the appearance of the actual cell values.
Grouping dates and numbers
The Angular Pivot Table control automatically groups dates and numbers, so the date type can be formatted and displayed based on year, quarter, month, day, and more. The number type can be grouped by range, such as 1–5 or 6–10.
Frozen headers
Users can freeze row and column headers to compare them with cell values.
Columns and rows
Resize
Change the column width at runtime by simply dragging the rightmost boundary of the column header. A scroll bar will appear when the content width exceeds the control width.
Reorder
Users can reorder columns either through user interaction or programmatically. Simply dragging and dropping a column header into the desired column position will reorder the columns.
Hyperlinks
Users can add hyperlinked text to a cell to redirect to external resources. The control allows them to perform custom operations programmatically.
Tooltips
A tooltip provides basic information about a cell while hovering over it with the pointer.
Cell template
With cell templates, users can easily add features like images, checkboxes, and text nodes to any cell.
Toolbars
A toolbar enhances user interaction and provides access to frequently used features. These features include: new report, save report, save as report, rename report, delete report, report list, show grid, show chart, show or hide totals, export reports, and more.
Exporting
Export the Angular Pivot Table data to Excel, PDF, and CSV formats. Users can also customize the exported document by adding header, footer, and cell properties like type, style, and position programmatically.
Export to native Excel PivotTable
Users can export the Syncfusion Pivot Table directly to Microsoft Excel’s native PivotTable format, not just as a static table or flattened data. This ensures that all interactive features are preserved, allowing users to fully utilize Excel’s PivotTable functionalities.
Key advantages:
- Native Excel PivotTable: Exports to the actual PivotTable format used by Excel, preserving rows, columns, values, and filters.
- Fully interactive in Excel: Continue to sort, filter, expand and collapse groups, and modify field lists just like in your original pivot.
- Reusable layout: Save time by exporting your configured pivot layout for future use or easy sharing.
Optimized for mobile devices
Touch support
All features will work on touch devices easily. Features such as drilling up, drilling down, filtering, sorting, and report manipulation can be done on the fly.
Responsiveness
The responsive design allows the control to be viewed on various devices.
Accessibility
Keyboard navigation
The Pivot Table ensures that every cell is keyboard accessible. Major features like sorting, selection, and editing can be performed using keyboard commands alone; no mouse interaction is required. This helps create highly accessible applications using this component.
Right to left (RTL)
The Pivot Table supports RTL rendering, allowing the text and layout to be displayed from right to left.
Angular version compatibility
The Angular Pivot Table is kept up-to-date to make it compatible with the latest Angular version.
